This book advances theoretical reflection on the concept of direction. It argues that direction is fundamental to humankind and that a clearer understanding of how it operates in late-modern societies is required. This, it is argued, is particularly so in an age of globalisation, social networking and mass media information that is often unanchored from place. The book unravels how directedness is a pivotal political and economic issue in contemporary capitalist societies and explores the socio-spatial implications.
