Sweet surrender? Changing autonomobile structures of feeling
Imaginaries of smart, sustainable autonomous vehicles carrying people of all ages and abilities to relax en-route to myriad destinations, evoke a sweet surrender to the machine. But such technocratic visions clash with visions of non-anthropocentric autonomy. The urgency of mobility transformation in the face of ecological overshoot makes this a site of turbulence where new “structures of feeling” are emerging. But how to study changing structure…
Between existential mobility and intimacy 5.0
The COVID-19 pandemic has reconfigured every social, political, economic and cultural aspect of modern society. Millions of people have been stuck in lockdown within and across borders, national and regional terrains, in their homes and worse places. At this time of unprecedented change and ‘stuckedness’, digital communication technologies have served as a lifeline to forge and nurture communication, intimate ties and a sense of continuity and be…
Before and beyond trust
Artificial intelligence (AI) is changing healthcare and the practice of medicine as data-driven science and machine-learning technologies, in particular, are contributing to a variety of medical and clinical tasks. Such advancements have also raised many questions, especially about public trust. As a response to these concerns there has been a concentrated effort from public bodies, policy-makers and technology companies leading the way in AI to …
Handbook of Research Methods and Applications for Mobilities
Reflecting the variety and diversity of mobile methods and their applications, this comprehensive Handbook illuminates the multiple dimensions and transdisciplinary nature of mobilities research, from transport to tourism, cargo to information as well as physical, virtual and imaginative mobilities. It brings together key contributions on the state of the art of qualitative and quantitative research, multimethod combinations and co-creation metho…
Handbook on Research Methods and Applications for Mobilities
Mobilities and Utopias
What does utopian thinking have to offer students and scholars of mobility? Could ‘mobile utopias’ assist us in envisioning futures – including those of mobility – differently? Do utopias provide a unique opportunity to examine the relationship between mobile societies and lives and the environments against which these are formed? By providing different ways of reading and arguing within different theoretical frameworks and doing so in relation t…
Futures of digital death
This special issue entitled "Futures of Digital Death: Mobilities of Loss and Commemoration" explores the topic of digital death and how technologies are reconfigured by and reconfiguring social relationships with the deceased and dying loved ones as well as the larger ecosystem supporting such relationships. This Introduction article starts with an overview of the past research on digital death intended to provide a relevant context for the five…
Métodos Móveis
Este artigo discute os chamados métodos móveis em sua relação com o novo paradigma das mobilidades e com o papel central do movimento na produção de realidades e mundos sociais e sociofísicos. Em vez de oferecer um 'manual de pesquisa', o artigo apresenta algumas pesquisas emblemáticas no uso desses métodos e como elas avançam nossa compreensão sobre as mobilidades em seus aspectos sociais, políticos, epistemológicos e emocionais. Os exemplos est…
Mobile work in crisis
This paper explores some of the complexities and practices of the massively distributed and mobile work of crisis response. The analysis is motivated by our work of applying insights from social science studies to socio-technical and organisational innovation in crisis management. Insights from ethnographic observations of physically mobilising a multi-agency emergency response are contrasted with a study of troubles in mobilising data for multi-…
Mobility intersections
This special issue seeks to deepen conversations at the intersections between mobilities research and a number of adjacent fields. Contributions explore how mobilities research has emerged and travelled along with a range of approaches concerned with the lived production of socio-material orders, such as science and technology studies, non-representational and feminist theory, critical and speculative design and cosmopolitanism, to name but a few…
Nomadic Work
Mobile Communication
Stranded
An editorial introduction to a special section on the disruptions to air travel triggered by Iceland's Eyjafjallajökull's eruptions in April and May 2010. A spontaneously organized workshop and open call for papers gathered together analyses from different perspectives – systems theory, impromptu surveys, personal reflection, literary and philosophical probing. This introduction explores some of the connecting themes and highlights the strange, s…
Mobile Methods
Ethnographies of Diagnostic Work
The diverse studies of diagnostic work in this book give shape to a new view of diagnostic work. They highlight just how much more than individual cognitive capability is needed, the close relationship between analysis and intervention, the often implicit nature of diagnosis, and the fact that there are several degrees or levels of diagnostic work. Different knowledges, motivations, skills and forms of expertise are mobilised in often collaborati…

Mobile Methods and the Empirical
In this article we argue that the mobilities turn and its studies of the performativity of everyday (im)mobilities enable new forms of sociological inquiry, explanation and engagement. New kinds of researchable entities arise, opening up a new or rediscovered realm of the empirical, and new avenues for critique. The mobilities paradigm not only remedies the academic neglect of various movements, of people, objects, information and ideas. It also …
Vision in Motion
Mobility and materiality are pervasive and revealing features of professional vision. In this paper I examine how landscape architects assess visual and landscape effects of proposed urban or rural developments. A focus on mobility and materiality reveals a struggle for objectivity and transparency, and the lived reality of Latour's observation that "we have never been modern". But it also highlights the emergence of new forms of perception and e…
Social Life under the Microscope
Video is an important new instrument for sociological research, sometimes welcomed as the 'microscope' of social science. It provides access to important and otherwise difficult to examine aspects of human interaction. Moreover, because video captures practice in its lived production as 'another next first time' (Garfinkel 2002), it makes it possible to study practical creativity - the way in which people invent new practices. In this paper, I pr…
