Extrastatecraft
Keller Easterling
$19.95
Infrastructure is not only the underground pipes and wires that control our cities, but also the hidden rules that structure the spaces all around us: free trade zones, smart cities, suburbs and malls. Extrastatecraft shows how these create new forms of power, beyond the reach of government. In a series of fascinating case studies, Easterling visits fields of infrastructure with the greatest impact on our world--tracking everything from standards for the thinness of credit cards, to trade mobile telephony as the world's largest shared platform, to the rules for the free zone as the most contagious new world city paradigm. In conclusion, she proposes some unexpected techniques for exercising power in the contemporary world.
