Various measures to mitigate the spread of COVID-19 have altered mobility flows worldwide and caused people to adopt new ways of being and moving in public space. These changes have been considerably pronounced across modes of public transportation. This paper explores the experiences of individuals who continued riding and working in public transport throughout the pandemic to yield insight into changing mobility meanings and grounded realities of urban mobility processes in the context of COVID-19 and beyond. Through the combined analysis of ethnographic fieldwork, participant observations and interviews, the paper unpacks lived experiences of riding and working in public transport in the city of Amsterdam during lockdown by addressing the changed nature of embodied encounters and mobile sociability in public transit. Findings denote that COVID-19 has altered the conditions of mobile sociability in spaces of public transport, and has produced complex experiences of daily travel with others involving mutually negative and positive impressions. As a result, we argue that when challenged by COVID-19 related restrictions, mobile sociability and fleeting encounters on the move significantly shape the experience of traveling with others in ways that call into question how we think of public transport as a social space in cities.

This article delves into the everyday dynamics of colonial rule to outline a novel way of understanding colonized–colonizer interactions. It conceives colonial management as a social field in which both the colonized and colonizers negotiate and exchange resources, despite their decidedly unequal positions within a racial hierarchy. Drawing their example from the West Bank, the authors argue that a Palestinian economic elite has proactively participated in the co-production of the colonial management of spatial mobility, a central component of Israeli colonial rule. The study employs interviews and document analysis to investigate how the nexus between Palestine's commercial-logistical needs and Israel's security complex induced large-scale Palestinian producers to exert agency and reorder commercial mobility. The authors describe and explain the evolution of a 'Door-to-Door' logistical arrangement, in which large-scale Palestinian traders participate in extending Israeli's system of spatial control in exchange for facilitating logistical mobility. This horizontal social encounter that entails pay-offs is conditioned, but not fully determined, by vertical relations of domination and subordination. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

PRESCHOOL children , *CITIZENSHIP , *PRESCHOOLS - Abstract
Using the case of the mobile preschool we focus on how children's prosthetic citizenship is constructed in relation to notions of mobility and place in the accounts of Swedish mobile preschool professionals. Mobile preschools are preschools in buses that visit different places in and around the city on an everyday basis. Analysis of interviews and workshop discussions with mobile preschool professionals shows how three different conceptualisations of children's 'proper' citizenship operate in parallel in these accounts – children as 'not-yet-citizens', children as 'not-here-citizens' and children as 'here-and-now-citizens'. These different conceptualisations are constructed in relation to the everyday mobility of the mobile preschool and notions of places as more or less beneficial for children's proper future and Swedish citizenship, and reveal how mobility is not only a consequence of citizenship relations but also constitutive of them. This paper contributes to knowledge on how mobility and notions of place constitute ideas on citizenship, and how forms and geographies of mobility produce subjects as more or less citizen.

Research on mental health geographies and housing has focused on pattern and distribution, rather than social and cultural constructions of home. Here we attempt to understand meanings and roles of home for individuals with mental illness in the UK within the context of a deep-seated housing crisis. The discussion is sharpened by the notion of the ambiguous home, ranging from a place for retreat, separation or even isolation from the world, with experiences of recovery, stability or wellness, to home as something more negative, in which distress or illness flourished, and in which people became entrapped or from which they sought relief. Three themes crosscut this range of experiences: home as material object; home as relational; and home as rhythm. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This study critically examines how development interventions are imagined for singular places and subjects through a political process of product scripting that reconfigures the socio-technical meaning of second-hand objects from unwanted commodities to solutions that are appropriate for sub-Saharan Africa. Tracing the flow of second-hand goods demonstrates how development subjects are imagined to be adult, economically productive, rural beings. The paper finds that the second-hand mountain bicycle is inserted into an imagined place with a predetermined purpose that does not attend to alternative and heterogeneous urban and rural identities and needs. The paper highlights the compromises undertaken in designing development interventions as they are entangled with processes of waste recycling, commodification and philanthropy.

This article examines the narratives of two Venezuelan migrants who have engaged in multi-stage migration practices in order to optimise their long-term living options in Australia. I show how they deploy a range of tactics to negotiate risk and uncertainty under the spatial, temporal and institutional conditions of temporary migration programs by moving to regional areas, drawing on friendship networks and continuously responding to shifting immigration policy. I argue that time spent on temporary visas is actively and intentionally used by migrants in order to create future migration possibilities and security for themselves in contexts where migration outcomes can be unpredictable. As temporary migrants they are subject to policies designed to meet the needs of global capital and skills shortages but they are also reasoning individuals who tactically pursue opportunities, put down roots and continually evaluate and readjust their plans and fall back positions, even within a relatively limited range of choices.

Unjustified parking in parking spaces reserved for disabled people is a social phenomenon that reflects characteristics and attitudes concerning solidarity, morality, social norms and values. Disabled people's entitlement to specific parking spaces stems from the general right to mobility, independence, self-realisation and autonomy. In research conducted in the capital city of Slovenia, observers monitored 72 parking spaces reserved for disabled people (on-street spaces, in shopping and health centres). Among all uses of these spaces 63.1% were violations, although in some locations this share exceeded 90%, and 29.3% of violations occurred while at least one unoccupied non-reserved space was available in the near vicinity. The violators parked their vehicles for a short time, with half remaining in or close to the car. Formal social control is closely connected with the domination of an organic type of solidarity. Yet, this research shows it has clear limitations. In just 12 hours of observing reserved parking spaces, the researchers managed to note down the equivalent of 38.5% of the total violations processed annually by municipal wardens. Although the research focuses on one specific issue of solidarity, its implications resound beyond this particular case and suggest broader societal reasons for changes in solidarity.

