In México, Covid-19 pandemic made it necessary to adapt mobility activities to virtual modality in order to provide postgraduate students with an opportunity to work in settings external to their institutions of affiliation, to mobilize their competences and enrich their training by impacting in their professional practice. This study has as purpose to analyze the contribution of virtual mobility in training of education professionals in times of pandemic. A study was carried out from the qualitative paradigm and a phenomenological design was used. Data were analyzed using the content analysis technique and based on four axes of analysis: contribution to training, educational actors, digital media, and areas of opportunity. Results highlight that mobility in virtual mode helped to strengthening of academic, professional, and personal training from knowledge in disciplinary area, the development of soft and reseach skills, as well as the recognition of other cultures, development of potentialities to work based on them starting to the guidance of the tutor and co-tutor.

El esfuerzo reflexivo que se propone en el presente manuscrito indaga, de qué forma, la marcha del Metro de Quito modificó la movilidad de los habitantes de la capital de la República de Ecuador y construyó otro espacio público en el que se entretejen interrelaciones sociales en medio de la diversidad. Se formuló como objetivo de investigación identificar las interacciones que se desarrollan en el Metro de Quito convertido en espacio público; y, respondió la pregunta de investigación: ¿de qué forma el Metro de Quito se ha convertido en un espacio público? Se utilizó metodología cualitativa a través de técnicas como el análisis documental y la observación; se empleó instrumentos flexibles como la matriz de revisión y el diario de campo cuyas notas ayudaron en la descripción de la información obtenida. Entre los hallazgos, se puede destacar que no solo se ha solucionado el tema de movilidad, en una primera instancia, sino que ha cobrado vida un nuevo sitio dedicado al encuentro y a la interacción social.

En este trabajo se explora la movilidad de las españolas para el trabajo sexual a Suiza, especialmente a la ciudad de Ginebra. Se analizan los motivos que les llevan a trasladarse a otro país, el desarrollo del trabajo sexual y la posible existencia de procesos de explotación o coacción. Se ha realizado un trabajo etnográfico en la ciudad de Ginebra, recogiendo observaciones y entrevistas a trabajadoras sexuales españolas, a dueños y encargados de negocios del sexo y a miembros de una ONG. Los resultados obtenidos se relacionan con las condiciones de seguridad y beneficios que las trabajadoras sexuales pueden obtener en esta movilidad, así como las políticas y actuaciones en el trabajo sexual que se desarrollan en ambos países.

Este artículo profundiza sobre el proyecto Hexacube, un prototipo habitacional diseñado por Georges Candilis en 1971, junto con la colaboración de Anja Blomstedt. Desde un contexto general, se analizará el desarrollo tecnológico surgido en Francia y el crecimiento del hábitat turístico y de ocio, así como la investigación sobre la vivienda prefabricada de plástico que toda una generación de arquitectos abordó en el país en la segunda mitad del siglo XX. Desde un contexto específico, el artículo se centra en el análisis de Hexacube, un proyecto que puede ser entendido como: un sistema arquitectónico híbrido -permanente y temporal-; como un sistema prefabricado y modular -según una “estrategia de conchas”-; como una arquitectura itinerante -desmontable y móvil-; como un catálogo de espacios domésticos -indeterminados y personalizables-; y como una “casa evolutiva” -de múltiples configuraciones y extensible horizontalmente-. Hexacube es un proyecto emblemático también en la trayectoria de Georges Candilis, miembro central del Team 10, así como el conjunto de 27 viviendas turísticas que llegaron a construirse en Port-Leucate. Hexacube es un proyecto destacado del hábitat prefabricado de plástico y de los espacios domésticos experimentales.

