Description

Explore the deep connection between physical paths and human movement in Roads and Anthropology: Ethnography, Infrastructures, (Im)mobility. Published by Routledge, this work examines how roads act as more than just transit routes. They serve as the material foundation for both local life and global systems. While modern technology often feels virtual and fast, roads remain a fundamental part of our world. They connect the broad narratives of globalization to the specific material realities of different times and places. This book looks at how roads support the circulation of goods and information in our current society. By studying the relationship between mobility and infrastructure, this text provides a unique perspective on how physical networks shape our social and economic landscapes. It is a significant resource for those studying how material structures influence the way people and commodities move through the twenty-first century.
