Abstract

Commuting is not the form of mobility that people first speak about when referring to life changing events, or key moments in the constitution of their cultural identities, but it is here, in mundane moments of mobility (and immobility) that people develop both a cultural and corporal perception of the state of their lives and the world around them. This article briefly sketches out some of the cultural dynamics embedded in the routines of commuting.
