Today's Global Flâneuse offers a fresh analysis of the flâneuse on the 21st-century global stage, drawn from the perspectives of art history, mobility studies, sociology, and urban geography. The essays and artwork in this volume offer histories of Eurocentric 19th-century flânerie that still resonate in 21st-century transnational terms. This special issue also reveals the decisive impact of the flâneuse's practices beyond the strictly urban, extending into rural environs via the mega- and ex-urban, thus contributing to the continuing debate regarding the ever-narrowing urban/rural divide.
