„[A]ll social relationships should be seen as involving diverse 'connections' that are more or less 'at distance', more or less fast, more or less intense and more or less involving physical movement. Social relations are never only fixed or located in place but are to very varying degrees constituted through 'circulating entities'.“ (Urry 2007: 46)

  • Social formations emerge through and are

stabilised by mobilities

  • Focus on interrelations of different forms
  • f spatial and virtual mobilities, movement

  • Mobilities as a social practice, embedded

in a multiplicity of social, material and spatial contexts

  • Ability to move requires specific resources

(competences, money, information … cf. Kaufmann et al. 2004)

  • Mobility actors negotiate their movements

within their socia cial n l networ etwork

  • Negotiations take place within spatia

Empirical Analysis Conclusion

slide-6
SLIDE 6

24.03.2015

Empirical analyses of mobility practices should account for

  • 1. observable patterns of the practices of

interest, e.g. a set of interrelated geographical movements like residential mobility and commuting;

  • 2. the relational embedding of movement into

social networks, e.g. households. This entails also to focus on relational effects

  • f mobility, e.g. that movement of one member
  • f the household necessitates immobility of

another;

  • 3. the structuring of movement patterns by

geographical spatial situation, e.g. transportation and traffic infrastructures, employment geographies, etc.

  • Research interest: job related mobilities: daily commuting

time and (cross-cantonal) residential mobility

  • Variables of social context:
  • Age: male mean age: 50.1 years, female mean age: 47.7 years
  • Children in the household (2/3 with children)
  • Education
  • Household income
  • Distribution of work between spouses
  • Variables of spatial context:

Regression model reduces social and spatial context to properties of the individual  movement understood as outcome of rational choice made by individual subjects against the background of individual preferences and available resources MCA first constructs the geometric pattern of practices and then searches for interpretation of the dimensions  international comparison highlights structuring impact of social and spatial settings
