Globalizing Automobilism: Exuberance and the Emergence of Layered Mobility, 1900-1980

By Gijs Mom

Why has "car society" proven so durable, even in the face of mounting environmental and economic crises? In this follow-up to his magisterial Atlantic Automobilism, Gijs Mom traces the global spread of the automobile in the postwar era and investigates why adopting more sustainable forms of mobility has proven so difficult.
