1. Global Assemblages
Technology, Politics, and Ethics as Anthropological Problems
The book delves into the intricate and dynamic intersections of global processes and local realities, exploring how these interactions shape human experiences and societal structures. It examines the concept of "assemblages" as a framework to understand the fluid and contingent nature of globalization, highlighting how diverse actors, technologies, and institutions come together to create new forms of governance and social organization. Through a series of case studies, the book illustrates the complexities of global interconnections and the ways in which they influence cultural, economic, and political landscapes across different contexts.
