Ce livre éclaire la place de l’Union postale universelle dans l’histoire des communications globales, depuis sa fondation en 1874. Les contributions d’une vingtaine de spécialistes expliquent comment elle a permis aux postes de former la plus vaste infrastructure physique planétaire de l’histoire, canalisant jusqu’à la fin du 20e siècle l’essentiel des flux d’information, d’argent et de marchandises légères à travers les frontières et faisant collectivement face aux défis de la numérisation, de la concurrence et de la décarbonation depuis le début du 21e siècle.
This book sheds light on the Universal Postal Union’s place in the history of global communications, since its foundation in 1874. More than 20 international contributors help us to understand how postal networks get to form the largest planetary physical infrastructure in history, channeling the bulk of information, money and light goods flows across the borders until the end of the 20th century, and collectively facing the challenges of digitization, competition and decarbonization since the beginning of the 21st century.
