This book offers insights into urban mobility experiences shaped by networked technologies, bridging theory and empirical investigation in the field.
In Experiencing Networked Urban Mobilities, the authors delve into the multifaceted experiences associated with urban mobility in a networked context. This exploration is pivotal as cities around the globe increasingly adopt digital technologies that transform how people navigate their environments. By examining various modes of transportation and communication, the book reveals the complexities and nuances of urban mobility experiences, highlighting how they are shaped by social, cultural, and technological factors.
The first volume of this series takes a conceptual and theory-driven approach, laying the groundwork for understanding the dynamics of urban mobilities. In contrast, this second volume shifts its focus to empirical investigations, providing readers with real-world insights and case studies. These empirical findings enrich the theoretical discussions and offer practical implications for policymakers, urban planners, and researchers alike.
Experiencing Networked Urban Mobilities serves as an essential resource for those interested in the mobilities paradigm. It provides easy access to diverse themes and methodologies, fostering a deeper understanding of how networked technologies influence urban movement. By bridging theory with practice, this book aims to inspire further research and innovation in the field of urban mobilities.
"This set of vignettes is an important addition to transport scholarship. It invigorates often overlooked and ordinary aspects of moving and waiting and it provides innovative examples of ethnography and participant observation. Pulling together different disciplines in the social sciences, this volume is sure to enliven the expanding critical mobilities research agenda."
