'Sarai Reader 06 uses "Turbulence" as a conceptual vantage point from which to interrogate all that is in the throes of terminal crisis, and to invoke all that is as yet unborn. It seek to examine 'turbulence' as a global phenomenon, unbounded by the arbitrary lines that denote national and state boundaries in a "political" map of the world. It wants to see areas of low and high pressure in politics, economy and culture that transcend borders, to investigate the flow of information and processes between downstream and upstream sites in societies and cultures globally.' - extracted from the Sarai website

Sarai Reader 06: Turbulence is part of the 'Documenta 12 Magazines Project'.