El artículo aborda el impacto de la pandemia de COVID-19 en los proyectos migratorios de emigrados españoles recientes en Europa, centrándose en Francia y el Reino Unido. De manera precisa, nos preguntamos cómo se vivieron los primeros meses de restricciones a la movilidad y los controles fronterizos y si las experiencias vividas han podido dejar huella en los proyectos migratorios. A través de entrevistas cualitativas, se exploraron las experiencias y percepciones de los migrantes, revelando estrategias de adaptación y cambios en los proyectos migratorios. A corto plazo, la pandemia intensificó las desigualdades socioeconómicas y laborales entre los migrantes, mientras que, a medio y largo plazo, se observó un replanteamiento hacia una mayor estabilidad en los destinos, tanto a nivel laboral como legislativo. La pandemia destacó la importancia de la estabilidad y la seguridad en los destinos, lo que llevó a algunos migrantes a buscar la doble nacionalidad como garantía de transnacionalidad. En resumen, la pandemia ha influido en la percepción de la movilidad y la inmovilidad, así como en la búsqueda de estabilidad y seguridad en los proyectos migratorios de los españoles en Europa.

we study the epigraphic documentation generated by those Hispanics who moved to Italy between the 1st century BC and the 5th century AD. To compile this information we have reviewed the CIL indexes relating to Italy and Rome, as well as the data collected in specialised publications and databases, selecting all those inscriptions that have a Hispanic origin. This documentation forms the basis of the corresponding historical study, which analyses the origin and destination centres of these Hispanics, as well as the reasons for their movements. We also study their professions and the activity they carried out in their new places of residence. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Temporal contexts are essential for the derivation of causally relevant environmental exposure in environmental and public health studies. We argue that the proper temporal contexts need further emphasis in the mobility-oriented research paradigm and articulate this issue using a study in Hong Kong. We use people's exposure to outdoor artificial light at night (ALAN) and green space as two essential examples. We recruited 208 participants from two representative communities in Hong Kong and derived their mobility-oriented environmental exposures from high-resolution remote sensing data and Google Street View imagery. We employed one-standard-deviational ellipses to quantitatively represent participants' activity spaces, and we further used participants' seven-day Global Positioning System trajectories to derive their spatiotemporally weighted exposures to green space and outdoor ALAN in different temporal contexts. Multiple t tests were used to examine the disparities in activity spaces and measured exposures in different temporal contexts, and these exposure measurements were then used to predict people's health outcomes. We found that people's activity spaces are significantly different in size between day and night, for both weekdays and weekends, and in both geographic contexts. We further observed that improper temporal contexts could lead to significantly different environmental exposure levels and causally irrelevant modeling results. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The accelerated evolution of technology in the last decade has enabled breakthroughs in fields of science such as medicine, robotics, bionics and rehabilitation by integrating knowledge and techniques from these areas. Rehabilitation exoskeletons are examples of multidisciplinary integration in the development of physiotherapeutic intervention tools that have shown significant results in patients with neurological diseases. This systematic literature review presents the advances, developments and characteristics of these devices and their current situation, specifically those that have the greatest impact on their co-citation and co-occurrence so that the works integrated into the research are verifiable and reliable. This is done through the implementation of a methodology for the elaboration of the state of the art on the subject of rehabilitation exoskeletons, based on the implementation of scientific databases, systematised digital bibliometric tools and their systemic integration. The scientific literature on rehabilitation exoskeletons was compiled from papers published between January 2014 and 30 November 2023, which were retrieved from the Web of Science. The first stage was to define the inclusion and exclusion criteria in order to limit the search within the scientific database, and the second stage was to process the information and works obtained in order to process them using the CiteSpace software, as a result of this stage, the co-occurrence analysis was obtained, a graphical network was generated and a co-citation analysis, subsequently with the data obtained from the previous stages, the PRISMA method was implemented. As a third step, the results obtained from the 1511 publications and 108,512 reference citations dealing with rehabilitation exoskeletons are presented. A discussion of the main characteristics, advances, limitations, challenges and trends of these devices is presented. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Historically, there has been an inequality in mobility conditions between men and women, which derives mainly from their gender roles in society. Generally, women are responsible for caregiving activities, such as caring for children. In this context, studying the mobility of care in different areas is vital. To reflect on this issue, the environment around the 27 Febrero Municipal Child Development Center in the city of Cuenca-Ecuador was used as a case study. Four instruments were applied: Case-type surveys to parents, open-source tools for the micro-scale evaluation of eMAPS environments, non-participant direct observation, and semi-structured interviews. It was found that, although the quality of the urban environment influences the mobility conditions for caregiving when traveling to and from the educational center, other factors are more relevant, such as the means of transportation used and personal safety.