Recent socio-political situations in the Middle East and elsewhere have resulted in a large number of refugees searching for new places to settle. To understand how a new place could become a home, the authors conducted qualitative research in the Netherlands. The study looked at the home experiences and (micro)homemaking practices of young Syrian refugees in an innovative housing project in Amsterdam. In this project, Dutch and Syrian young adults are housed together to foster integration. This article also looks at Boccagni's model for understanding immigrant live-in workers' homes. The authors further develop the model by introducing a mobility lens, which offers the possibility of elaborating on theoretical notions between now-and-then and here-and-there and the empirical findings derived from this study.

The banality of movement and the fascination with mobility meet at the very locations of arrival and departure. This contribution highlights social practices within and discourses about train stations which are interpreted as constitutive moments in the production of gender, sexuality and space. Train stations host the crossing between different spatial and social contexts, the negotiation of scales and between life cycles. Focusing on the historical moment of the early twentieth century we look at Swiss train stations as sites of heightened public concern which served to implement regulatory instruments to govern the social order of modernity. Narratives of the city as danger delineated train stations as critical turning points in the life-journey of young people, particularly for 'impressionable' young women. What is of interest here is how sexualities are discursively and metaphorically constructed and governed by social purity groups within the train station at the turn of the century. The way in which Station Assistance agents 'received', counselled and controlled the arrival of young people in the cities contributed to reiterating and (re)constructing gender and sexuality beyond national boundaries. The resulting protective and prescriptive constructions of sexuality reveal much about the complex perceptions and regulations of rural and urban sexualities and gender systems in their spatial nexus.

In the last few decades, the discovery of large ditched enclosures in Iberia has revealed the diversity and complexity of deposition and manipulation of human bone remains. Alongside traditional ritual burials (mainly megalithic tombs and hypogea), fragmented and scattered human bones mixed with other kinds of material culture began to appear in many features. This is the case for Ditch 5 at Marroquíes, which offers an excellent opportunity to explore this ritual behaviour. Based on a multi-proxy approach, three main conclusions can be drawn: 1) the skeletal elements present show deliberate selection of particular categories of bones; 2) depositional episodes included the remains of people who died at different points in time and were subject to different taphonomic processes, and 3) mobility patterns indicate that all individuals, with one possible exception, were local. The movement and manipulations of body parts may reflect the active role of people after death as social and symbolic elements that retain agency and capacity for action. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Recent debates in social and cultural geography on the inclusionary/exclusionary nature of space have brought our attention to the 'everywhere different' nature of racism across cities. Among these debates have been calls to interrogate the socio-spatial dimensions of new forms of racism, like Islamophobia as they evolve. This paper draws on the findings of an online survey conducted from September 2016 to April 2017 with young Muslim American residents of the Bay Area, California. It provides empirical material on the way young Muslims map 'the geography of Islamophobia' across this region to uncover how the racialization of Muslims has translated into perceptions of racism across city spaces. The findings indicate that Islamophobia occurs in various public spheres, particularly on public transport and in airports. There is a spatial concentration of Islamophobic spaces in the Bay Area, focussed in the North and Outer-East Bay regions – relatively rural parts of the region with a less significant Muslim population. Conversely, areas with larger Muslim populations were associated with lower levels of perceived Islamophobia. This paper highlights the need for more localised, socio-spatial engagements in racism that capture the evolving nature of the American racisms, and how they are spatialised across cities.

REFLEXIVITY , *RURALITY , *LONGITUDINAL method - Abstract
Studies of rural areas have necessarily been occupied by discussions of migration, the experience of which is often concentrated among young adults in the years immediately following the end of secondary education. This dynamic has been attributed to a mobility imperative that equates leaving rural areas for the opportunities offered by urban centres with success, and staying in rural areas with failure. This article interrogates the distinction between those who leave rural areas and those who stay, drawing on life-course research that contextualises the post-secondary mobility imperative within individuals' wider biographies in order to challenge claims that mobility is associated with the development of personal resources that lie outside the reach of those who are not mobile. The article presents data taken from a 20-year longitudinal panel study of individuals' post-school pathways, drawing specifically on interviews conducted with participants who grew up in rural areas. By focusing on the significance of relational considerations, the authors contend that the mobility decision-making process results in the development of reflexivity about one's mobility irrespective of its outcome.

