Transport, in particular the motor vehicle, is a major source of
environmental disruption and, in the developed world, accounts for
thirty percent of energy consumption. In most countries, transport
policy is a major government concern, yet it is rare for decisions
to be made outside a narrow set of sectoral considerations. This
book, commissioned by the OECD, looks at seven countries; the UK,
the USA, West Germany, France, The Netherlands, Greece and Italy.
Each case demonstrates, in different ways, the problems in
transport policies produced by the failure is a consequence of
departmental division: transport, the environment, the exchequer,
etc. all have their own, quite separate ministries. Here, a group
of economists have demonstrated both the folly of such partial ways
of thinking and, in writing their critiques of specific disaster,
have provided models for ways forward. Originally published in 1990
