Inter-disciplinary in approach, this collection of essays explores
Chinas reform era development within the concept of trans-locality.
A key element of spatial change in today's China has been the
unprecedented geographic mobility of millions of labor migrants,
tourists, brides, entrepreneurs, and many others. But
trans-locality doesn't just mean people. It is crucially
constituted by the circulation of capital, ideas, images, goods,
styles, services, disease to name but a few.
With contribution from well-respected China specialists, the essays
focus simultaneously on mobilites and localities, drawing our
attention to the multiplying forms of mobility in China whilst
retaining the importance of localities in peoples lives. The book
provides a clear path to understanding the importance of
trans-locality as a concept along with concrete examples of its
operation in China. Unique in approach, it is at once a study of
the connections between location and culture, politics, economics,
bodies, gender and technology.
