Globalizing Automobilism is written by Gijs Mom and published by Berghahn Books. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 1789204623 (ISBN 10) and 9781789204629 (ISBN 13).
Why has “car society” proven so durable, even in the face of mounting environmental and economic crises? In this follow-up to his magisterial Atlantic Automobilism, Gijs Mom traces the global spread of the automobile in the postwar era and investigates why adopting more sustainable forms of mobility has proven so difficult. Drawing on archival research as well as wide-ranging forays into popular culture, Mom reveals here the roots of the exuberance, excess, and danger that define modern automotive culture.
