Geographical Pllaces In Transportation
Geographical Pllaces In Transportation

In the entanglement of practices, protagonists, techniques and infrastructures that enable mobility, transportation places play a crucial role. While transportation is often approached through the prism of networks, Geographical Places in Transportation invites us to shift our focus toward the places that link transportation and facilitate the movements of people, objects and materials. Through the myriad activities that unfold there, transportation places play an active role in the interdependencies that shape our daily lives. This book looks at transportation production and experience sites as places–processes, where a considerable proportion of society’s challenges and the habitability of territories are at stake: ecological transition; social inequalities; roles of minorities and living beings; access to employment and other resources; role of atmospheres and ambiances; commercial strategies and security concerns; expansion of digital capitalism; and relations with both the near and the distant.
