Description
Manifold Mobility Patterns among Bogota's Inhabitants.
To improve the analysis of urban dynamics, we need a better grasp of the mobility patterns of urban dwellers, at various space and time levels (from day to day commuting to life histories) as well as across social groups (from the mere individual to the family, or her/his network). This is the perspective used throughout this paper, based on demographic data collected in Bogota in 1993. The paper will first describe the data and introduce some conceptual difficulties related to its analysis. It will then bring into view the positive results of this approach of mobility for its perception of the complex mobility patterns of individuals and families. With the help of concepts such as residential space and residential system, the author focuses on the relationships between the different patterns of mobility and the choices among those possibilities at individual, household and family levels. Acknowledging the multilocal characteristic of spatial patterns of mobility gives the opportunity of a fresh view on urban research fields, which were traditionally investigated solely through housing.

Mieux appréhender les pratiques de mobilité des citadins, à différentes échelles spatio-temporelles (du quotidien au biographique) et sociales (de l'individu à la famille et au réseau de relations) s'impose pour progresser dans l'analyse des dynamiques urbaines. Telle est la démarche adoptée dans cet article, sur la base de résultats d'enquêtes démographiques réalisées en 1993 à Bogota. Après une présentation de l'information recueillie et de certains problèmes conceptuels que pose son analyse, cet article montre l'apport de cette approche de la mobilité pour la compréhension des pratiques spatiales complexes des individus et des familles. Recourant aux notions d'espace résidentiel et de système résidentiel, l'auteur considère l'articulation entre les différentes échelles de la mobilité, ainsi que les arbitrages opérés entre elles, au niveau des individus, des ménages et des familles. La reconnaissance du caractère multilocal des pratiques spatiales offre l'opportunité de revisiter avec une perspective nouvelle des champs de recherche urbaine étudiés jusque là à travers le seul logement.
