The Routledge Handbook of Mobile Socialities

The Routledge Handbook of Mobile Socialities is a state-of-the-art survey of an emerging area of study in media, communication and cultural studies, mobility studies and mobile communications. 'Mobile socialities' demarcates a new area of research that captures people's various and contrary experiences of media in relation to their mobilities and socialities. All the chapters in the volume are specially commissioned and written by a range of international scholars working in this new area within media, communication and cultural studies and media anthropology. These scholars offer a comprehensive overview and source of inspiration for a diverse range of topics on the contingent practices and finite resources of people and media on the move. The Handbook is the first of its kind to establish mobile socialities as a new area of academic enquiry, with an intended readership of advanced undergraduate students and scholars across the disciplines of media, communication and cultural studies, anthropology, cultural geography, and sociology