Au début de la période moderne, la mobilité est perçue, du moins dans les traités composés en Afrique du Nord et dans la péninsule Ibérique, comme une grave menace pour l’intégrité physique des voyageurs. Au-delà de ces textes prescriptifs, comment cet enjeu de la santé pendant le voyage se traduit-il dans la pratique pour les marchands, exilés, ambassadeurs, marins et religieux qui traversent la Méditerranée de façon occasionnelle comme habituelle aux XVIe et XVIIe siècles ? En superposant quatre corpus documentaires distincts, cet article explore la possibilité d’écrire l’histoire de ces pratiques itinérantes et d’en délimiter les zones d’ombres. À travers cette réflexion méthodologique, il s’agit d’explorer comment les matérialités, les corps et l’altérité sont enregistrés et mis en écriture dans la Méditerranée moderne. A principios de la Edad Moderna, la movilidad se considera, al menos en los tratados redactados en el norte de África y la Península Ibérica, una grave amenaza para la integridad física de los viajeros. Más allá de estos textos prescriptivos, ¿cómo se tradujo en la práctica la cuestión de la salud durante el viaje para los mercaderes, exiliados, embajadores, marineros y clérigos que cruzaban el Mediterráneo de forma ocasional o habitual en los siglos XVI y XVII? Al superponer cuatro corpus documentales distintos, este artículo explora la posibilidad de escribir la historia de estas prácticas itinerantes. A través de esta reflexión metodológica, se trata de explorar cómo se registran y se ponen por escrito las materialidades, los cuerpos y la alteridad en el Mediterráneo moderno. At the beginning of the early modern period, mobility was perceived, at least in the treaties composed in North Africa and the Iberian Peninsula, as a serious threat to the physical integrity of travellers. Beyond these prescriptive texts, how was the issue of health during the voyage translated into practice for merchants, exiles, ambassadors, sailors, and clerics who crossed the Mediterranean occasionally or habitually in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries? By superimposing four distinct documentary corpuses, this article interrogates the possibility of writing the history of these itinerant practices. Through this methodological reflection, it aims to explore how materialities, bodies, and alterity were recorded and put into writing in the early modern Mediterranean.

Comment mettre les patrimoines culturels rendus temporairement ou définitivement inaccessibles à disposition des publics immobilisés ou distants, pour répondre à leur demande de culture ? Les technologies de l’information et de la communication offrent des réponses instrumentées à ce nouveau défi. Ce type de ressource promeut les mobilités informationnelles en substitution aux mobilités réelles.Après une première partie consacrée à l’introduction du concept de mobilité informationnelle et une revue rapide des solutions existantes, la suite de l’article envisage des dispositifs qui dépassent la simple transposition d’une accessibilité physique empêchée. C’est le cas de la survivance de certains patrimoines, notamment immatériels, au-delà de la disparition de leurs témoins, lorsque la rencontre physique est devenue impossible pour cause de décès.La deuxième partie de l’article traite ainsi du cas du témoignage historique, et l’illustre à travers le dispositif holographique mis en œuvre aux États-Unis pour les témoins de la Shoah. Ce dispositif a été transposé au témoignage des survivants de la mine dans le cadre de l’ANR MémoMines qui fait l’objet de la troisième partie. Ce dernier contexte a permis une étude expérimentale auprès des publics. Dépassant la simple réponse technique à la question initiale, cette étude exploratoire donne des pistes sur la façon dont l’expérience de mobilité informationnelle temporelle est vécue, appréciée par les publics. How can inaccessible cultural heritage be made available to immobile or distant audiences, to meet their cultural needs? Information and communication technologies offer instrumental responses to this new challenge. This type of resource promotes informational mobility as a substitute for real mobility.After introducing the concept of informational mobility and quickly reviewing existing solutions, the body of the article considers digital devices that do more than simply transpose a situation marked by physical inaccessibility. This is the case for the survival of certain heritages, notably immaterial, confronted with the impossibility of physical encounter due to the disappearance or death of their witnesses.The second part of the article addresses historical testimony, and illustrates it using the example of a holographic device implemented in the United States for witnesses to the Shoah. The same device was used to record and share the testimony of mine survivors in the framework of the ANR MémoMines, the subject of the third part of the article. This latter context allowed an experimental study with the public. Beyond providing a simple technical answer to the initial question, this exploratory study provides clues as to how the experience of temporal informational mobility is experienced/appreciated by the public. ¿Cómo hacer que el patrimonio cultural temporalmente inaccesible sea puesto a disposición de públicos inmovilizados o distantes, para así satisfacer su demanda de cultura? Las tecnologías de la información y la comunicación pueden ofrecer respuestas instrumentales a este nuevo reto. Este tipo de recurso promueve la movilidad informacional como sustituto de la movilidad real.Tras una la introducción del concepto de movilidad informacional y un rápido repaso de las soluciones existentes, el artículo analiza los dispositivos que van más allá de la simple transposición de una accesibilidad física impedida. Es el caso de la subsistencia de ciertos patrimonios, sobre todo inmateriales, después de la desaparición de sus testigos, cuando el encuentro físico se ha hace imposible por la muerte de dichos testigos.La segunda parte del artículo aborda el caso del testimonio histórico y lo ilustra a través del dispositivo holográfico realizado en Estados Unidos para los testigos de la Shoah. La tercera parte se refiere a la trasposición del anterior dispositivo al testimonio de sobrevivientes de las minas, en el el marco del proyecto ANR MémoMines. Este último contexto permitió realizar un estudio experimental con el público. Más allá de la simple respuesta técnica a la pregunta inicial, este estudio exploratorio ofrece pistas de investigación sobre cómo el público experimenta/aprecia la experiencia de la movilidad informacional temporal.

