Mobility has become a central aspect of many people’s lives. This is the natural result of the massive investments made in the transport sector throughout the world. This poses important questions: how is mobility influencing the knowledge we have and the way we think? Through the use of an alternative paper (and presentation) structure we facilitate the exploration of multiple directions of academic scrutiny in the search for a solution for these questions. This paper is also a tool for researchers and policy-makers to become more insightful about how to think about mobility in a holistic and creative way. To critically analyse how mobility influences the way we think is important because mobility can become such a central aspect of daily life that we might eventually fail to see its role in the development of our ideas. Mobility can become an (invisible) tyrant. This paper aims to improve our understanding about these issues, and to bring to the light the power of mobility in the shaping of our minds.
