The Marshrutka Project\u2019s final conference: Spatial dynamics of informal and shared mobilities<\/p>\n
This conference aims to critically reflect on shared and informal mobilities and their implication for spatial and social dynamics. It questions existing discourses on sharing by paying attention to corporate strategies, labour conditions and implications on public transport systems. Likewise, it challenges existing visions of informal transport as the past of urban transportation by examining its ongoing presence in different global regions. We thus invite contributions for following and related themes:<\/p>\n
Socio-spatial comparisons between informal and shared mobilities
\nSocial, economic and environmental ambitions of ride-sharing
\nImpact of digitalisation on informal transport
\nLabour conditions of informal and shared mobility workers
\nInformal and shared mobilities complementing or competing with public transport
\nInformal and shared mobilities and class, race and gender inequalities
\nMobility justice and spatial justice perspectives on informal and shared mobilities<\/p>\n
Dates: 8-10 November 2018;<\/p>\n
Location: TU Berlin main campus
\nOrganisers: Leibniz Institute for Regional Geography, Leipzig, Germany; Technical University of Berlin, Berlin, Germany<\/p>\n
