Book description:
This is a state-of-the-art survey of an emerging area of study in media, 
communication and cultural studies, mobility studies and mobile 
communications.

‘Mobile socialities’ demarcates a new area of research that captures 
people’s various and contrary experiences of media in relation to their 
mobilities and socialities. The chapters in this volume are written by a 
range of international scholars offering a comprehensive overview and 
source of inspiration for a diverse range of topics on the contingent 
practices and finite resources of people and media on the move. The book 
demonstrates through empirical and theoretical research how mobile 
socialities is a generative concept for thinking through power, identity 
and the contexts of media in public and mediated spaces, work and 
everyday life, addressing a spectrum of mobile socialities and lived 
politics. The research and various cases make visible previously hidden, 
or obscured, social practices and allow us to rethink the meanings of 
mobility, digital media or the home in these examples of people living 
within the centre and peripheries of society.

The Handbook establishes mobile socialities as a new area of academic 
enquiry, ideal for advanced undergraduate students and scholars across 
the disciplines of media, communication and cultural studies, 
anthropology, cultural geography and sociology.
