Description
Breaking Boundaries: Varieties of Liminality explores the concept of liminality as a key to understanding transformation in a globalizing world. This fundamental human experience transmits cultural practices, codes, rituals, and meanings in situations between defined structures and with uncertain outcomes.
The book examines the methodological range and applicability of liminality through case studies of significant crises in history, society, and politics. By analyzing these examples, it sheds light on the concept's potential to address a variety of concrete social and political problems.
