| Sumario: | This book engages globalization in its complexity, one in which economy, politics, society, culture, environment, history, and technology combine to make places at multiple scales. Rooted theoretically in the work of Michel Serres and empirically in the Valtellina, a valley in the Italian Alps, it charts the efforts of a local nonprofit organization to inscribe the valley's terraced vineyards onto Unesco's World Heritage list, and the material and narrative transformations they undergo as a consequence. <br /> |
