[Esp]En este Trabajo Fin de Grado, estudiaremos el turismo de movilidad bajo el concepto del caravaning y camping, concretamente basándonos en la literatura que existe de ambas modalidades. Con este estudio se pretende esclarecer lo que en ellas se observa más característico y destacable, contextualizaremos en qué consisten y sobre todo el perfil de sus demandantes. Para ello se explorará cual es la oferta y demanda de estas modalidades turísticas de movilidad, su estrategia de desarrollo, la evolución y adaptación que han sufrido debido a la pandemia en la que nos encontramos sumidos y el comportamiento de sus turistas a través del tiempo. [Eng]We will study mobility tourism under the concept of caravanning and camping, specifically based on the existing literature of both modalities in this project of degree. This study aims to clarify what is observed in them more characteristic and remarkable, we will contextualize what they consist of and especially the profile of their applicants. In this case, the supply and demand of these mobility tourism modalities, their development strategy, the evolution and adaptation that they have suffered due to the pandemic in which we are immersed and the behavior of their tourists over time will be explored Facultad de Ciencias de la Empresa Universidad Politécnica de Cartagena

This thesis examines whether residing in a mobile home predicts higher rates of psychological distress. Using combined data from the General Social Survey (1994-2006), I differentiate housing into four distinct categories: mobile homes, conventional homes, apartments, and townhouses. After looking extensively at the history and experience of residing in a mobile home, particularly when viewed through a social stress theory lens, I hypothesize that mobile home residents should have higher levels of psychological distress after socioeconomic variables are controlled. While mobile home residents have the highest raw scores for psychological distress (a composite of depression and anxiety), these did not hold significance after the inclusion of the socioeconomic and control variables. Conversely, social network ties were stronger in the mobile home community than in other types of housing and this remained so after socioeconomic variables were included. This thesis supports Shelton, et al.'s (1983) findings that mobile home residents are in many ways more similar to their conventional home counterparts than those living in apartments. It also supports social stress theory's assertion that social support is associated with better mental health and that socioeconomic factors are paramount when predicting levels of psychological distress.

Although typically associated with the provision of low-cost holiday accommodation, for over 30 years city-based caravan parks have provided an unrecognised source of permanent housing to the lower end of the market. Due to their often dilapidated condition and the demographic profile of their residents, caravan parks do not fit within the Australian housing ideal and are often considered enclaves of despondency. Residents are subject to harsh stereotypes and are often referred to as ‘trailer trash’ – a tag which originated in the USA. However the reality is that caravan parks provide significant social benefits and are unique living environments for their permanent residents. This research involved an extensive discourse analysis complemented by in-depth interviews with caravan park residents and industry stakeholders, which found that the residential experience is typically based on solidarity, companionship, pride and a true sense of belonging. As urban land prices in Australia have increased exponentially and the footprints of its capital cities continue to grow, large parcels of under-developed land accommodating caravan parks have become ‘land banks’ ripe for redevelopment. While it is the park owner’s prerogative to maximise profit, individuals and households are being displaced with little or no compensation, to make way for more lucrative land uses. With deficiencies in the public housing system and the failure of the housing market to provide an adequate level of low-cost accommodation, caravan park residents face an uncertain future, even homelessness. However, the understated impact of this trend is the social implications which affect some of the community’s most vulnerable members. The loss of home, community disintegration and feelings of insecurity appear to be disregarded in the planning process, and this trend seems certain to continue with a lack of responsibility and strategic vision by the government. For this reason, the continued closure of Sydney’s caravan parks should not be tolerated for the purpose of land profiteering. A comprehensive all-of-government and industry response is urgently required to address the threats to Sydney’s caravan parks and to develop mitigation strategies aimed at reducing the resultant outcomes for their vulnerable residents.

Tez (Yüksek Lisans) -- İstanbul Teknik Üniversitesi, Fen Bilimleri Enstitüsü, 2005, Thesis (M.Sc.) -- İstanbul Technical University, Institute of Science and Technology, 2005, Bu çalışmada, ülkemizde uygulanan statik konutlara bir alternatif olabilecek mobil konutlar incelenmiştir. Bu nedenle mobil konutlar ve Türkiye’deki durumu hakkında genel bir araştırma yapılmış ve çıkan veriler doğrultusunda da mobil konutun Türkiye’de uygulanabilirliği irdelenmiştir. Çalışmada mobilitenin ve mobil mimarinin gerek günümüzde gerekse de gelecekteki öneminden bahsedilmiş, gelişmiş ülkelerde çeşitli konut sorunlarının çözümünde kullanılan mobil konut ve mobil konut parkları incelenmiştir. Günümüzde geçici ve sürekli konaklama amaçlı kullanılan mobil konutlar çeşitli örnekler verilerek incelenmiştir. Mobil konutlarla ilgili genel bir taramanın ardından mobil konut sektörünün Türkiye’deki durumu irdelenmiştir. Daha sonraki aşamada ise ilk olarak kampingler, ikinci olarak ülkemizdeki dar gelirlinin mobil konuta bakışı ve üçüncü olarak ise mimarların mobil konuta bakışını kapsayan bir araştırma yapılmıştır. Sonuç olarak ise mobil konutun yerleşik düzenli konutlar içinde alternatif bir konut modeli olabileceği ve bunun için neler yapılabileceğinden bahsedilmiştir., This study proposes an alternative to static housing in Turkey. For this purpose, a research about mobile homes and Turkey has done and applicability of mobile homes in Turkey is examined by the help of the results obtained. The importance of mobility and mobile architecture nowadays and in the future is mentioned. Mobile homes and mobile home parks are explained in detail.
