About the book:
In post-industrial society, mobility in the working and leisure related activities
tends to take on subtle differences as far as place of work, free time, recreation,
training and continuing education are concerned. Human mobility is sensitive to change
in the organisational plan and logistics of a model which is mainly concerned with
demand. The concentration of mobility flows occurs as a result of the devolution of
production centres and the consumption of these products is the determining component
of mobility, whereas in the past traditional political administrative boundary trends
were the factors which determined mobility. Inequality in human mobility is considered
from the point of view of the divide between developed and developing countries, the
unskilled/skilled perspective, and the relationships between internal and international
flows.
The fourth volume in the Home of Geography Publication series assembles the research
carried out by the IGU Commission on Global Change and Human Mobility (Globility)
during the course of meetings organised in three locations that are particularly significant
for human mobility: California, where the metaphor "melting pot" has been replaced
by the term "cauldron“; South Africa, on the occasion of an IGU Regional Conference,
whose position enabled the participation of a consistent number of geographers from
developing countries; and, last but not least, Mongolia, where migratory flows have
until today continued to modify the ethnic and cultural map of the region. |
