Mobility is a basic principle of modernity besides others like
individuality, rationality, equality and globality. Taking its cue
from this concept, this book presents a movement that begins with
the macro-social transformations linked to mobility and ends with
empirical discussions on the new forms of mobility and their
implications for everyday life. The book opens with a study of the
social changes unique to the second age of modernity, with
contributions from Ulrich Beck, John Urry, Wolfgang Bonss and Sven
Kesselring. It continues with a discussion of the implications of
these changes for sociological research. Authors such as Vincent
Kaufmann, Weert Canzler, Norbert Schneider, Beate Collet, Ruth
Limmer and Gerlinde Vogl focus on a series of field examinations,
both qualitative and quantitative, of emerging mobilities. The book
is a foray into the exciting new field of interdisciplinary
mobility research informed by theoretical reflection and empirical
investigation.