Cet article vise à mettre en lumière le rôle des autorités publiques et leurs approches de gouvernance dans le développement de MaaS (Mobility as a Service) – des plateformes multimodales facilitant les déplacements. Une revue des publications permet de distinguer quatre approches de gouvernance de la part des autorités publiques : la gouvernance par l’autorité, par la facilitation, par l’action et par laisser-faire . Les résultats révèlent que l’approche de gouvernance adoptée par les autorités publiques dépend du contexte réglementaire qui définit leurs compétences et leur marge de manœuvre. L’implication des autorités publiques dans le développement du MaaS varie entre échelles administratives ainsi qu’entre pays. La revente des tickets de transports en commun, la sélection des services de mobilité inclus dans un MaaS ainsi que la couverture géographique soulèvent des divergences entre les différents acteurs et remettent en cause les objectifs prometteurs associés à la diffusion de l’outil MaaS. This article aims to highlight the role of public authorities and their governance approach in the development of MaaS (Mobility as a Service) - multimodal mobility platforms. A scientific literature review provides insights into four governance approaches: governing by authority, governing by enabling, governing by doing and a laissez-faire approach. The results reveal that governance approaches by public authorities depend on the regulatory framework defining their competences and capacities to intervene. Public engagement varies according to administrative hierarchy as well as between countries. The resale of public transportation tickets, the selection of mobility services included in the MaaS and geographic service coverage create diverging positions among actors and question the promising goals associated with MaaS development. Este artículo tiene como objetivo estudiar el papel de las autoridades públicas y sus enfoques de buena gobernanza en proyectos de MaaS (Mobility as a Service) – plataformas multimodales que facilitan los desplazamientos. Una revisión de las publicaciones permite distinguir cuatro tipos de gobernanza adoptado por las autoridades públicas: la gobernanza mediante la autoridad, por la facilitación, por la acción, y por el “laissez faire”. Los resultados muestran que el enfoque de buena gobernanza adoptada por las autoridades públicas depende del contexto normativo que establece sus competencias y su margen de maniobra. El grado de implicación de las autoridades públicas en el desarrollo de los MaaS varía según los ámbitos administrativos, así como entre países. La venta de los billetes de transporte público, la selección de los servicios de movilidad incluidos en un MaaS así como la cobertura geográfica plantean divergencias entre los actores implicados y cuestionan los prometedores objetivos asociados a la difusión de las herramientas MaaS.

La mobilité est un élément essentiel de l’épanouissement de l’humain et du développement d’un pays. L’Afrique, dont la population est très jeune et donc encline à plus de mobilité, se caractérise par une faible infrastructure routière, ferroviaire, fluviale et aérienne. L’intelligence artificielle est envisagée dans ce travail non comme une solution miracle, mais comme un nouveau champ d’investigation susceptible d’avoir un impact significatif sur la mobilité en Afrique. C’est en cela qu’il est intéressant de voir comment des développeurs informatiques se saisissent de cette technologie pour tenter de résoudre les problèmes liés au transport et à la mobilité en général. Nous avons fait appel au concept de mobilité intelligente dans un contexte marqué par la mise en place de solutions technologiques simples et efficaces sans manquer d’apprécier les concours de l’environnement technologique et socioéconomique de développement de l’intelligence artificielle en Afrique. La boucle de rétroaction des défis locaux observés révèle la complexité de l’acclimatation des inventions qui deviennent des innovations en Afrique. Une enquête de terrain permet de voir l’ingéniosité embarquée par les applications de mobilité en cours d’usage. Elle soulève l’impératif de la maîtrise de l’analyse et de la gestion des données massives et ouvertes dans un environnement en manque de capacités de stockage des données à manipuler à l’ère de l’intelligence artificielle. Mobility is essential to human development and the development of a country. Africa, whose population is very young and therefore inclined to more mobility, is characterized by weak road, rail, river and air infrastructures. Our work regards artificial intelligence, not as a miracle solution, but as a new field of investigation likely to have a significant impact on mobility in Africa. This is why it is interesting to examine how IT developers are using this technology to try to solve problems related to transportation and mobility in general. We use the concept of intelligent mobility to characterize the implementation of simple and effective technological solutions within the technological and socio-economic environment for the development of artificial intelligence in Africa. The feedback loop of local challenges observed reveals the complexity of adjusting to inventions that become innovations in Africa. A field survey allows us to see the number of ingenious uses of mobility applications. This highlights the critical importance of mastering the analysis and management of big, open data in an environment lacking in data storage capacity in the era of artificial intelligence. La movilidad es un elemento esencial del desarrollo humano y del desarrollo de un país. África, cuya población es muy joven y por lo tanto proclive a una mayor movilidad, se caracteriza por una débil infraestructura vial, ferroviaria, fluvial y aérea. En este trabajo, la inteligencia artificial se considera no como una solución milagrosa, sino como un nuevo campo de investigación que probablemente tendrá un impacto significativo en la movilidad en África. Por eso es interesante ver cómo los desarrolladores informáticos están utilizando la inteligencia artificial para tratar de resolver problemas relacionados con el transporte y la movilidad en general. Hemos apelado al concepto de movilidad inteligente, en un contexto marcado por la implantación de soluciones tecnológicas sencillas y eficaces ; sin dejar de analizar la contribución del entorno tecnológico y socioeconómico para el desarrollo de la inteligencia artificial en África. El ciclo de retroalimentación de los desafíos locales observados revela la complejidad del proceso en que los inventos se convierten en innovaciones, en África. Una investigación de campo permite observar el ingenio presente en las aplicaciones de movilidad en uso. Se plantea la necesidad de dominar el análisis y gestión de datos masivos y abiertos en un entorno carente de capacidad de almacenamiento de datos para ser analizados en la era de la inteligencia artificial.

