Collaborative governance is the idea that governments, civil society, and private actors can engage in collective policy-making processes. However, which structures and practices facilitate or hinder the deliberative dimension of collaborative governance? This research is based on case studies of urban planning processes carried out in Curitiba (Br...

Mercier and his colleagues draw from the data on instrument use of the preceding chapter to offer some unusual and possibly innovative thoughts on the interaction between government and governance modes, two policy configurations usually seen as opposites. These two presumably opposing procedures are in fact tied together in a complex and back and...

This chapter traces the urban transport history of Seattle, Montreal, and Curitiba based on the respondents’ recount of the policies and instruments used by successive governments. If the three cities have historically been successful in setting the conditions for high transit ridership and active modes of transport, they are now at different stage...

In this quite short and incisive concluding chapter, the authors use their study of sustainable urban transport to better understand the complex policy of reducing greenhouse gases. If worldwide urban transport is taken as a microcosm of what lies ahead in reducing greenhouse gases, it is easy to be pessimistic, say the authors. Indeed, the transpo...

In this chapter, the authors look at the three main challenges that cities and metropolitan areas face in dealing with the challenge of sustainable transport. In the context of increasing liberal values and privatization policies, they face a planning challenge, at a time when government intervention is seen as lacking in efficiency. Second, the ci...

This volume explores the governance patterns of three cities of the Americas, Seattle, Montreal, and Curitiba, which all present different but interesting cases in dealing with sustainable urban transport challenges. The authors study empirical data from these three cities to analyze how specific governmental and policy instruments (planning, consu...

La convergence de la crise climatique avec la pandémie de la Covid-19 a permis de confirmer, voire de révéler pour plusieurs, des phénomènes comme la lourde dépendance à l’automobile, la place prépondérante qu’elle occupe dans nos villes et la tyrannie qu’elle impose dans la conception des espaces et des milieux de vie. Cet article avance l’idée se...

Cities around the world are trying to implement transport policies to reduce the dramatic environmental impacts of motorized modes. There is no single method to determine the success of sustainable transport systems, but comparative studies can be illuminating despite inevitable data inconsistencies. This study brings to the forefront different sty...

This article focuses on the integration of transportation and land use planning at the metropolitan level in North America. Using semi-structured interviews and documentary sources, two large metropolitan areas, Toronto and Chicago, are compared in terms of their institutional evolution towards the goal of integrating regional transportation and la...

Este artigo compara as políticas públicas e os processos pelos quais o planejamento de transporte e uso do solo estão integrados na área metropolitana de Toronto (Canadá) e de Chicago (Estados Unidos). A partir de 24 entrevistas semiestruturadas com respondentes chave, descreve-se a sequência de intervenções efetuadas por atores governamentais e nã...

Cet article porte sur l’intégration de l’aménagement du territoire et des transports au niveau métropolitain en Amérique du Nord. Au moyen d’une analyse de contenu d’entretiens semi-dirigés et d’une recherche documentaire, deux grandes régions métropolitaines, Toronto et Chicago, sont comparées quant à leur cheminement institutionnel vers une plus...
