In dit boek wordt gekeken naar motieven voor frequent gebruik van de auto en wordt geprobeerd vast te stellen hoe autoafhankelijk onze samenleving is. Ook wordt gekeken naar de 20% van de huishoudens zonder auto; hoe regelen die hun levens? Daarnaast staat de auteur stil bij de perspectieven voor de nabije toekomst: hoe gaan we bijvoorbeeld om met de doelen voor het tegengaan van de opwarming van de aarde?

Cars are essential in modern Western societies. Some even say that our modern lifestyles would have been impossible without cars. The dependency of Western societies on our cars is a unique situation in history, but does not get much attention; car use is seen as just a normal situation. The population at large knows the risks, knows the disadvantages, experiences the advantages and keeps driving. Using data from Western Europe, this book examines three key themes: frequent car use, car dependence, and the future of passenger car mobility in societies. In conclusion, in modern Western risk societies, more attention needs to be paid to car dependence, its driving forces, its advantages, its problems and challenges for the future.

The integration of land use and transport planning is key to making cities sustainable and liveable. Accessibility can provide an effective framework for this integration. However, today there is a significant gap between the advances in scientific knowledge on accessibility and its effective application in planning practice. In order to close this gap, Designing Accessibility Instruments introduces a novel methodology for the joint assessment and development of accessibility instruments by researchers and practitioners. The book: provides a theoretical and professional analysis of the main concepts behind the definition, use and measurement of accessibility; undertakes a comprehensive inventory and critical analysis of accessibility instruments, focusing on the bottlenecks in their transposition to planning practice; introduces and applies a novel methodology for the assessment and improvement of the practical use and usefulness of accessibility instruments; presents six in-depth illustrative case study applications of the methodology, representing a range of cities with different geographical and institutional settings, and different levels of urban and transport planning integration. The book is supported by a companion website – www.accessibilityplanning.eu – which extrapolates its content to a broader scope and keeps it updated and valid with new iterations of the methodology and further advances on the initial and new case studies.

The current fossil fuel-based system of mobility is associated with a wide range of environmental and social problems. There is a growing body of literature on system innovations and transitions which has as a common understanding that long-term transformative change is necessary to deal with these complex problems. However, knowledge on the crucial role of citizen-consumers in sustainable mobility transitions is still underdeveloped. By incorporating the viewpoint of consumption patterns and everyday life routines, this book provides (new) knowledge on the role of citizen-consumers in sustainable mobility transitions. Theoretically, a practice based approach is developed as a novel framework to analyse, understand and influence transition processes to sustainable mobility at the level of everyday life. The focus in each of the three cases studies is on situated interactions between consumers and producers. Amongst these is an analysis of the role environmental information and subsidies in new car purchasing. Also, various examples in which an attempt was made to orchestrate a (modal) shift in commuting practices are examined. Each of the empirical case studies shows the important role of contextual factors in understanding and influencing mobility behaviour of citizen-consumers. In addition, this book helps to understand how and why innovation in mobility practices takes place or not.

Inclusive Transport: Fighting Involuntary Transport Disadvantages offers readers profound and multifaceted insights into transportation and social equity, guiding transportation and urban studies researchers, planners, and policy makers in evaluating potential solutions to this complex issue. It considers discrimination and its societal consequences, providing a needed perspective on who is left out of transportation planning, and why. The book is systematically divided into 2 parts, Part A is problem oriented and explores the main problems to the transportation disadvantaged; accessibility and affordability. It looks at the consequences of non-accessibility, the problems non-car owners face, and the interplay between housing and transportation; Part B is policy oriented and analyses how current policies tend to forget transport disadvantages. It looks at pragmatic solutions for transport disadvantaged and ends with a design for inclusive transport, being a more radical approach combining sustainability challenges, people’s behaviours and emotions, creating more just and equitable mobility. Synthesizes academic research and narratives on transport disadvantage and the transport disadvantaged, linking the research with current mobility policies and practices Connects the fight on transport disadvantages with sustainable and smart mobility strategies and looks into car sharing, ride sharing and individualising public transport while de- individualizing car use Has an extensive usage of data, figures, and examples from around the world, and inspiring mobility plans and policies

Hoe gaat het met u? Wedden dat u `drukdrukdruk antwoordt? Omdat het waar is natuurlijk. Maar ook omdat het nu eenmaal goed staat. Iemand die `maar stilletjes antwoordt, is een loser. In onze samenleving is bewegen beter dan stilzitten en veel verkeer een teken van economische groei en dus vooruitgang. Toch? Als u daar ook wel eens aan twijfelt (wakker liggend van het verkeerslawaai of angstig wachtend op het verlossende moment dat uw tiener thuiskomt), dan is dit boek er voor u. Kris Peeters zet doel en middel weer op zn plaats en de puntjes op de i. Samen met u maakt hij een ontdekkingsreis langs roddelmobiliteit, de trampoline van het Goede Leven en het mysterie van het Verdwijnend Verkeer, op zoek naar een antwoord op de vraag hoe mobiliteit ons (weer) gelukkig kan maken. Fasten your seatbelts voor een polemische rollercoaster van ideeën waarin pretparken niet toevallig een prominente rol spelen. Kris Peeters is politicoloog en antropoloog. Zijn eerdere boeken 'Het voorruitperspectief' en 'De file voorbij' kenden veel bijval, zijn opiniebijdragen gelden als landmarks voor ons mobiele denken.
