Mediterranean in Dis/order reveals the connection between space and
politics by examining the role that space has played in
insurgencies, conflicts, uprisings, and mobilities in the
Mediterranean region. With this approach, the authors are able to
challenge well-established beliefs about the power structure of the
state across different disciplines (including political science,
history, sociology, geography, and anthropology), and its impact on
the conception, production, and imagination of space in the broader
Mediterranean. Further, they contribute to particular areas of
studies, such as migration, political Islam, mobilization, and
transition to democracy, among others. The book, infusing critical
theory, unveils original and revelatory case studies in Tunisia,
Libya, Lebanon, Turkey, Syria, Morocco, and the EU Mediterranean
policy, through a various set of actors and practices—from
refugees and migrations policies, to Islamist or students’
movements, architectural sites, or movies. This multidisciplinary
perspective on space and power provides a valuable resource for
practitioners interested in how space, context, and time interact
to produce institutions, political subjectivities, and asymmetries
of power, particularly since the turning point of the Arab
uprisings. The book also helps readers understand the conditions
under which the uprisings develop, giving a clearer picture about
various national, regional, and international dynamics.
