I'm an indie-film director.
There's not really a name for the camera move, but I can tell you how it's done.
First though, I'm not sure if you're referring to when the background is moving left-to-right (or the opposite) or when the background is moving away from, or towards the camera.
I'll give you both techniques:
#1 - The put the person on a rotating platform with the camera on it with them. So the camera is locked down on the person, but they're both spinning. They usually use a fairly long lens, which exaggerates the speed of movement of the background, as well as throwing it out of focus.
#2. - They dolly in, while zooming out (or vice versa). It makes the background seem to move, and to get bigger (or smaller) in an exaggerated way compared to the movement In (or out) of the camera.
I think Hitchcock did it first, or at least most famously, in Vertigo. Lots of people have done it since.

Some interesting info from the guy above me, although I'm not sure that's what you meant.
You were referring to something like the scene in Trainspotting when Ewan McGregor's sitting drinking a pint, and he appears to be normal speed, and everyone else around him is coming and going at double the speed. Is that the kind of thing you mean? I've no idea what it's called, but maybe our film director friend could enlighten us!
