本文通过关注职业汽车流动性和居住来探讨流动性和移动工作之间的关系。根据对英格兰东南部卡车司机/驾驶进行的定性研究，该研究表明，当驾驶停止时，就会出现居住现象；它是基于驾驶室的过境住宅和游牧住宅，植根于驾驶室的物质文化并受其限制；并且它被转移到道路和物流网络的边缘和间隙。该论文强调了基于出租车的居住的不适及其在卫生方面的局限性，并研究了配送中心最近的发展如何通过拒绝基于出租车的居住而加剧了不适。这些发展通过临时居住重塑了职业汽车流动性和居住的关系，并且是理解当前卡车驾驶劳动力供应危机的关键。
This paper examines the relation between mobilities and mobile work through a focus on occupational auto-mobility and habitation. Drawing on qualitative research conducted on truck drivers/driving in South-east England, it shows habitation emerges when driving stops; that it is cab-based dwelling-in-transit and nomadic dwelling rooted in and bounded by the material culture of the cab; and that it is displaced to the margins and interstices of the road and logistical network. The paper highlights the discomfort of cab-based habitation and its limits, in sanitation, and examines how recent developments at distribution centres intensify discomfort by denying cab-based habitation. These developments recast the relation of occupational auto-mobility and habitation through transient dwelling and are key to understanding the current crisis in labour supply in truck driving.
