Italian Mobilities (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This edited volume presents a first-of-its-kind study of modern Italy as a mobile construct. It offers a critical accounting of the histories, power, and politics specific to Italian mobile practices, and reflects upon Italy's paradoxical status as both a space of transit and a signifier of heritage and fixity.