Centrada en los vagabundeos de una argentina por Heidelberg luego de un impulsivo viaje, La habitación alemana (2017), de la escritora argentina Carla Maliandi, aborda la movilidad sin rumbo tanto como viaje de desterritorialización de lo conocido, como desplazamiento indagatorio y tentativo hacia las vivencias de una infancia marcada por el exilio. Por un lado, se estudia la errancia como una movilidad que se sitúa entre los conceptos de espacio liso y espacio estriado, propuestos por Deleuze y Guattari; y, por otro, el modo en que este tipo de movilidad puede ser entendida como una fuerza que conecta con el carácter vibrante del entorno, para crear, así, un paisaje afectivo caracterizado por la nostalgia. En sintonía con la falta de dirección de los recorridos, la nostalgia no solo supone una vuelta al pasado, sino sobre todo un impulso hacia un futuro de lo posible que cuestiona las categorías espaciotemporales.

Este artículo analiza la reemigración de mujeres latinoamericanas residentes en España para trabajar en un sector agrícola de la Provenza (Francia) en el contexto posterior a la crisis económica de 2008 y a la ocasionada por la pandemia del covid-19. Se analizan las trayectorias laborales y de movilidad de estas trabajadoras desde una perspectiva feminista, en la que se contempla la articulación entre los cuidados y el trabajo remunerado. Este análisis nos ha permitido aproximarnos tanto a las subjetividades y a las estrategias de las trabajadoras como a las transformaciones que, a raíz de ambas crisis, están teniendo lugar en este enclave de agricultura intensiva provenzal. Los resultados muestran que, para estas mujeres, dicha movilidad posee efectos ambivalentes, pues les ha permitido mejorar sus condiciones de vida y acceder a salarios más elevados, pero también las ha relegado a unos empleos con los que no se identifican y que se caracterizan por una gran dureza física y malas condiciones laborales. Asimismo, hemos visto que, junto a factores estructurales relacionados con la situación socioeconómica y de los mercados laborales, el trabajo reproductivo, concretamente el cuidado de hijos e hijas pequeños, modela las trayectorias profesionales y de movilidad de estas trabajadoras. Este artículo es fruto de una investigación cualitativa, en la que se han realizado observaciones y entrevistas en profundidad.

El siguiente artículo tiene por objetivo analizar el impacto que los medios de comunicación españoles tienen sobre la juventud marroquí como estímulo para iniciar un proyecto migratorio. El diseño del artículo es mixto, se emplearon técnicas cualitativas como entrevistas y grupos de discusión y, además, cuestionarios como recurso cuantitativo. Los datos se extrajeron en Tetuán (Marruecos) entre junio y septiembre de 2023. Los resultados muestran, por un lado, componentes de atracción para iniciar un proyecto migratorio y, por otro lado, aspectos repulsivos que giran en torno a miedos impulsados por rechazo, racismo e, incluso, información errónea o manipulada relacionada con incitación a la homosexualidad y tensiones multiculturales. La investigación concluye que es necesario observar y tener en cuenta por parte de las administraciones públicas y organizaciones sociales, el papel que los medios de comunicación y redes sociales digitales albergan en cuanto a su capacidad de incidencia en la juventud y los efectos que noticias falsas pueden generar en la población en cuanto a su capacidad para generar conflictos.

