Privileged Mobilities: Professional Migration, Geo-Social Media, and a New Global Middle Class - Intersections in Communications and Culture
Erika Polson

Through ethnographic study, Erika Polson illustrates how, as a new generation of expatriates uses location technologies to create mobile "places," a new global middle class is emerging.
