Making Mobilities Matter explores the interconnection between
everyday practice and policy and planning in urban mobilities. It
develops a theoretical framework for understanding everyday life
and its mobilities in a mobile risk society and critiques the
technocratic views that still dominate transport politics and
research. Recognizing the importance of culture and everyday life
in shaping urban mobilities, it examines how contemporary
communities exist, expand, and are sustained through localized and
virtual forms of sharing responsibility, exchanging life
experiences, creating meaning, and giving ontological security to
people's lives. It also offers perspectives on the emotional aspect
of mobilities in everyday life and how utopias can respond to these
emotions. Making Mobilities Matter ends with a discussion of the
prospects for urban mobilities in the future and how these issues
are vital in battling climate change. Making Mobilities Matter is
essential reading for students and researchers seeking to
understand the importance of mobilities in sustainable urban
development and tackling climate change.
