This article is expected to provide an improved methodology for the construction of a macro-meso-micro European mobility model within a multidisciplinary framework. Such a research is supposed to lead to a better understanding of the spatial and social structure of the relations between European countries and citizens that we grasp by studying the diffusion of foreign Euro coins. An Agent-Based Model prototype is developed in this sense to bring to light multiple components of diffusion acting on different spaces and temporalities. Assumptions on macroscopic mobility are taken into account by spatial interaction models and agent-based models, with sociological parameters of individual behavior being mostly related to the social network analysis and the time geography in order to model mobility decisions (scheduling of activities and destination choices).