La movilidad juega un papel esencial en la vida cotidiana de la población, especialmente en el caso de los estudiantes que diariamente se ven obligados a desplazarse hasta sus centros de estudio. Se plantea el presente trabajo con el fin de conocer las conductas de movilidad de los estudiantes del Grado en Geografía e Historia y sus dobles grados de la Universidad Pablo de Olavide, así como el impacto que han tenido las medidas de bonificación de los medios de transporte. La localización de este campus universitario dentro de la aglomeración urbana de Sevilla, aunque fuera de los núcleos de población favorece que sea interesante esta primera aproximación a su estudio. Los resultados obtenidos se han basado en la encuesta realizada a este conjunto de estudiantes, lo que ha permitido conocer que un 79 % se desplaza hasta la universidad en transporte público, mientras que los principales usuarios del vehículo privado son los residentes en municipios del área metropolitana con malas conexiones de transporte público. Por ello, entre otras medidas, se propone mejorar las conexiones de transporte público y crear rutas de autobús en las zonas que no tienen servicio de metro dentro de la ciudad de Sevilla.

Situadas en la pandemia del COVID-19, La vida inmueble (2022) de Federico Galende y Preguntas frecuentes (2020) de Nona Fernández abordan la cotidianidad del encierro como una tensión entre la inmovilidad y la movilidad. Estas obras proponen en la espera una apertura hacia el cambio en relación con un evento que cuestiona las políticas de la pandemia y el sentido de comunidad. En su dimensión afectiva, la crisis sanitaria proyecta nuevas alianzas de vida en común que transforman el paisaje cotidiano en una comunidad imaginaria y virtual. Por un lado, en La vida inmueble se explorará la inmovilidad como una espera que produce una práctica afectiva del espacio doméstico, en diálogo con el espacio público. Por otro, en Fernández, se analizará el vínculo entre la espera y el potencial crítico de lo cotidiano en relación con la creación de un paisaje que conecta la pandemia con el estallido social de 2019.

Tras el 11 de Septiembre los analistas pusieron el acento en los cambios sustanciales que atravesaron las democracias occidentales, ya sea en el campo de las relaciones internacionales como la forma de comprender al “otro”, al extranjero. Diversos estudios han analizado de forma convincente cómo la teoría precautoria minó por dentro las instituciones democráticas al punto de legalizar o normalizar la tortura. Este miedo al otro ejemplificó un nuevo tiempo que marca la muerte de la hospitalidad en las democracias occidentales. El COVID-19, lejos de resolver esta situación, ha reafirmado una lógica de exclusión acrecentando la instrumentalización del miedo por parte de la disciplina biopolítica. En este sentido, el presente ensayo se orienta a debatir las semejanzas entre el 9/11 y la pandemia de COVID-19 que ha azotado al mundo desde 2019, como así también sus consecuencias actuales.

La movilidad humana es un tema que abarca desde la búsqueda por la realización personal hasta la existencia en circunstancias trágicas y degradantes. En ese escenario de incertidumbre aparece la teoría social como una cámara que permite atrapar un momento para elevar sobre él lecturas e interpretaciones variadas y divergentes entre sí. Este artículo explora la movilidad humana en la teoría social posmoderna a través de una metodología documental y desde una perspectiva filosófica-sociológica. Se inicia con una aproximación al nomadismo, la vida errante y la vida desértica en las interpretaciones de Michel Maffesoli y Leticia Katzer, donde se esboza la movilidad humana a tenor de la vitalidad y la individualidad. Después, se aborda la temática a partir de la noción de la diáspora en James Clifford. Allí se expande la circunstancia en función a la comunidad y al sentido de pertenencia. A continuación, se explora la movilidad humana en Zygmunt Bauman, quien la vincula a la pertinencia constituyente del trabajo y la superfluidad. Por último, se plantea la actualización analítica de la movilidad humana en Marc Augé. Se concluye que la temática ha de tomar en cuenta la diversidad teórica posmoderna. La pluralidad, así como la falta de coherencia (concreción), no implica una contradicción conceptual; la realidad demanda su constante actualización.

