چرخش به آینده: تحرک پایدار شهری از ۱۸۵۰ (کاوش‌هایی در تحرک، جلد چهارم)

"From local bike-sharing initiatives to overhauls of transport infrastructure, mobility is one of the most important areas in which modern cities are trying to realize a more sustainable future. Yet even as politicians and planners look ahead, there remain critical insights to be gleaned from the history of urban mobility and the unsustainable practices that still impact our everyday lives. United by their pursuit of a "usable past," the studies in this interdisciplinary collection consider the ecological, social, and economic aspects of urban mobility, showing how historical inquiry can make both conceptual and practical contributions to the projects of sustainability and urban renewal"-- Provided by publisher Contents Illustrations Acknowledgments INTRODUCTION Historicizing Sustainable Urban Mobility SECTION I Selling Unsustainable Urban Mobility CHAPTER 1 Designing (Un)Sustainable Urban Mobility from Transnational Settings, 1850–Present CHAPTER 2 History as Motordom’s Tool of Agenda Legitimation: Twentieth-Century U.S. Urban Mobility Trajectories CHAPTER 3 Railway Modernism Losing Out: Lessons from an English Conurbation, 1955–1975 SECTION II Recovering Sustainable Mobilities of the Past CHAPTER 4 Pedestrian Stories: Recovering Sustainable Urban Mobility CHAPTER 5 Load Story: A Century of Pedestrian Logistics in Toulouse CHAPTER 6 Recovering Sustainable Mobility Practices: A Visual History of Turku’s Streetscape 1950–1980 SECTION III Persistence and Sustainable Urban Mobilities CHAPTER 7 State Socialism and Sustainable Urban Mobility: Alternative Paths in St. Petersburg since the 1880s CHAPTER 8 Livable Streets and Hidden Unsustainability: The Biography of a Street in Stockholm CHAPTER 9 Green Urban Spaces and Sustainable Mobility: Parks as Pockets of Persistence since the 1830s SECTION IV Research Agendas for the Future CHAPTER 10 Mobility Justice and the Velomobile Commons in Urban America CHAPTER 11 Toward a Long-Term Measurement System of Sustainable Urban Mobility EPILOGUE Reflections from a Policy Perspective Index Unsustainable practices since the Industrial Revolution still impact our everyday lives.
