This edited volume discuses urban transport issues, policies, and
initiatives in twelve of the world's major emerging economies -
Brazil, China, Colombia, India, Indonesia, Iran, Mexico, Nigeria,
Russia, South Africa, Turkey, and Vietnam - countries with large
populations that have recently experienced large changes in urban
structure, motorization and all the associated social, economic,
and environmental impacts in positive and negative senses.
Contributions on each of these twelve countries focus on one or
more major cities per country. This book aims to fill a gap in the
transport literature that is crucial to understanding the needs of
a large portion of the world's urban population, especially in view
of the southward shift in economic power. Readers will develop a
better understanding of urban transport problems and policies in
nations where development levels are below those of richer
countries (mainly in the northern hemisphere) but where the rate of
economic growth is often increasing at a faster rate than the
wealthiest nations.
