Acerca deste libro electrónico

Dutch Cycling Culture explores why cycling is so integral to daily life and national identity in the Netherlands. It examines how the Dutch have achieved near-ubiquitous bicycle usage, far beyond just recreation, by focusing on the historical development of cycling infrastructure and its impact on social equity. The book reveals that the Dutch modal transport share differs significantly from other developed nations due to deliberate policy choices that prioritize cycling over car-centric development. The book uniquely intertwines quantitative data with qualitative insights, providing a nuanced understanding of how policy, infrastructure, and culture interact. It progresses from introducing core concepts of urban cycling and sustainable transport to examining specific case studies and cultural narratives. Dutch Cycling Culture demonstrates that the widespread adoption of cycling is not accidental, but rather a result of sustained investment and cultural embrace, making it a valuable resource for those seeking to understand and potentially replicate this model elsewhere.
