目的——研究交通运输与气候变化之间关系的社会层面,特别是减少交通运输部门气候变化影响的政策直接和/或间接产生意外负面后果的可能性。它以英国当前政策为例作为主要关注点。 方法论/途径——结合文献、政策审查以及通过大量相关研究的初步实地调查收集的定量和定性证据。 研究结果——我们发现,不同的社会群体在使用交通和适应交通系统变化方面可能会经历截然不同的结果,无论这些结果是专门针对某些个人还是更系统地应用于整个人口。因此,政策制定者必须充分了解不同社会群体对旨在解决与交通相关的气候变化的政策的潜在脆弱性和恢复力。应根据收入、潜在脆弱性及其时空分布以及对拟议干预措施的恢复力/适应性,对社会影响的关键组成部分进行系统分析。这继续对交通政策制定领域的研究提出重要的未来挑战。 原创性/价值——本章强调减少运输部门气候变化影响的政策可能直接和/或间接产生意想不到的负面社会后果。
Purpose – The social dimensions of the relationship between transport and climate change are examined, in particular, the potential for unintended negative consequences to directly and/or indirectly arise from policies to reduce the climate change impact of the transport sector. It takes the example of current policies in the UK as its primary focus. Methodology/approach – A combination of literature, policy review and the quantitative and qualitative evidence gathered through primary fieldwork research from a number of related studies. Findings – It is identified that different social groups can experience very different outcomes in accessing transport and adapting to changes to the transport system, whether these are uniquely targeted towards certain individuals or more systemically applied across the whole population. For this reason, it is essential that policy makers fully understand the potential vulnerability and resilience of different social groups to policies that are intended to address transport-related climate change. The key component of social impacts should be systematically analyzed, by income, potential vulnerability and their spatial and temporal distribution, as well as according to resilience/adaptability to the proposed intervention. This continues to pose an important future challenge for research in this area of transport policy making. Originality/value – This chapter highlights the potential for unintended negative social consequences to directly and/or indirectly arise from policies to reduce the climate change impact of the transport sector.
