Institut für Geographische Wissenschaften Anthropogeographie The Power of Mobility From distant discourse to embodied experience Dr. Noel B. Salazar University of Leuven It is important to identify not only various forms of human mobility but also the (re)production of socio-culturally shared meanings through diverse discourses as well as practices of movement. Any discourse and experience of human mobility is inevitably value-laden. Distinctions are made, which ultimately feed back into the production of the social through culturally inflected notions of what ‘mobility’ means. The currently dominant mobility discourse, for instance, equates geographical movement with social fluidity. In this talk, I illustrate the dialectic relation between ideologies of (im)mobility and actual practices of people ‘on the move’. Gastvortrag 5.
