Exploring the Relationship between Urban Form, Mobility and Social Well-Being: Towards an Interdisciplinary Field of Sustainable Urban Planning and Transport Development
This comprehensive volume explores the intricate, bi-directional relationships between urban form, physical mobility, and social well-being across neighborhoods, cities, and regions. Recognizing the limitations of fragmented architectural and transport paradigms, the book advocates for a deeply integrated, interdisciplinary approach to sustainable urban planning and transport development strategies. Through an array of empirical chapters focusing heavily on Asian and European contexts, the text introduces novel methodologies for measuring abstract dimensions of eudaimonic and social well-being in response to built environment interventions. Ultimately, this research provides essential data-driven guidance for urban designers, transportation engineers, and public policy practitioners striving to mitigate social exclusion and foster liveable, human-scale communities.
