This volume explores the governance patterns of three cities of the Americas, Seattle, Montreal, and Curitiba, which all presentdifferent but interesting casesin dealing with sustainable urban transport challenges. The authors study empiricaldata from these three cities to analyze how specific governmental and policy instruments (planning, consultation and market mechanisms for example) wereimplemented in each case. Through concepts coming from policy studies andsociology, for example,such as path dependency, institutional cultureand transaction costs, the three cities are also looked at in a broader perspective in order to better understand how they deal differently with their common challenges.
