This volume compiles contributions from international scholars on
the social impacts of urban mobility and discussions on concepts
and methods to examine the distributional effects of transport
policies in Latin America. Chapters discuss concepts and methods
for explaining the distributional effects of transport policies and
for exploring alternatives to ensure equity and non-discrimination
in access for more inclusive cities. Recognizing the deep
relationship between accessibility, equity and inclusion, the
contributions in this book are collated in three sections:
structural dimensions of accessibility, active travel and local
accessibility, and accessibility of emerging mobilities. The book
builds on a balanced collection of case studies and comparative
perspectives that showcase territorial, economic, political and
social drivers of urban mobility and the development of accessible
and inclusive urban spaces in Latin American cities.
