This paper examines social remittances and the role of translocal actors within the context of environmental and climate change. We particularly emphasize that also the lack of movements (immobilities and moorings) plays a crucial role in social remittance pathways, which has so far mostly been neglected. Drawing from ethnographic qualitative research, we examine a case study from Skoura M’Daz, Morocco, where a growing ecotourism sector is being shaped by both migrant and non-migrant actors. We found that immobilities and moorings play a pivotal role in the social remittance pathway in several forms, including: (a) the translocal embeddedness of key actors, (b) the development of local know-how for implementing remittances, and (c) the transformation of social remittances as agents stop and go among origins, transit, and destination areas. Thus, this research suggests that a translocal im/mobility approach, rather than a focus only on the act of migration, opens up new layers of spatial analysis and understanding of social remittances in responding to environmental and climate change.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":51457,"journal":{"name":"Mobilities","volume":"20 6","pages":"Pages 1288-1305"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-11-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145814327","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We analyze whether and how Bicibús initiatives reflect and reproduce inequalities based on gender, class, or migration in Barcelona. Through interviews with 22 parents, including Bicibús organizers and non-participants, we outline processes of exclusion and inclusion. While we find gender parity, the movement is also comprised mostly of middle-class and white families. The schools that mobilize and benefit are predominately in higher-income neighborhoods, while no routes connect marginalized students from lower-income schools. Barriers to participation include work obligations, materials, confidence and physical abilities, social integration, and logistics. This analysis suggests unequal active mobility to school and biased representation in cycling initiatives. To help address mobility injustice in grassroots cycling initiatives such as Bicibús, we recommend raising awareness about racist and classist inequalities, creating supporting structures, and involving schools to make pro-cycling actions more inclusive and diverse.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":51457,"journal":{"name":"Mobilities","volume":"20 6","pages":"Pages 1184-1202"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-11-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145814345","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We thereby showcase the co-constructed and relational configurations of transregional infrastructural interventions wherein China’s shapeshifting involvement is but one modality of the global development paradigm that favours large-scale legacy projects. Our multiscalar study unearths the malleable, versatile and even elusive nature of ‘hard’ mega-infrastructures that are nevertheless neither void of geopolitical and geoeconomic ambitions nor decoupled from broader societal developments. While no one is against a better, safer Rikoti, its exclusionary enactment represents creeping authoritarianism in material form.

The paper elucidates the coexistence of these two rhythms in the context of the daily mobility of working students. The empirical research is based on semistructured interviews conducted in 2024 in the Brno Metropolitan Area (Czechia). The analysis reveals that the coexistence of two different rhythms creates eurhythmic and arrhythmic states, which have a direct impact on students’ mobility strategies. Within eurhythmia, individuals associate mobility between the university and work with multiple meanings, such as transporting as quickly as possible, necessary detour, transition phase or chaining of activities, shaping the structure of their movements in time and space. Due to the variability of constants influencing these rhythms, clashes occur, leading to arrhythmia and changes in meaning and perception of mobility, resulting in new mobility strategies.

This concept was developed from literature that identifies Europeanness as everyday practice, geographical imaginations, tourism, and mobilities. To test the concept, a limited number of tourist pictures that were shared in a pilot study conducted with 24 ‘students-cum-tourists’ – international Master’s-level students who had gone on tourist trips across Europe – are presented. The pilot study results revealed that travelling imaginative geographies reproduces and challenges consolidated narratives on Europeanness, including the role of cultural heritage and tourism mobilities, urban sociability and public space, embodied semiotics, and perceived boundaries.

At the same time, the flea markets exemplify the commodification of nostalgia that can bridge the past and present, leading to the creation of new international trade routes, which reach beyond the countries in question. The findings of the study underscore the enduring appeal of Soviet nostalgia, even among those who did not personally experience that era. Through the exchange of goods, vendors’ and consumers’ stories, the analysis of these markets facilitates a deeper understanding of the region’s complex cultural and political (dis)connectivity. I argue that a mythicized nostalgia for the Soviet era serves as a resource for triggering new informal and formal economic links and channels between local markets and marketplaces in China.

Eleven in-depth Interviews with long-distance walkers revealed a range of walking distances, reflecting the interplay between geographical scale, attitudes towards mobility and travel time, and perceived feasible thresholds. For walk-commuters, the acceptable distance generally aligns with the average commuting time across all modes in London. Maintaining mental health and physical activity emerge as the primary motivation even for the most pragmatic urban commuters. Long-distance walkers in London associate walking with autonomy, flexibility, and bodily freedom—rather than ‘slowness’.
