Resumen

En esta introducción se presenta un análisis del estado de la cuestión de los debates sociológicos en torno a las principales teorías contemporáneas sobre la movilidad, la inmovilidad y la migración. Se parte de un análisis que tiene en cuenta tanto el giro a la movilidad propuesto por Mimi Sheller y John Urry, como los aportes de la perspectiva transnacional en los estudios migratorios, para recentrar la movilidad en la disciplina de la sociología y, en particular, en las ciencias sociales. Este ejercicio teórico se realiza con el trasfondo de la intersección o articulación explicativa de las múltiples crisis contemporáneas y entendiendo que la forma de rescatar el estudio de la movilidad para la sociología parte de entender que esta está atravesada por procesos de estratificación social.Se realiza, además, una síntesis de las principales contribuciones al debate sobre las cuestiones de movilidad e inmovilidad en el ámbito de la sociología de las migraciones. Además, se incorpora una reflexión en torno al papel de las distintas crisis (especialmente, la recesión económica de 2008, el Brexit y la pandemia por covid-19) en la comprensión de los procesos de movilidad e inmovilidad y su análisis por parte tanto de la sociología como de los estudios migratorios. Por último, se revisan las aportaciones de cada uno de los artículos incluidos en este monográfico al debate académico sobre movilidad/inmovilidad.