This article examines two examples of radio mobilities having political and cultural impact, as well as distinctive and exceptional sound productions whose circulation conjoined France and the United States via radio: thanks to recorded discs and audio tapes; representatives of U.S. and French broadcasting (and sometimes both) moving back and forth between locations in Paris and New York; and also, program directors around the United States who were responsible bringing international programs to American ears. This paper also shows how the mobility of these programs, how these exchanges were technically possible, notably thanks to cycling. Cet article explore deux exemples de mobilités radiophoniques ayant eu un impact politique et culturel, avec des productions sonores singulières et exceptionnelles, dont la circulation a rapproché la France et les États-Unis via la radio : grâce à des disques enregistrés et cassettes audio; des représentants de la radiodiffusion américaine et française (et parfois des deux) faisant des allers-retours entre Paris et New York; des directeurs d'émissions aux États-Unis chargés de faire découvrir des émissions internationales aux américains. Ce papier montre aussi comment la mobilité de ces programmes, comment ces échanges ont été possible techniquement, notamment grâce au cyclisme. Este artículo explora dos ejemplos de radiomovilidades que habian un impacto político y cultural, así como producciones sonoras singulares y excepcionales cuya circulación ha acercado a Francia y los Estados Unidos, unidos por radio: gracias a discos grabados y casetes de audio; representantes de la radiodifusión americana y francesa (ya veces de ambas) que van y vienen entre París y New York; directores de programas en los Estados Unidos responsables de presentar a los americanos los programas internacionales. Este artículo también muestra cómo la movilidad de estos programas, como estos intercambios, fue técnicamente posible, notablemente gracias a la bicicleta.

Bouger d’une région à une autre, changer d’organisation, accepter de nouvelles responsabilités : si la mobilité des fonctionnaires est une exigence ancienne, elle est depuis vingt ans plus diversifiée et plus fréquente. Cet article interroge cette transformation des normes de carrière dans la fonction publique et ses effets en termes d’inégalités de parcours. Comment l’exigence de mobilité est-elle intériorisée par les agent·es ? Quel·les sont les agent·es les plus susceptibles de la constituer en ressource ? L’article s’appuie sur les résultats d’une enquête collective menée auprès des cadres supérieurs de l’administration culturelle. L’argumentation montre d’abord comment la mobilité est érigée en norme, puis comment elle contribue à construire des écarts entre généralistes et spécialistes, entre modèles familiaux et entre statuts d’emploi, écarts qui sont systématiquement défavorables aux carrières des femmes. Moving from one region to another, changing organisations, taking on new responsibilities: while mobility for civil servants is a long-standing requirement, it has become more diverse and frequent over the last twenty years. This article examines the transformation of career norms in the public sector and its effects in terms of career inequalities. How is the mobility requirement internalised by civil servants? Which ones are most likely to use it as a resource? The article is based on the results of a collective survey conducted among senior cultural administrators. The argument first shows how mobility is set up as a norm, then how it contributes to the construction of career gaps between generalists and specialists, between family models and between employment statuses, gaps that are systematically unfavourable to women's careers. Moverse de una región a otra, cambiar de organización, aceptar nuevas responsabilidades: si la movilidad de los funcionarios es una antigua exigencia, desde hace veinte años está más diversificada y es más frecuente. Este artículo cuestiona la transformación de las normas de carrera en la función pública y sus efectos en términos de desigualdades de trayectoria. ¿Cómo los/las funcionarios/as han interiorizado la exigencia de movilidad? ¿Quiénes son los(las) más propensos(as) a constituirla como recurso? El artículo se basa en los resultados de una investigación colectiva llevada a cabo con los directivos de la administración cultural. En primer lugar, la argumentación muestra de qué manera la movilidad se erige en norma; en segundo lugar, de qué manera contribuye a construir disparidades entre generalistas y especialistas, entre modelos familiares y entre estatus de empleo, disparidades que son sistemáticamente desfavorables en las carreras de las mujeres.

NARRATIVES , *HIGHER education - Abstract
This article explores how senses of belonging, place, and mobility are linked to each other in the context of rapid socio-political change and human mobility. Using the sociological concept of place-belongingness, the article examines narratives of belonging among young people from Crimea who moved to Moscow to pursue higher education in the two years following Russia's 2014 annexation of the peninsula. Drawing on 38 biographical interviews conducted in Moscow with young people from Crimea, the article demonstrates how 'movements of borders across people' (to build on Rogers Brubaker's expression) result in a non-binary construction of belonging across places, based on the access an individual has to constellations of resources different places offer. The analysis shows that narratives of belonging among young people from Crimea revolve around resource categories that include economic resources, emotional resources, resources that reconcile multiple identities, and ontological security resources. This study moves beyond analysis of identities as linked to nation-building in the post-Soviet space, focusing on categories of 'place' emerging from the perspectives of study participants.

