Disability, Accessibility and Mobility Justice

Available open access digitally under CC-BY-NC-ND licence.

This book explores the accessibility and inclusiveness of pedestrian environments and interactions, and the effectiveness of law purporting to address inequality in this context. Its thought-provoking analysis is based on extensive interviews with relevant pedestrians and stakeholders in India, Kenya, the Netherlands, UK and US.

Bridging socio-legal studies, disability studies and mobility studies, the authors demonstrate how relevant barriers affect not only disabled people but also older adults, children and carers. It is an essential read for urban planners, disability rights advocates, legal scholars and policy makers committed to enhancing mobility justice and creating inclusive cities that work for everyone.
