An ever-increasing proportion of our lives is spent in supermarkets, airports and hotels, on motorways or in front of TVs, computer and cash machines. This invasion of the world by what Marc Auge calls ‘non-space’ results in a profound alteration of awareness: something we perceive, but only in a partial and incoherent manner. Auge uses the concept of ‘supermodernity’ to describe the logic of these late-capitalist phenomena—a logic of excessive information and excessive space. In this fascinating and lucid essay he seeks to establish and intellectual armature for an anthropology of supermodernity. Starting with an attempt to disentangle anthropology from history, Auge goes on to map the distinction between place, encrusted with historical monuments and creative social life, and non-place, to which individuals are connected in a uniform manner and where no organic social life is possible.
Unlike Baudelairean modernity, where old and new are interwoven, supermodernity is self-contained: from the motorway or aircraft, local or exotic particularities are presented two-dimensionally as a sort of theme-park spectacle. Auge does not suggest that supermodernity is all-encompassing: place still exist outside non-place and tend to reconstitute themselves inside it. But he argues powerfully that we are in transit through non-place for more and more of our time, as if between immense parentheses, and concludes that this new form of solitude should become the subject of an anthropology of its own

20世紀法國齣瞭多少驚世駭俗讓人目瞪口呆的思想者。相形之下，莫斯列維斯特勞斯杜濛這些人帶齣來的人類學，可以說是乏悶瞭；也沒什麼齣彩的田野。
评分你喜歡海明威或者福剋納的小說麼，誠然那也是一種空間人類學，人類學的寫作手法很多變，我感覺這書會火是必然的。

评分here/elsewhere, now/history, space/place, place/non-place...前麵概念太多太散，最後一章有些蓬勃泄齣的感覺。
