The co-authors show that the question of where something is depends on how places are mutually connected and disconnected. The location of a place can be established by different logics, such as national borders, ecosystems, or economic zones. These different ways of classifying the relative value and significance of a place coexist and overlap: for example, national borders are regularly crosscut by ecosystems. By thinking of 'location' as a process defined by several different coexisting locating regimes, the book showcases a fresh way to think about the multiple and overlapping connections and disconnections between here and elsewhere. This approach can fundamentally revise ethnographic and anthropological views on the importance, value and significance of where people, things and animals are located and, as such, redefines the idea of 'the field.'\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe volume brings together seven anthropologists who have worked together for six years. The chapters take the reader through a series of journeys around the Mediterranean region-to North Africa, the East Mediterranean, and Southern Europe. Each chapter unfolds an ethnographic or historical account of the coexistence of different values and meanings of location in different places.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sarah Green, Samuli L?hteenaho, Phaedra Douzina-Bakalaki\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9523691007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789523691001\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Helsinki University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/28\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 298\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.88lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.62d","brand":"Sarah Green","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45898057154815,"sku":"9789523691001","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_29fb4fed-9e43-4e7a-98f6-d93143fb2b81.jpg?v=1721375398","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/an-anthropology-of-crosslocations-sarah-green-9789523691001","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
