Rhpositive.net is the personal blog of Roland Hochstrasser. The contents presented on these pages are the result of work carried out in various fields, with a particular interest in cultural policies, territory, tourism, and communication strategies. The purpose is certainly not to provide definitive answers, on the contrary: the texts propose reflections that aim to stimulate questions for further developments. Hence the name and slogan, which emphasize the importance of having constructive and positive perspectives.

Khanna, Concept of mobility

Khanna, Concept of mobility

The concept of mobility blends the material and philosophical. It raises questions such as: Why are we moving, and what do those shifts reveal about our needs and desires? Then there are political and legal questions to explore: Who is allowed to move? What restrictions do we face on movement and why? And last but not least, there are normative questions: Where should people go? What is the optimal distribution of people around the world? Mobility is also an intangible and spiritual experience. Pause and appreciate how fluidly our anatomy carries us. Moving stimulates creativity, the process of witnessing ways of life coming together.

Oser: le progrès est à ce prix.
To dare; that is the price of progress.
