Gendering Smart Mobilities (Paperback): Hilda Romer Christensen, Lena Levin, Tanu Priya Uteng Gendering Smart Mobilities (Paperback)
Hilda Romer Christensen, Lena Levin, Tanu Priya Uteng
R1,304 Discovery Miles 13 040 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

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.

Mobilities in Life and Death - Negotiating Room for Migrants and Minorities in European Cemeteries (1st ed. 2023): Avril... Mobilities in Life and Death - Negotiating Room for Migrants and Minorities in European Cemeteries (1st ed. 2023)
Avril Maddrell, Sonja Kmec, Tanu Priya Uteng, Mariske Westendorp
R1,412 Discovery Miles 14 120 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This open access book focuses on migrant and minority cemetery needs through the conceptual lens of the mobilities of the living and the dead. In doing so, the book brings migration and mobility studies into much-needed dialogue with death studies to explore the symbolically and politically important issue of culturally inclusive spaces of cemeteries and crematoria for migrants and established minorities. The book addresses majority and minority cemetery and crematoria provisions and practices in a range of North West European contexts. It describes how the planning, management and use of cemeteries and crematoria in multicultural societies can tell us about the everyday lived experiences of migration and migrant heritage, urban diversity, social inclusion and exclusion in Europe, and how these relate to migrant and minority experience of lived citizenship, practices of territoriality and bordering, colonial/postcolonial narratives. The book will be of interest to readers in the fields of migration/mobilities studies and death studies, as well as policy makers and practitioners, such as local government officers, cemetery managers and city planners.

Urban Mobilities in the Global South (Hardcover): Tanu Priya Uteng, Karen Lucas Urban Mobilities in the Global South (Hardcover)
Tanu Priya Uteng, Karen Lucas
R4,438 Discovery Miles 44 380 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

The book considers urban mobilities and immobilities in the Global South through an exploration of the theoretical and methodological entry points that can be used to further the agenda of transport planning. Transport system improvements can (and do) have complex and unequal impacts on different sectors of society. Conventional approaches to analysing travel demand and transport system performance developed in the 'Global North' are typically ill-equipped to identify and understand the complexities and inequities in urban areas of the Global South. Using case studies from urban Africa and Asia, the book addresses the need to understand the 'lived world' of mobilities and use this knowledge to address issues that are central to our urban existence in the 21st century.

Gendered Mobilities (Paperback): Tanu Priya Uteng Gendered Mobilities (Paperback)
Tanu Priya Uteng; Tim Cresswell
R1,592 Discovery Miles 15 920 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Being socially and geographically mobile is generally seen as one of the central aspects of women's wellbeing. Alongside health, education and political participation, mobility is indispensable in order for women to reach goals such as agency and freedom. Building on new philosophical underpinnings of 'mobility', whereby society is seen to be framed by the convergence of various mobilities, this volume focuses on the intersection of mobility, social justice and gender. The authors reflect on five highly interdependent mobilities that form and reform social life: *
