The new mobilities paradigm suggests a set of questions, theories, and methodologies rather than a totalising or reductive description of the contemporary world.
What is new mobility paradigm?
The new mobilities paradigm, also referred to as the mobilities turn, is an integrated approach to study the movement of people, things and ideas across all scales, i.e., social space and social time, as well as its implications on society (Cresswell, 2006; Bissell & Fuller, 2011; Conradson, 2011).
What is the mobilities turn?
A shift in thinking within the social sciences that prioritizes the concept of *mobility. Such thinking, rather than understanding the world as largely fixed with some movement between locations, views the world as fluid and always in motion.
