Transport resources, mobility and unmet transport needs in old age
Previous research has shown that mobility and the ability to leave the home are among the essential aspects of older people's quality of life. However, surveys of older people's access to transport resources and the impact of mobility on welfare and wellbeing are few. Many previous studies are based on small samples or qualitative data. The questions addressed in this paper are how transport resources are distributed among different groups of old…

This phenomenon, ‘gentrification’, seems to be an international trend. Gentrification has been explained in different ways. Mainly, three different types of explanations have been suggested, related to economy/production, consum…
Kan utviklingen i mobilitet og reisevanor fortelle noe om likestilling
Kvinder og mænds rejsevaner og rejsetyper er knytttet til sociale forventninger og normer. Analyser af kønnet mobilitet viser, at transport - i bred forstand - kan være et barometer på dagliglivets ligestilling

Gentrifisering på norsk – urban livsstil eller praktisk organisering av hverdagslivet
Gendered Aspects of Time Related to Everyday Journeys
Time is a significant dimension of the everyday journey. The temporal aspects of a journey are both quantitative and qualitative. The perception of time has been related to different time order systems in various societies and to differences within the spheres of production and reproduction. In this paper the differences between men and women in attitudes towards different time aspects of transport are analysed and discussed, with the empirical r…
