This book considers gender perspectives on the 'smart' turn in
urban and transport planning to effect-ively provide 'mobility for
all' while simultaneously attending to the goal of creating green
and inclusive cities. It deals with the conceptualisation, design,
planning, and execution of the fast-emerging 'smart' solutions. The
volume questions the efficacy of transformations being brought by
smart solutions and highlights the need for a more robust problem
formulation to guide the design of smart solutions, and further
maps out the need for stronger governance to manage the
introduction and proliferation of smart technologies. Authors from
a range of disciplinary backgrounds have contributed to this book,
designed to converse with mobility studies, transport studies,
urban-transport planning, engineering, human geography, sociology,
gender studies, and other related fields. The book fills a
substantive gap in the current gender and mobility discourses, and
will thus appeal to students and researchers studying mobilities in
the social, political, design, technical, and environmental
sciences.
