In the twenty-first century, more than ever, everything and
everybody seems to be on the move. Global flows of people, goods,
food, money, information, services and media images are forming an
intensely mobile background to everyday life. Social scientists,
too, are on the move, seeking new analytical purchase on these
important aspects of the social world by trying to move with, and
to be moved by, the fleeting, distributed, multiple, non-causal,
sensory, emotional and kinaesthetic. Mobile Methods addresses the
challenges and opportunities of researching mobile phenomena.
Drawing on extensive interdisciplinary discussion, the book brings
together a collection of cutting-edge methodological innovations
and original research reports to examine some important
implications of the mobilities turn for the processes of
'research', and the realm of the empirical. Through analysis that
addresses questions such as 'how are social relationships and
social institutions made in and through mobility?', and 'how do
people experience mobility in twenty-first century world cities?',
the authors mobilize sociological analysis, bringing new insights
and opening up new opportunities for engagement with contemporary
challenges. This book is a key text for undergraduate and
postgraduate students of disciplines including Human Geography,
Social Policy, Sociology and Research Methods.