Everyday experiences of movement have become a central concern for social and cultural geography in recent years. Work here has begun to unpack the specific meanings, imaginaries and experiences that come to be bound up with mobile bodies and their practices. However, it has been suggested that more could be done to examine the material, elementary, molecular and physical aspects of movement which are significant to the experience of being on the move. Therefore, this paper explores the experience of cycling amid such turbulent 'elemental' materialities. Such 'matters' matter to cycling in the way that they (re)make both mobile environments and mobile subjectivities. Cyclists come to have quite immediate and intimate relationships with the material and 'elementary' aspects of the environments they move through given their relatively unmediated encounters with them. This paper draws on video-interview based research with 24 commuter cyclists in Plymouth, UK to consider cyclists' experience of atmospheric conditions in terms of air's force and air quality. From this, the paper reflects on how the experience of such 'elemental' matters might be significant to future research on and planning for cycling. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

INTERREGIONALISM , *TRANSPORTATION , *SOCIAL mobility , *RESIDENTS , *QUALITATIVE research - Abstract
Recent years have seen the Israeli state investing considerable efforts in the alleviation of unprecedentedly high inter-regional inequalities. Improved transportation networks intended to better connect peripheral residents to centrally located opportunities have been at the heart of this policy known as 'periphery cancellation'. In this article, we study strategies deployed by young peripherals as they engage with the statist call for enhanced mobility between regions. Drawing on qualitative research conducted at 'A Center for the Young' in a small town in the predominantly rural Upper Galilee, we examine the extent to which young adults negotiate the recent state-led mobility turn. Taking a critical nobilities approach, we argue that statist aspirations of mobilizing peripherals to central hubs collide with socio-spatial constraints faced by many young residents. The official call for mobility is frequently met by a sense of spatial (im)mobility articulated by young agents who deploy instead alternative strategies to achieve socio-spatial mobility. Termed refusal, circulation, and refuge, these strategies draw on notions of peripheral stagnation, attributed to both state policies that have long marginalized the area as well as rooted conventions about the social and cultural inertia of peripheral residents. These strategies, we contend, widen existing inequalities between central haves and peripheral have nots while solidifying a sense of socio-spatial disenfranchisement among many of its young inhabitants.

MUSICIANS , *MUSIC , *CULTURE - Abstract
This paper brings a new perspective to music geography by focusing on how a particular mainstream musician helped to construct, subvert, and circulate meanings associated with travel. It asserts that Frank Sinatra, via his music and actions, engaged with travel in ways that frequently ran counter to how it has commonly been enacted in American music and popular culture. Particular attention is paid to the singer's travel-themed album, Come Fly With Me. By the time of its release in 1958, Sinatra, via a public persona that encompassed performer, 'playboy' and businessman, was a central figure in promoting an alignment of leisured mobility with postwar economic success. The paper interrogates how Sinatra's celebrity allowed him to embody travel in certain real and imagined ways. It also examines what the resulting representations revealed about performances of gender, ethnicity, and status, and the expected modes of behavior that were associated with them, in America's postwar consumer-driven society.

This article analyses how people in Guliston, southern Tajikistan, conceive of 'waiting' both for labour-migrants to return from Russia, and to realise the projects that these migrants and their families envision. In Guliston people talk about two contradictory forms of waiting: on the one hand, they associate waiting with sitting and doing nothing; on the other, they equally emphasise the active roles they play to keep their village full of vitality while they wait for their migrant-relatives to return. Stressing the interdependencies between temporality and mobility, and the experiences of time and place by those who stay in their villages and those who migrate, this article argues that people in Guliston practise 'waiting' as active and creative processes that figure prominently in their production of specific forms of sociality and community, and their village as a dynamic place at the centre of a circulation of caregiving.

Tehran's subway, the most affordable means of public transportation in the city, offers a useful context to study the relationship between women's spatial mobility, the construction of self, and social production of space. This study focuses on Line 1 of Tehran's subway that connects Tehran's Bala Shahr (Northern Tehran) and Paeen Shahr (Southern Tehran) neighborhoods. This study draws upon 46 semi-structured interviews with women who were using subway Line 1 in the fall and winter of 2012. The average hour-long interviews examine how women's emotional states as well as their perceptions of self and space vary as they traverse the city on Line 1. Representing a cultural as well as a spatial transect through the city, the perceptions of women on subway's Line 1 convey the repudiation of the state's attempt to promote a singular Muslim female identity. The findings suggest that similar to women's perception of space, their gendered identities are constantly changing through the enhanced mobility that is facilitated by Tehran's subway system. In contrast to what is presumed in the West, with a simple change in their hijab style or make-up, Iranian women innovatively negotiate contrasting spaces. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Au cours des années 1970, les radios libres ont transformé en profondeur le paysage radiophonique italien. Les nouvelles stations ont innové en terme de mobilité, tant du point de vue de la production que de l'écoute des contenus. Les radios démocratiques militantes sont celles qui, en devenant les porte-parole des mouvements de lutte, proposent une transformation de l'information radiophonique. De Radio Popolare à Radio Città Futura, de Radio Radicale à Radio Alice, les radios démocratiques ont définitivement changé le rapport entre mobilité et radio en Italie. Après la fin de l'ère des radios libres, avec l'arrivée des webradios, ce sera Radio Gap, un réseau composé de sept stations et d'une agence de presse pour informer sur les journées et le G8 à Gênes en 2001, à recevoir le témoin des radios démocratiques des années soixante-dix, comme expression d'un désir d'information devenu mondial grâce à l'utilisation du Web. During the 1970s, free radios transformed the Italian radio landscape. The new stations innovate in relation to mobility both from the point of view of production and listening to contents. Militant democratic radio stations are the ones that become expression of fighting movements propose a transformation of radio information. From Radio Popolare to Radio City Futura, from Radio Radical to Radio Alice, democratic radios permanently changed the relationship between mobility and radio in Italy. After the end of the era of free radio, with the arrival of the Internet and web radio will be Radio Gap, a network consisting of seven stations and a news agency to inform about the days and the G8 of Genoa in 2001, to collect the baton of the democratic radios of the seventies, as an expression of a desire for information that thanks to the use of the Network has become global.

