The Globalization of American Infrastructure
The domestic transportation system of the United States has been "globalized" over the past few decades by the growing presence of the shipping container, and by the changes necessary to accommodate that object. This volume chronicles this process through a detailed and theoretically informed account of the impact of the shipping container on the American freight transportation system, arguing that globalization in this case is not a top-down process that imposes itself from above on national, regional or local scales, but instead transpires through a more nuanced dynamic whereby the nation-state, regions and local settings play a formative role.
