Territory can be shaped from fragments of different spatial forms. Hence, a problem of the multiplicity of scales in the representation of space is involved. To understand this process of recomposing lifestyles, it is necessary to formulate a means of approaching the question of spatial mobility. Using a case study, the author shows that different types of mobility - local, regional, and international - are at the core of the actual reconfiguration of lifestyles in rural communities in the central region of Portugal.fraRepresentações do espaçoEscalas de representação do espaçoIdentidadesModos de vidaGérer la distance: les sauts d'échelle dans les relations socialesbook part
