Trans locality: Concepts, Applications, and Novel Perspectives on Research

Abstract

The trans locality research paradigm is currently gaining popularity as a means of addressing research concerns. There has been a new trend where more academics are using conceptual frameworks from various academic fields to analyze the phrase. These frameworks specifically emphasize the complex connections between mobility, migration, and the sociospatial connections that extend beyond geographical limits. The authors frequently strive to incorporate perspectives from various regions of the globe while also endeavoring to mitigate certain constraints inherent in this conventional study framework. The term of translocality is employed to elucidate the socio-spatial dynamics and the processes of simultaneity and identity formation that take place across various boundaries, including those that extend beyond nation states. This paper analyzes the evolution of the concept of translocality over the 13th and 14th centuries and provides a concise overview of the characteristics noted by multiple authors. In this talk, our primary objectives are to elucidate the fundamental principles of location and mobility and to enumerate the various academic disciplines in which these principles have been utilized. The findings of our analysis indicate that employing a translocal technique has the potential to generate novel and profound insights in various fields.
