ABSTRACT
This chapter focuses on the story of mobility as a free space a place where the individual has his or her own time and the potential to create individual time warps. Time and space are essential to the understanding of mobility. Putnam argues that the fact that we spent so much time in the spaces of mobility has major consequences for communities and social life. O. B. Jensen chooses a different path and instead uses the concepts of armatures and enclaves in describing the space and flows of mobility. Brenholdt speaks of the social-spatialities of coping which is a strategy linking the various arenas of everyday life. It is these coping strategies which have an impact on the development and innovation of the territorial space we live in, and mobility is what allows the excess of these spaces. Brenholdt argues for coping with mobilities in relation to fishing and trade, and described the abstract as spaces of flow or cosmopolitan identity.
