Description

Explore a new perspective on social theory with Sociology Beyond Societies: Mobilities for the Twenty-First Century. In this ground-breaking work, John Urry argues that traditional sociology, which focuses on the study of stable societies, is no longer sufficient for our modern, borderless world. To remain relevant in a post-societal era, the field must move past old social rigidities and look toward the study of movement. This book introduces the concept of a sociology of mobilities. It examines how people, ideas, images, messages, money, and even waste products move across international borders. By shifting the focus from static structures to physical and virtual movement, Urry provides a fresh framework for understanding the connections that define our contemporary global landscape. This text is an essential resource for students and scholars interested in how movement shapes the modern world.