Walking and cycling are considered sustainable transport modes, promoted as a means to reduce car traffic. In the scientific literature, they have mostly been investigated separately, but should be considered jointly to enable a modal shift. Both daytime and dark conditions need to be studied, to improve understanding of how environmental features are affected by temporal variation. A conceptual model is introduced to advance understanding of the significance of different environmental factors for walking/cycling, and serves as the basis for the design of an empirical study. A between-subject design was used, comparing two pedestrian/cycle paths located in two mid-sized Swedish cities during daytime and after dark. Pedestrians (n = 90) and cyclists (n = 74) responded to questionnaires assessing environmental parameters hypothesized to be of importance for walking and cycling. Three-factor ANOVAs indicated differences between the two locations (perceived stimuli), between pedestrians and cyclists (environmental appraisal, affective response, behavioural intention) and between daytime and dark conditions (visual accessibility, restorative potential). The conceptual model helps identify the importance of various environmental features. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The objective of this research is the analysis of the general position of the Spanish population under 45 years old (young adults) regarding the acceptance of the electric vehicle. The methodology is quantitative (from survey data) and qualitative (semi-structured interviews with professionals in the sector Although most of the participants state that they are aware of the environment, only 29.4% would be interested in purchasing an electric vehicle, its high price being the biggest barrier. It is concluded that electric vehicles will be the predominant mobility option in the future, although currently they are not, mainly among the younger population. In any case, interest in electric vehicles is different depending on gender, level of education and frequency of vehicle change. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article examines the integration of exoskeletons in the rehabilitation of patients with motor disabilities, highlighting their potential to improve mobility, muscle strength and quality of life. Through a qualitative literature review methodology, recent studies, success stories and comparisons between different populations were analyzed to evaluate the efficacy of exoskeletons. The results indicate significant improvements in patient mobility and independence, although challenges in implementation were identified, such as the need for specialized training for healthcare professionals, customization of the device to the patient, and economic barriers. The discussion highlights the importance of integrating exoskeletons with conventional therapies and emerging technologies, such as virtual reality, to overcome these challenges and improve rehabilitation outcomes. The conclusions emphasize the efficacy of exoskeletons in motor disability rehabilitation and recommend the development of training programs, more adaptable exoskeletons, and innovative funding models to expand their accessibility. This study highlights the need for future research to optimize the use of exoskeletons in clinical practice and improve the quality of life of patients with motor disabilities.

Mobility plays an essential role in the daily life of the population, especially in the case of students who are forced to travel to their study centers each day. The main objective of this study is to comprehend the mobility behaviors of the students of the Degree in Geography and History and the double degrees of the Pablo de Olavide University, as well as the impact that the bonus measures for transport have had. The location of this university campus within the urban agglomeration of Seville but on the outskirts of the population centers makes this approach to its study interesting. The results obtained have been derived from the survey carried out on this group of students, revealing that 79 % travel to the university by public transport, while the main users of private vehicles are residents of the municipalities located in the metropolitan area with poor public transport connections. For this reason, the measures proposed include the improvement of public transport connections and the creation of bus routes in areas that do not have a metro service within the city of Seville.

Often, music—particularly classical music—has been viewed in some quarters as a product of particular national cultures, with little regard paid to the ways in which mobile phenomena can contribute to its production, whether in the form of mobile people, objects, or concepts. This paper turns to notions of mobility as a means of exploring how musical cultures can be animated. It explores, too, the possibilities of particular forms of "mapping" as a way to retain, but also rethink, the spatial specificity so emphatically signalled in some musical tradition-claiming, while simultaneously avoiding the excessive valorisation of mobility that can characterise many musical careers as endlessly nomadic or socially detached. We begin by discussing the question of music and nationalism in more detail, particularly as it has been conceived of within musicology, ethnomusicology, and nationalism studies. In so doing, we aim to establish a sense of the national framing and fixing through which (classical) music has hitherto been understood in some contexts. This leads naturally onto an attendant discussion of the mobility of music, in which we will outline some of the nascent material on this topic. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The most diverse fields of knowledge have focused on understanding the dimension of space and time in human sociability for centuries. In the field of Geography is also a very traditional topic in terms of academic research. But the second half of the 20th century brought an expansion in reflections on temporal research, due to Hagerstrand's temporal geography research, as well later contributions in broader and more critical perspectives. But there are still few studies in Brazil with this theme. This paper aims to contribute to the understanding of the foundations of temporal geography for a critical analysis of urban crossings and biography of the daily (i)mobilities of the peripheral populations from the metropolis of São Paulo. The methodology used in this article refers to quantitative and qualitative approaches and usages of new technologies for the active GPS positioning of smartphones. It was found that the urban crossings of peripheral populations are marked by everyday constraints that limit the time-space prism and make it impossible to access opportunities on the edges of the metropolis of São Paulo.

