Handbook of Transportation and Public Policy - Anthony Perl;Rosalie Singerman Ray;Louise Reardon

Expert authors from across the globe provide a comprehensive overview of the role that politics plays in transportation policymaking, highlighting the value of robust and critical analysis for identifying and developing more equitable and inclusive approaches to transportation policymaking. They examine how society can govern mobilities across multiple scales and explore how the benefits and burdens of transportation are distributed. The Handbook demonstrates how configurations of beliefs, interests, and institutions influence policy and outlines emerging methodologies that can be employed to increase understanding of current and emerging transportation challenges.

Presenting a new perspective on the ongoing scholarly and policy discussions in transportation, this Handbook is an essential resource for students and scholars in transport planning, political science, public policy and administration, regulation and governance, and geography. It will also appeal to practitioners and policymakers seeking to further understand the political dimensions of transportation.
