Geographies, Mobilities, and Rhythms Over the Life-Course - Adventures in the Interval

By thinking in terms of the geographies of mobilities, we are better able to understand the central importance of movements, rhythms and shifting emplacements over the life-course. This innovative book represents research from a multidisciplinary field that includes, among other things, studies on smart cities, infrastructures and networks; mobile technologies for automated highways or locative media; mobility justice and rights to stay or enter or reside. These activities, cadences and changing attachments to place have profound effects upon how we conduct or govern ourselves and each other via many social institutions, and upon how we constitute the spaces in and through which our lives are experienced.
