Transport Governance for a Future

This innovative book tackles one of the 21st century’s most urgent challenges: steering transport systems toward a socially just, low-carbon future. Taking an interdisciplinary approach, Kate Pangbourne explores transport governance across multiple modes, scales and sectors, from local streets to global shipping and aviation, to formulate practical and strategic guidance. Drawing on original empirical research, chapters discuss governance structures, processes and the need to integrate diverse perspectives and knowledge in collaborative settings. Central to the book is the CATI Transition Momentum Framework, which is designed to help identify leverage points for accelerating change. Pangbourne combines theory-building with practical applications to foster collaboration, equity and resilience in an era of polycrisis. Transport Governance for a Future is an essential resource for students and academics in transport studies and human geography, and has important insights for those in economics, politics and public policy, public administration and management and environmental studies. It is also a useful guide for practitioners and policymakers involved in global transport governance.
