Beschreibung:
With its transnational approach, this volume brings together research on aspects of mobility and biography spanning different contexts in Europe to open up new interdisciplinary perspectives. Networks, movements and the capacity to become socially or spatially mobile are not only analysed as structural factors, but rather seen as connected to concrete practices of mobility among different groups in the spheres of business, politics and the arts.
