Abstract
|
:
|
Mobility is one of the basic principles of modernity. This book is a foray into the exciting new field of interdisciplinary mobility research informed by theoretical reflection and empirical investigation. It presents a movement that begins with the macro-social transformations linked to mobility, concluding with empirical discussions on the new forms of mobility and their implications for everyday life.
