Sharing Mobilities

"As stressed by the authors themselves, a sociological approach in the study of the sharing mobility is now necessary more than ever […]. While having a proactive approach to the topic, the authors demonstrate a high awareness of the limitations and challenges posed by the current sharing mobility as well as by the innovative solutions that they themselves propose/develop. This is an extensive work, reporting a rich case history for every aspect analyzed and referring to a large body of literature, in order to support their idea that changes are possible if based on a social and political attitude shift. A shift that puts mobility justice and relational thinking at its core. The author’s reflections recall the Agyeman et al. (2003) notion of just sustainabilities and invite the rethinking of urban shared mobility with this novel approach. They drive the reader into the discovery of the social and sociological dimensions of sharing mobility, offering insights, classifications and suggestions, that constitute an excellent starting point for further exploration." - Monica Bernardi, Participation and Conflict, The Open Journal of Sociopolitical Studies
