Project: Territorial mobility and socio-spatial polarisation in Romania

ESR 1 : Aura Moldovan  (Host: UBB)

Description: Spatial perceptions and relations influence regional mobility, while at the same time, mobility constitutes and reproduces such perceptions and relations. By focusing on the linkages between cores and peripheries on the one hand and on the linkages between sender and recipient area of migration and mobility flows on the other, the project aims at understanding the interdependencies between these two major processes in more detail. Through overlapping the spatial layer (of core-periphery relations at a regional scale) with the mobility layer (showing the long- and short-term movements of people through these spaces) a multi-level and multi-method analysis of regions becomes possible.
