This volume explores how mechanisms of postindustrial capitalism
affect places and people in peripheral regions and
de-industrializing cities. While studies of globalization tend to
emphasize localities newly connected to global systems, this
collection, in contrast, analyzes the disconnection of communities
away from the market, presenting a range of ethnographic case
studies that scrutinize the framework of this transformative
process, analyzing new social formations that are emerging in the
voids left behind by the de-industrialization, and introducing a
discussion on the potential impacts of the current economic and
ecological crises on the hyper-mobile model that has characterized
this recent phase of global capitalism and spatially uneven
development.