This article analyzes the impact that the COVID-19 pandemic and the restrictions applied to contain it have had on urban public transport services in the five Spanish cities with a population in the interval of 170,000 inhabitants. To do this, the passenger data of the different urban transport systems of these cities have been studied, their evolution throughout the pandemic and in the so-called new normality has been analyzed, and they have been compared with those of previous years. The result shows a fairly similar percentage decrease in most cases, which also corresponds to the trend registered in the set of urban services in Spain. There is no relationship between the existing passenger traffic in each service before the pandemic and the decrease experienced during it. However, those cities that previously registered a higher volume of users show a greater percentage recovery in 2021 than those whose volume of travelers was lower. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objective of the Study: Present and investigate the impacts of an innovative strategy called superilla, implemented in Barcelona city (Spain). Methodology: The research is divided into two stages: i) Theoretical exploration of the superilla concept and its sustainable principles (pedestrian priority, reduction in vehicle traffic, urban mobility, creation of open spaces and green areas, urban furniture, reduction of air pollution, among others) and ii) Impacts analysis of the superilla implemented in Barcelona, through case studies: PobleNou and Sant Antoní. Originality/Relevance: Although the superilles strategy in Barcelona represents a milestone for sustainability, there is a scarcity of discussions on the subject in the Brazilian context. Main Results: The study outlined the implementation phases of the superilles and highlighted six key points of the intervention, such as: i) modal hierarchy; ii) regional issue, iii) coordination between projects; iv) popular participation, v) exportable model and vi) renaturalization of the city. Contributions: This research focuses on investigating the processes occurring in the urban intervention of superilles, making their understanding more in-depth and disseminating this process in Brazil, in order to contribute to the new urban strategies dissemination.

This article characterizes the mobility patterns of women and men residing in the first ring of rural development of Cuenca, Ecuador. It focuses on those who engage in economic, educational, and care tasks. Using data from a representative survey applied in the study area, the destinations, modes of transportation, travel times, and other variables associated with their daily trips are described. The results show that the mobility of all groups is characterized by trips to the urban area. However, women who perform paid work and care tasks use public transport more and invest more time in their travels. The article concludes by emphasizing the importance of gender roles, occupational ties, and public transportation in rural mobility. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The access of rural societies to welfare opportunities and resources is at the core of policy and research agendas. The persistent ruralurban gap increases the risks of exclusion and is a challenge that rural dwellers tackle by bolstering their mobility to access labour markets, resources and services. The car has become a vector in the connections and transformations that sustain rural life; however, this mobility is also a source of new fractures in social and territorial cohesion. This paper explores how the rural mobility system has been shaped and analyses its impact on these societies. The results suggest integrating the issue of mobility into rural policies from a more complex sociological perspective, addressing demographic challenges, regional development and territorial cohesion.

Between the decades of 1960 and 1990, the family dairy farming activity, a fundamental link in the dairy circuit located in the dairy basin in Buenos Aires province, experienced significant transformations. These were driven by the demands of pasteurization, the mechanization of tasks, the railways decline, the automobile transportation growth, the lower labour demand, changes in dairy demand and the expansion of large diversified plants. Within a context of process of productive change, which role did mobility, in terms of infrastructure and practices, play? How did mobility restrict family dairy production? How did (in)accessibility influence? In order to answer these questions that have not deserved enough historiographical attention, this research describes the daily life of dairy farming families in the General Paz district, with the focus placed on mobility practices and the accessibility problems that made their social reproduction difficult in the mentioned period. To do this, a socio-territorial approach will be used and multiple sources will be compiled and analyzed, such as the press, legislation, statistics, maps and interviews. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
