Book synopsis

This book is a detailed exploration and§analysis of the rise of a publishing genre (often consisting of linked article§and book publication) providing speculative, global, and comprehensive accounts of near term geopolitical trajectories. In exploring§these works from an Anthropological perspective, Hannerz focuses primarily on textual materials§- the books and articles themselves, ancillary publications by the same§authors, and their textual afterlives as evident in subsequent commentaries,§reviews, and, occasionally, debates. Such works clearly figure saliently and,§at times, consequentially in the shaping of public and policy discourses around§international relations, politics, and the ongoing explanation of emergent§global phenomena.§
