Island ; Livelihood ; Mobility ; Remittances ; Solomon Islands ; Space time ; Territorial strategy
the spatial mobility of Ontong Javans is linked to their livelihood strategies and to socialmobility. Ontong Javans are highly mobile on a range of spatial and temporal scales. Mobility is shown to be especially linked to changes in livelihood opportunities
Ontong Javans are always on the move to and from their gardens or the sea, between islands within the atoll, and to other localities both within and outside Solomon Islands. The article explores the nature of this mobility and the ways in which

This study uses data from the Longitudinal Survey of England and Wales to examine the relationships between social and geographical mobility. It shows that inter-regional migration is social class specific, that socialmobility and geographical
mobility are positively related, and that inter-regional migration is strongly associated with upward intra-generational socialmobility. - (JPD)

In 1990, the USA had more than 7 million mobile homes (trailers). They now represent one of every five new single family housing units produced in the country. Cheap and unaesthetic, they were originally devised as temporary, but now have become
permanent housing solutions. Mobile home living has gained most acceptance in the South and West. - (DWG)

The A. uses some singular instances of mobile phone conversations to provide an answer as to why this geolinguistic feature has emerged. In an examination of two real cases and a vignette, some light is shed on a more classical spatial topic

Micro-data from Taipei are used to determine which approach is most appropriate for studying housing mobility decisions. Decisions of nuclear and different types of extended family household are compared to test whether the social and economic roles
of different generations affect the househlod decision process. Household mobility is analysed with a richer description of household structure than is found in the current literature.

This paper departs from notions of the ‘demise’ of gay spaces, (re)conceptualizing Sydney’s LGBTQ neighborhoods as mobile and relational moorings that are not fixed and immutable but repeatedly reconstructed and regrounded from flows of people
, knowledge, and capital. It examines the physical displacement, representations of mobility, and embodied mobile practices underpinning these changes in inner-city Sydney. Its purpose is to make conceptual and practical connections between the significance
of ‘place making’ and ‘mobility’ to LGBTQ lives, communities, and politics.

This article discusses the role of the neighbourhood in an era of increased mobility. It explores the consequences of the “new mobilities paradigm”, which argues that the growing importance of flows – of people, goods and information – results
in a deterritorialization of social practices. It argues that the neighbourhood has to be re-imagined as a collection of hybrid nodes connecting a multiplicity of flows that bind actors and objects in order to understand the potential effectiveness of these policies. From
this new mobilities perspective, we make suggestions for future research.

This study develops an agent-based model to simulate social and economic influences on neighborhood choice, in Danville, Illinois. A pattern-oriented approach is employed to examine the role of social ties in shaping intraurban household mobility
, and probability of local ties to be significant in matching observed migration patterns. A nonlinear effect of simulated social networks on household mobility and thus migration error was exhibited in this study.
. Based on 1,000 simulation experiments, a regression of homeowner migration error (the difference between simulated and observed migration) relative to the parameter settings revealed components of social network choice such as income, race
