Description

Explore the deep connection between vehicles and society with Car Cultures (Materializing Culture) from Bloomsbury. This book challenges the idea that a car is just a way to get from point A to point B. Instead, it examines how cars shape human life through various cultural lenses across the globe. Readers will discover how cars trigger different emotions and social responses, from environmental guilt in the UK to the management of car corpses in aboriginal communities. The text also looks at the struggle to maintain vehicles in West Africa using unconventional spare parts. From individual passions like road rage to global crises, this book explores how cars and their landscapes are central to the human experience.
