ABSTRACT

This conclusion presents some closing thoughts on the key concepts discussed in the preceding chapters of this book. The book explores the theories that discuss the relationship between mobility research and transport was used as a way of understanding the dynamics of mobility. It is a contribution to the empirical research on everyday life mobilities where the construction of meaning is examined through qualitative research. Illuminating and identifying structural stories enabled to examine and unearth the apparent rationalities individuals use in everyday life. Also, it proved to be a way of understanding the individual's needs and utopias, rarely articulated, when asked about everyday life mobilities. The mobility patterns of the individual are based on a series of conscious and unconscious choices. European and international politics advertising both locally and globally and news from all parts of the world play a key role in need for mobility in everyday life, and not the least for production and reproduction of structural stories.
