englischLike other world regions, the ‘Middle East and North Africa’ is often regarded as a well-defined, closed and largely homogeneous area. However, it is actually a region that is subject to continuous reconfigurations and for which numerous denotations exist. At the same time, economic, cultural, social and political interrelationships and processes of exchange unfold in totally different regional contexts, which intersect with established spatial ideas, e.g. across the Indian Ocean, the Sahara and the Caucasus. Therefore, this volume promotes a transregional perspective on the circulation of goods, ideas and people, without being limited by fixed meta-geographies. In doing so, it makes its position clear in critical debates on space production and area studies and brings together research that academic knowledge production has customarily separated according to regions and disciplines.
