The seminar aims to bring together research that analyses social and geographical mobility processes in different moments of history, from the Middle Ages to the present. In their presentations, the researchers will analyse the connection between social and economic changes and changes in residence and will explore new methodologies to analyse this relationship. Research on changes in residence associated with family or marriage, as strategies of social reproduction, will also be presented. In addition, the researchers have been invited to explore the direction – upward or downward – of social mobility, in both women and men, implied by the changes in residence analysed.
