Om The Transnational Middle East
The Transnational Middle East posits that the development of regional dynamics, processes and circulations of all kinds, can be documented. In this regard, the approaches it develops ¿ `bottom-up¿ regionalisation, `globalisation from below¿ ¿ allow for a better understanding of the ways in which the Middle East is part of global transformations. Based on fieldwork in the Middle East, the book provides venues for further theoretical elaboration on globalisation and contemporary societies, as well as on processes of regionalisation. It draws on the emergence of genuine regional spaces of culture, art, economic activity, human circulation ¿ which supplement and do not contradict ¿ and other infra-national, national, or global social processes.
