Summary: Mobility is an expression of modernity, and is considered by some an analytical paradigm of contemporary western society (Sheller and Urry, 2006). Stratification, on the other hand, is a classic sociological dilemma. In this article we propose to look at mobility patterns from the point of view of the social composition of their actors in the Portuguese context. Based on the results of PhD research on Portuguese metropolitan mobility patterns, we explore the relationship between mobility and social classes, with particular emphasis on the choice of automobility. We identify different mobility profiles, mainly according to the means of transport and the socio-professional identity of the studied population.

En este artículo nos proponemos estudiar los patrones de movilidad desde el punto de vista de la composición social de sus actores. Con base en los resultados de una investigación doctoral sobre los patrones de movilidad metropolitana en Portugal, se explora la relación entre la movilidad y las clases sociales, con especial énfasis en la elección de automóvil. Logramos identificar diferentes perfiles de movilidad principalmente según el medio de transporte y la identidad socio-profesional de la población estudiada.La mobilité est une expression de la modernité, et elle est considérée comme un paradigme d’analyse de la société contemporaine occidentale (Sheller et Urry, 2006). En outre, la stratification est un dilemme sociologique. Dans cet article, nous vous proposons de regarder des modèles de mobilité du point de vue de la composition sociale de ses acteurs dans le contexte portugais. Sur la base des résultats d’une thèse de doctorat, nous explorons la relation entre les classes de mobilité et les classes sociales, avec un accent particulier sur le choix de l’auto-mobilité. Nous avons identifié différents profils de mobilité en fonction principalement des moyens de transport et de l’identité socio-professionnelle de la population étudiée.A mobilidade geográfica é considerada por alguns autores um paradigma analítico da sociedade ocidental contemporânea (Sheller e Urry, 2006), o qual ilustra diversos problemas sociais marcantes. Por outro lado, a estratificação social é um dilema clássico cujo estudo permanece central no pensamento sociológico. Neste artigo debruçamo-nos sobre os padrões de mobilidade nas metrópoles portuguesas da perspectiva dos seus atores. Com base nos resultados de uma pesquisa de doutoramento exploramos a relação entre mobilidade geográfica e classes sociais, com particular ênfase na utilização do automóvel particular. Identificámos diferentes perfis de mobilidade de acordo com o meio de transporte e a identidade socioprofissional da população estudada.Mundos Sociais, Iscte-Instituto Universitário de Lisboa2014-11-28info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttps://doi.org/10.7458/SPP2015776222eng2182-79070873-6529Oliveira, Catarina Salesinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP)instname:FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiainstacron:RCAAP2025-05-28T06:34:50Zoai:ojs.revistas.rcaap.pt:article/6222Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireinfo@rcaap.ptopendoar:https://opendoar.ac.uk/repository/71602025-05-29T07:38:36.831670Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP) - FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiafalse
