    Assignment Topics
    How does the mobilities turn suggest new ways of being? The mobilities paradigm
    claims to incorporate new ways of theorising about how increased levels and new
    forms of mobility lie at the centre of constellations of power, the creation of
    identities and the micro geographies of everyday life”, to quote Tim Cresswell (2011, p.
    551). What does this mean and how can a paradigm (a trope for framing research)
    contribute to changing sociocultural values? Consider concepts that may be affected
    and use examples in order to explore these ideas.
