The current fossil fuel-based system of mobility is associated with
a wide range of environmental and social problems. There is a
growing body of literature on system innovations and transitions
which has as a common understanding that long-term transformative
change is necessary to deal with these complex problems. However,
knowledge on the crucial role of citizen-consumers in sustainable
mobility transitions is still underdeveloped. By incorporating the
viewpoint of consumption patterns and everyday life routines, this
book provides (new) knowledge on the role of citizen-consumers in
sustainable mobility transitions. Theoretically, a practice based
approach is developed as a novel framework to analyse, understand
and influence transition processes to sustainable mobility at the
level of everyday life. The focus in each of the three cases
studies is on situated interactions between consumers and
producers. Amongst these is an analysis of the role environmental
information and subsidies in new car purchasing. Also, various
examples in which an attempt was made to orchestrate a (modal)
shift in commuting practices are examined. Each of the empirical
case studies shows the important role of contextual factors in
understanding and influencing mobility behaviour of
citizen-consumers. In addition, this book helps to understand how
and why innovation in mobility practices takes place or not.
