Description

Most disciplines in the social sciences and humanities attempt to identify the world using clear categories. This process is based on the idea of linear borders. Using the example of the Mediterranean Sea, this volume places the thought model of linearity within its historical, political, and cultural context by taking an ethnological perspective and contrasting it with the idea of borders as zones of transition.
