Brazilian Mobilities presents an overview of the diversity of
mobility studies developed in Brazil. It builds a picture of a
strong Latin-American perspective emerging in the field of
mobilities research, which provides unique insight into the complex
dynamics of mobilities in the emerging countries from the Global
South. Addressing such different areas as tourism, urbanization,
media studies, social inequalities, marketing and mega-events,
transport and technology, among others, the contributors use the
new mobilities paradigm, or NMP (Sheller & Urry, 2006) as a
starting point to reflect about the social changes experienced in
the country and they also engage with newer literature on
mobilities, including work done by Brazilian and Latin-American
authors depending on the subject of each individual chapter.
Illustrating to scholars the uniqueness and complexity of the
Brazilian social-political and economic context, the book was
organized in order to be a representative sample of the studies
carried out in Brazil, as well as to contribute to other academic
investigations on (im)mobilities and different social realities in
emerging countries.
