Which forces lie behind the development of our mobility in the past centuries and will most likely shape the future as well? The desire for speed is important, and so is urbanization. Making mobility sustainable, will only have a small impact on our mobility behaviour.

In several lectures, I extend the analyses of my book ‘New Mobility’. Which policies are needed to adapt our societies to the current changes in economy, urbanization and mobility?
