This special issue of Canadian Journal of Sociology on ‘Contentious Mobilities’ showcases Canadian scholarship that investigates mobilities in the context of unequal power relations. Mobilities become contentious when they confront the systematic exclusion of others, advance unconventional mobile practices and defy or destabilize existing power relations. Increasingly, mobilities are contentious in relation to rapidly changing economies, societies and environments. This special issue stages an overdue encounter between the mobilities paradigm and research on sociopolitical contention. Simultaneously, this special issue addresses an empirical gap, featuring Canada as a prolific and influential site for leading-edge research. Five key themes emerge amongst the diverse papers in this issue: life and death, employment-related mobility, intersectionality/in(visibility), governance, and automobility. Further, we identify five potential topics for Canadian mobilities, including climate change, disaster, technology and travel, the good city and methods.

This issue of the Canadian Journal of Zoology exhaustively reviews most major aspects of protochordate biology by specialists in their fields. Protochordates are members of two deuterostome phyla that are exclusively marine. The Hemichordata, with solitary enteropneusts and colonial pterobranchs, share a ciliated larva with echinoderms and appear to be closely related, but they also have many chordate-like features. The invertebrate chordates are composed of the exclusively solitary cephalochordates and the tunicates with both solitary and colonial forms. The cephalochordates are all free-swimming, but the tunicates include both sessile and free-swimming forms. Here I explore the history of research on protochordates, show how views on their relationships have changed with time, and review some of their reproductive and structural traits not included in other contributions to this special issue.
