Rezensionen

'This excellent collection develops the timely concept of mobile sociality, which synthesises temporal, socio-spatial, and political economic approaches to the mediation of lived experience. The contributions provide nuanced and critical accounts of emergent forms of sociality without losing sight of their connection to deeply embedded structures of power, inequality and meaning. The book will no doubt become a key reference point for critical scholarship at the nexus of digital media and communications studies and cultural geography.'

Emily Keightley, University of Loughborough, UK

'Until very recently, it has been tempting to think that we live in an era that is defined by mobility: aspirations for a life beyond the here and now, imagined escapes from the ordinary. This substantial new collection reminds us of the many ways movement can be constrained as much as liberated. It shows the persistence with which people form meaningful connections in spite of distance. A book that consolidates and extends the field of mobile media studies globally.'
