This book explores how emerging mobility practices have transformed
spaces in order to fit the needs of highly mobile people, as well
as the changing relationship between people and territory. It
establishes an interdisciplinary and a multiscalar approach to
mobility analysis and mobility design through the application of a
mobile method of research. Drawing on mobile people in Italy, the
book highlights how influential movers appropriate and configure
space for their own needs, centring their activities on continuous
but distant places and configuring territories with uncertain and
evolving limits. This change of perspective allows us to redefine
the concept of mobility space, including all the spaces that
support the development of emerging mobility practices. It also
encourages new perspectives on the way in which the relationship
between the individual and territory is evolving into a less
sedentary way of inhabiting space. This book will be of interest to
architects, urban scientists and sociologists, as well as
postgraduate students who are interested in understanding how
mobilities are transforming contemporary cities and territories.
