NOMINATED AND SHORT LISTED FOR THE SURVEILLANCE STUDIES BOOK
PRIZE 2011!
This theoretically informed research explores what the
development and transformation of air travel has meant for
societies and individuals.
* Brings together a number of interdisciplinary approaches
towards the aeroplane and its relation to society
* Presents an original theory that our societies are aerial
societies, or 'aerealities', and shows how we are both enabled and
threatened by aerial mobility
* Features a series of detailed international case studies which
map the history of aviation over the past century - from the
promises of early flight, to World War II bombing campaigns, and to
the rise of international terrorism today
* Demonstrates the transformational capacity of air transport to
shape societies, bodies and individual identities
* Offers startling historical evidence and bold new ideas about
how the social and material spaces of the aeroplane are considered
in the modern era
