It considers the influence of self-organisation: how the mobility of an individual is constituted by structures such as transport systems or socio-economic structural factors, as well as influenced by individual decisions. Where most transport studies focus on the influence of factors such as income inequality, the gender gap, and the built environment, this book fills a gap in paying particular attention to the influence of individual decisions on commuting. Given the prevalence of the former in research, government decision-makers are often constrained by these approaches and fail to understand the commuting problems of the poor. This book argues that the self-organisation approach provides some ideas that are outside the common conceptual framework in conventional transport planning and looks to improve mobility of lower-income commuters. Relevant to social science researchers working in areas such as urban planning and transport, mobility deprivation, and poverty, this book breaks new ground in quality of life studies in the Singapore and Hong Kong contexts. 001482441 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed October 24, 2023). 001482441 650_6 $$aIsolement social$$zSingapour. 001482441 650_6 $$aSystèmes auto-organisés. 001482441 650_0 $$aMarginality, Social$$zChina$$zHong Kong.$$vFiction$$0(DLC)sh2010100633 001482441 650_0 $$aSocial isolation$$zSingapore.$$0(DLC)sh 85123967 001482441 650_0 $$aSelf-organizing systems.$$vCongresses$$0(DLC)sh2008111493 001482441 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001482441 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9819972647$$z9789819972647$$w(OCoLC)1396974521 001482441 830_0 $$aQuality of life in Asia ;$$vv. 18. 001482441 852__ $$bebk 001482441 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-981-99-7265-4$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001482441 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1482441$$pGLOBAL_SET 001482441 980__ $$aBIB 001482441 980__ $$aEBOOK 001482441 982__ $$aEbook 001482441 983__ $$aOnline 001482441 994__ $$a92$$bISE
