Beskrivning
Elgar Research Agendas outline the future of research in a given area. Leading scholars are given the space to explore their subject in provocative ways, and map out the potential directions of travel. They are relevant but also visionary. Transport significantly affects everyday life in our modern world. Highlighting key challenges and opportunities, this Research Agenda identifies current and future themes that are central to both research and practice in the transport sector. With chapters written by eminent scholars and practitioners, it provides readers with a state-of-the art analysis of the topic. This Research Agenda identifies areas of research required to inform transport policy development that will in turn support improved societal outcomes. Chapters examine transport policy from a range of different viewpoints, offering insights into socio-economic environments, the importance of technology, and the differing approaches to transport policy across five continents. Transport is on the cusp of major transformation, and such disruptive change demands the broad, integrated approach that this Research Agenda provides. Written in a non-technical style, this book will appeal to transport policy practitioners, looking to improve current infrastructure to better suit the needs of the future. Public policy and geography scholars focusing on the impact and importance of transport will also find this to be a valuable read.

Recensioner i media

'Collectively the chapters summarise the state of the art, identify areas of challenge and set out a wide-ranging research agenda to inform the major components of transport policy, at various geographic scales, drawing on the views and experiences of an impressive range of internationally leading academics and practitioners. A rich source of research topics and insights.'--Peter Jones, University College London, UK'By systematically analysing issues, modes and regions, a collection of world-leading academics suggest how transport policy researchers should respond to the disruptions posed to the global transport system by shared mobility, next generation vehicles, digital technologies and unprecedented economic, demographic and environmental change. The future of transport policy research is here, in all its intriguing complexity.'--John Preston, University of Southampton, UK'This book is essential reading for designing research relevant to the mobility challenges of the 21st century. It is remarkably comprehensive, probing contemporary issues across all modes and regions of the world. Its attention to disruptive technologies, safety, and new mobility platforms on land, air, and sea is a plus.'--Robert Cervero, University of California, Berkeley, US
