It goes beyond the traditional analysis of 'transport poverty' and explores innovative approaches to understanding mobility inequalities and the social construction of mobility disadvantages. The growing recognition of mobility poverty's significance in perpetuating social exclusion and economic deprivation has fueled the ongoing debate surrounding this issue.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this context, this book delves into the social construction of mobility poverty by examining the diverse experiences of social groups in different geographical contexts. It considers factors such as the role of transport regimes and their social value in shaping individual mobility needs. By analyzing actual travel patterns of individuals, the book identifies gaps between articulated and unarticulated needs, shedding light on the complex dynamics at play.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThrough fieldwork conducted in six European countries—Greece, Portugal, Italy, Luxembourg, Romania, and Germany—this book offers a comparative analysis of the global phenomenon. It provides valuable insights for planners, sociologists, geographers, mobility\/transport researchers, mobility advocates, policy-makers, and transport practitioners.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Open Access version of this book, accessible at https:\/\/doi.org\/10.4324\/9780367333317, has been made available under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license.
