Mobility and interlinkage: the transformation and new approaches for anthropological research

Mobility and interlinkage have become the most important characteristics of our time. The mobility and interlinkage of people, material and information constitute the way and rules of the operation of today’s world. Internet links, cloud computing, complex database and human computation have changed the way people relate to the world, thus the anthropology for understanding and interpretation of human cultures have changed correspondingly. Cultures in the state of mobility and interlinkage, such as spatial changes, the evolution of interpersonal relationships and the new cultural order, have become a new subject.