Au nombre des contenus radiophoniques les plus populaires en Afrique depuis la démonopolisation des ondes intervenue à la fin des années 1990, il y a les émissions interactives. Ce format radiophonique dont la réalisation ne nécessite pas de grands moyens s’est développé d’autant plus rapidement qu’il va de pair avec une croissance exponentielle continue de la téléphonie mobile sur le continent africain. En s’intéressant plus spécifiquement à WhatsApp, l’application mobile la plus utilisée sur le continent africain, le présent article s’intéresse aux mutations induites par cette application de messagerie dans les interactions radiophoniques en Afrique. Among the most popular radio content in Africa since the demonopolization of the radio waves in the late 1990s, there are interactive broadcasts. This radio format, the production of which does not require major resources, has developed all the more rapidly as it goes hand in hand with the continuous exponential growth of mobile telephony on the African continent. By focusing more specifically on WhatsApp, the most widely used mobile application on the African continent, this article focuses on the changes induced by this messaging application in radio interactions in Africa. Entre los contenidos de radio más populares en África desde la desmonopolización de las ondas de radio a fines de la década de 1990, se encuentran los programas interactivos.

Youth research recognises that the struggles typical of the transition to adulthood can no longer be assumed to occur ‘at home’. However, few investigations have focused on how the imagination of mobility shapes that which is not home yet but which may later become so. To address this lacuna, this article engages with how the imagination of the future of young people is entrenched with ‘motility’, namely, the possibility for a type of movement that arises out of a specific relationship with one’s current context. Focusing on Sardinian youth, the article problematises the strong mobility orientation which can occur through the unfolding of an imagined continuous ‘lived’ relationship with Sardinia. The author calls this ‘rooted mobility’. The article discusses the limits that accompany such mobility, and the potential for social action that emerges, framing narratives of the future within the conditions of peripherality in which young Sardinians live. The article draws on 341 essays on the topic of the future collected from students in their penultimate year of school. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Taking the recent debate on austerity as a starting point, this paper discusses contradictions in current processes of neoliberalisation using the marketisation of elderly care in Switzerland as an example. Just as in other countries, an austerity rationality in public spending and the neoliberal restructuring of public health services paved the way for the emergence of private suppliers of 24 hours home care. These new agencies hire migrant women from Eastern European countries and sell packaged care services to the elderly. In so doing, they play a key role in reconfiguring care according to a market logic. They shape the working conditions of live-in migrant care workers and the definition of care itself as a marketable good. In our paper, we analyse the strategies of these new corporate intermediaries based on a market analysis and on interviews with their representatives. We argue that the marketisation of elderly care in Switzerland is illustrative of today's neoliberalism in that it combines progressive and regressive aspects and owes its emergence to its ambiguous entanglement with many other discourses. The paper illustrates how the transformation of the home into a new space of commercialised care relies on the production and economic valorisation of social and mobility differentials.

In the global south where care services are sparse and familial care remains practically and socially important, end of life care often occurs within families. Furthermore, in health care related policy development, care is often assumed to be ensured by ‘traditional’ norms of extended family relationships. In this context, the demands of providing care may require care providers to relocate, as well as reorganize their everyday responsibilities. This article contributes to geographies of care by offering an examination of the mobility constraints experienced by married and externally-resident daughters seeking to provide end of life care to a parent in northern Ghana. Drawing on ethnographic research, I examine how particular familial relationships are embedded with socially constructed labour obligations, leading to conflicting responsibilities at a parent’s end of life. I then consider how a woman as a daughter works to overcome these constraints to provide end of life care. I conclude that understanding the mobility of care providers can contribute to avoiding potentially damaging assumptions of ‘traditional’ norms of care and is an important consideration towards understanding the geographies of care in the rural global south.

The uniqueness of this article is that it deals withlong-distance bike commuting in pro-cycling Copenhagen and its environs. Informed by practice theory and sensuous studies of urban and sport practices, I discuss the ‘things and environments’, ‘meanings’ and ‘competences and biological bodies’ that typify long-distance commuter cycling. This article develops cycling literature and the ‘mobilities paradigm’ in the following ways: by outlining a practice approach to cycling; challenging the idea that commuter cycling is only for short distances; undermining the distinction between utility and sport cycling; and lastly by connecting the ‘mobilities paradigm’ with literature on active travel and sport studies.

