ABSTRACT
No Bus, No Bicycle, No Job has analyzed how workers’ mobility and job accessibility changed over time, and how blue-collar workers, employers, and the government have shaped this change throughout the twentieth century in the Netherlands. By closely examining workers’ past mobility options and barriers in different periods, this book has shown that factors considered key in contributing to mobility poverty today are of all times, and have been addressed by various actors in the past, including workers and employers—unrecognized forces in historiography.
