With this book the international academic discourse on mobility is taken a step further, through the intertwined perspectives of different social sciences, engineering and the humanities. The Ethics of Mobilities departs from the recent interest in social surveillance, raised by the use of technology for the surveillance and control of mobility as well as for transport. It widens this theme to encompass a broad scale of issues, ranging from freedom and escape to social exclusion and control, thus raising important questions of ethics, identity and religion; questions that are dealt with by a diverse, yet structured range of chapters, arranged around the themes of ethics and religion, and freedom and control. Through their variety and diversity of perspectives, the chapters of this book offer a substantial interdisciplinary contribution to the socially and environmentally relevant discussion about what a technically and economically accelerating mobility does to life and how it might be transformed to sustain a more life-enhancing future. Ethics of Mobilities will excite not only international interest, but will also appeal to scholars across a wide range of disciplines, in fields as diverse as theology and engineering.
'Speedy circulation of commodities, people and ideas transcending barriers of time and space, were hallmarks of modernity. The Ethics of Mobilities, this multi-disciplinary collection, examines tensions arising from the dream and reality of the global "success story". Sharply critical of conventional approaches, it offers more comprehensive perspectives on the subject.' Anne Buttimer, Past President, International Geographical Union 'To speed up or to slow down? In this fresh, pioneering collection of remarkably accessible essays, the issue of mobilities in many contexts is considered from a range of perspectives, including religious studies and theology. Introducing new questions and methodologies, this "must-read" volume marks an important contribution to the bourgeoning scholarly discussion of mobility.' Peter M. Scott, The University of Manchester, UK '...the book is innovative in exploring views of disciplines that only recently have developed an interest in mobility...I would recommend this compilation to scholars and students from humanities, social sciences, and transport engineering interested in empirical and theoretical matters relating to mobility.'
