Moderne Gesellschaften durchlaufen aktuell rasante Wandlungsprozesse, die mit den Schlagworten Digitalisierung, Miniaturisierung und Automatisierung in Verbindung gebracht werden. Einige der konkurrierenden soziologischen Deutungsversuche begreifen die Transformationen als eine tiefgreifende und unumkehrbare Mobilisierung des beruflichen und privaten Lebens und der organisatorischen und institutionellen Routinen reflexiv-moderner Gesellschaften. Es ist dabei die Rede von der Netzwerk- und Beschleunigungsgesellschaft, der flüchtigen, digitalen oder dritten Moderne, von einer „sociology of diverse mobilities“ und dem Entstehen einer Echtzeitgesellschaft, die in der Durchsetzung einer umfassenden Kultur der künstlichen Intelligenz gründet.

The discussion on automated mobilities tends to be highly speculative and future-oriented. Many predictions have been made about the ways in which transport will be radically transformed by the ongoing development and implementation of various automated technologies. One criticism leveled at this rapidly expanding societal debate is that it is often based on mere-conjecture. There is a benefit in doing more grounded analysis of automated transport futures, which relate to specific events, organizations, persons, and contexts. In May 2019 Anthony Elliott and Sven Kesselring had the opportunity to talk to Anders Eugensson from the Volvo Group about the current state of the discussion seen from a Europe based car producer. Anders Eugensson has been working for the former Swedish car producer for decades, that is part of the Chinese Geely Group, since 2010. He was involved in many corporate initiatives in the automation of land-based transport. From 2003 to 2018, he served as the Director of Governmental Affairs within Volvo Car Corporation. In 2013, Eugensson received the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s US Government Special Award of Appreciation. Currently, he works as an Autonomous Vehicle consultant to Volvo Trucks and Buses. Anthony Elliott and Sven Kesselring sat down with Eugensson to talk about his thoughts and experiences on how transport systems are being automated in a multitude of ways – some hidden, with others in plain sight. Eugensson mainly talks about the topic against his background at Volvo but much if it is actually representative for many developments in the global automotive industry. The interview took place at the inaugral Workshop event of theErasmus+ Jean Monnet Network “Cooperative, Connected andAutomated Mobility: EU and Australasian Innovations (CCAMEU),held in Munich, Germany in May 2019.

Cities have changed their pulse, their pace, and reach, and the urban scale is an interconnected element of the global “network society” with new forms of social, cultural and economic life emerging. The increase in the amount and speed of mobilities has strong impacts on ecological conditions, and, so far, no comprehensive sustainable solutions are in sight. This paper focuses on the discussion around smart cities, with a specific focus on automation and sustainability. Discourses on automated mobility in urban spaces are in a process of creation and different stakeholders contribute in shaping the urban space and its infrastructures for automated driving in the near or distant future. In many ways, it seems that the current storylines, to a high degree, reinforce and (re)produce the “system of automobility”. Automobility is still treated as the iconic and taken-for-granted form of modern mobility. It seems that most actors from industry, planning, and politics consider it as being sustained through smart and green mobility innovations and modifications. The paper discusses the implication of these techno-policy discourses and storylines for urban planning. It presents preliminary results from ongoing research on policy promotion strategies of automated driving in the region of Munich, Germany.

Traditionally, mobility research originates from a transport perspective. However, in today’s metropolitan regions, a dramatic change is being observed in mobility that is driven by technological and social innovation. This change is reflected through the transformation of scientific analysis and real-life policies from a transport perspective to a mobility perspective. How should we investigate, govern, and manage this change? In this concluding chapter, we present the necessity for the same and some ideas for future research and development. This outlook is based on the experiences of the first phase of the mobil.LAB doctoral research program and articulates questions that need to be addressed in the second phase of this program. New mobility concepts: from selling cars to delivering services New mobility practices: from mode split to reflexive action New mobility policies: from transport departments to mobility networks Shaping sustainable mobility cultures: from theory to practice Our ambition is to share perspectives on relevant issues concerning sustainable mobility in metropolitan regions. We want to contribute toward the exploration, transformation, and realization of the mobility of tomorrow. We look forward to continuing the discussion on our reflections in research and practice.

Since more of twenty years Munich is a sort of laboratory for the new politics of mobility in Germany. The so-called Inzell Initiative has been founded in 1995 to solve conflicts and to enable collaborative planning in the major city in the south of Germany. The initiative is a powerful stakeholder network which has been influencing and shaping local mobility politics significantly. The article reconstructs the rise of the network and analyzes its current activities in planning and envisioning the future of mobility in one of the most powerful economic metropolitan region in Europe. By doing so the author critically asks if there has been progress in transgressing the ‘technocentric planning paradigm’ towards a mobilities paradigm that puts social cohesion in the centre of attention instead of technological feasibility. In fast it seems that the new politics of mobility leads to a re-strengthening of technocentric visions, not at least through the rise of the smart city and mobility discourse.

Megacities are facing multiple challenges in urban mobility, linked to energy scarcity and climate change, unprecedented urbanisation and suburbanisation, as well as local issues of social and spatial inequalities, traffic impacts on health, severe congestion, conflicts over urban space and complex regional governance tasks. This chapter explores how megacities can address these issues to create well-functioning mobility systems, while simultaneously enhancing their liveability, economic performance and sustainability. Every city is unique and complex, so there is no one simple solution. It is argued here, however, that the mobility culture concept helps us to navigate a path through this complexity and find suitable mobility solutions in each city. Some key outcomes of the mobility culture research and workshop exchanges are discussed in terms of local policies for challenges, urban structure and transport supply, the critical value of urban space, travel demand management and creative processes in urban mobility development. Appropriate local strategies have to be developed by communities in a bottom-up and top-down approach.

The paper presents empirical data from a research project on mobility pioneers. It shows new mobility patterns and constellations of mobility and immobility, movement and motility (mobility potential). The author raises the question as to whether the reported subject-oriented strategies for coping with the modern ‘mobility imperative’ open up a perspective on a structural change in the modern concept of mobility and mobility practice. The theory of reflexive modernization is used to discuss this question and to help to understand the relevance of the empirical findings. In concluding, the paper focuses on further mobility research and introduces a distinction between ‘transit spaces’ and ‘connectivity spaces’ as relevant issues for research on new configurations of spatial, social, and virtual mobility.