La croissance urbaine rapide de la ville de Batna depuis la période post- indépendance a entraîné l’accroissement des distances entre le centre-ville, concentrant les activités et les emplois, et les périphéries dans lesquelles ont proliféré et se sont développés les quartiers informels. L’offre de transport public n’a cependant pas évolué à la mesure des besoins en mobilité pour les populations de ces quartiers souvent les plus denses de la ville. Cet article analyse les disparités d’accès aux transports par bus – moyen de transport le plus accessible à l’ensemble de la population dans la ville de Batna– et tend à interroger leur impact sur le quotidien des habitants des quartiers informels. En l’absence des données officielles sur l’offre de transport à Batna, nous avons opté pour une enquête détaillée du réseau des transports collectifs et d’une enquête auprès des habitants des quartiers informels. Les résultats de cette recherche ont permis de mettre en exergue les inégalités aigues d’accès aux transports collectifs par bus à Batna, au détriment des occupants des quartiers informels impactant lourdement leur vécu au quotidien, qu’il s’agisse d’accès au travail ou à l’école ou encore à la vie sociale ou aux achats. Les contraintes épuisantes et les malaises auxquelles font face ces habitants accentuent leur ségrégation, inhérentes aux disparités d’accès au transport. The rapid urban growth of the city of Batna since the post-independence period has led to an increase in the distances between the city center, where activities and jobs are concentrated, and the outskirts, where informal settlements have proliferated and developed. However, the public transport offer has not evolved in line with the mobility needs of the populations of these neighborhoods, which are often the densest in the city. This article analyzes the disparities in access to bus transport - the most accessible means of transport for the entire population in the city of Batna - and tends to question their impact on the daily lives of the inhabitants of informal settlements. In the absence of official data on the supply of transport in Batna, we opted for a detailed survey of the public transport network and a survey of the inhabitants of informal settlements. The results of this research highlighted the acute inequalities in access to public transport by bus in Batna, to the detriment of the occupants of the informal settlements, which has a heavy impact on their daily lives, whether in terms of access to work or school, or to social life or to shopping. The exhausting constraints and discomforts faced by these inhabitants accentuate their segregation, inherent to the disparities in access to transport. El rápido crecimiento urbano en la ciudad de Batna desde el periodo post independentista ha propiciado un incremento de las distancias entre el centro de la ciudad, que concentra las actividades y empleos, con la periferia, en la cual han proliferado el desarrollado de asentamientos informales. Sin embargo, la oferta de transporte público no ha evolucionado a la par de las necesidades de movilidad de los residentes de tales asentamientos, frecuentemente, los espacios más densos de la ciudad. Este artículo analiza las disparidades en el acceso al transporte de autobús, el medio de locomoción más accesible por la población de la ciudad de Batna, y se orienta a interrogarse sobre su impacto en la vida cotidiana de los habitantes de los asentamientos informales. En ausencia de datos oficiales sobre la oferta de transporte, realizamos una detallada encuesta de la red de transporte público, además de entrevistas a los habitantes de tales asentamientos. Los resultados expresan fuertes desigualdades en el acceso al transporte público del autobús, siendo particularmente afectados los habitantes de los asentamientos informales y por tanto incrementando la marginación de estos.

Cet article interroge le domaine de la mobilité comme mode de vie à partir du phénomène des nomades numériques, personnes qui, grâce à l’usage des technologies sans fil, matérialisent leur possibilité de découvrir le monde tout en poursuivant leur activité professionnelle sans être confinées dans des localités spécifiques. Analysant la dynamique entre ethos de la liberté, responsabilisation et marchandisation à partir de la théorie de l’individualisme de Anthony Giddens, le texte examine le rôle joué par la mobilité transnationale dans un « projet de soi » qui remet en cause un mode de vie sédentaire et met l’accent sur la création d’une histoire individuelle, assumant les risques que cela entraîne. Les matériaux empiriques sont issus d’une combinaison de méthodes d’enquête, associant l’ethnographie virtuelle, le travail de terrain conventionnel et l’analyse de contenu en ligne (entretiens, articles, blogues personnels)., This article questions the field of mobility as a way of life from the phenomenon of digital nomads, people who, thanks to the use of wireless technologies, materialize their possibility to discover the world while pursuing their professional activity without being confined to specific localities. Analyzing the dynamics between the ethos of freedom, accountability and commodification through Anthony Giddens’ theory of individualism, the text examines the role played by transnational mobility in a “project of the self” that questions a sedentary lifestyle and emphasizes the creation of an individual history, assuming the risks that this entails. The empirical materials are based on a combination of investigation methods, combining virtual ethnography, conventional fieldwork and analysis of online content (interviews, articles, personal blogs)., Este artículo interroga al campo de la movilidad como forma de vida a partir del fenómeno de los nómadas digitales, personas que, gracias al uso de las tecnologías inalámbricas, materializan la posibilidad de descubrir el mundo al mismo tiempo que continúan realizando sus actividades profesionales sin estar confinados en localidades específicas. Analizando la dinámica entre ethos de la libertad, responsabilidad y mercantilización a partir de la teoría del individualismo de Anthony Giddens, la autora examina el rol que juega la movilidad transaccional al interior del «proyecto de sí-mismo» que cuestiona la vida sedentaria y enfatiza la creación de una historia individual, asumiendo los riesgos que esto conlleva. Los materiales empíricos se basan en una combinación de métodos de encuesta que asocia la etnografía virtual, el trabajo de campo convencional y el análisis de contenido en linea (entrevistas, artículos, blogs personales).
