T2M Yearbook 2013:

Peter Norton, Gijs Mom, Liz Millward, Tomás Errázuriz and Mathieu Flonneau (eds.):

Mobility in History.
With volume 4 the T2M Yearbook has graduated from its initial three-year experimental phase. We can now speak of our Yearbook’s history and its traditions—among them relentless pursuit of historiographical reviews about mobility scholarship in countries that too often escape attention elsewhere, unusual thematic reviews that offer new perspectives on historical mobility studies, and more personal, retrospective assessments of the contributions of leading scholars and classic works. The 17 peer reviewed articles in this year’s Yearbook are faithful to these traditions.

T2M Yearbook 2012:

Peter Norton, Gijs Mom, Liz Millward and Mathieu Flonneau (eds.):

Mobility in Hstory. Reviews and Reflections.
The present volume includes articles reviewing scholarship from four countries not represented in previous Yearbooks (Colombia, France, Portugal and Sweden) and a new thematic article (on car sounds). Following a precedent established last year, this volume offers readers a close reflection on a classic study in mobility history, Wolfgang Schivelbusch’s The Railway Journey (1977). Readers can also get an inside look at the state of the art of mobility history from the unique perspective of one of its central figures, Gijs Mom.

Gijs Mom / (eds):

Mobility in History. Themes in Transport.
In its second Yearbook, the International Association for the History of Transport, Traffic and Mobility (T2M) has brought together 28 scholars from eleven countries on four continents to review recent scholarship on mobility in history.
Besides reviews of research in diverse countries, this edition brings attention to underserved subdisciplines and topics, such as gender and mobility, maritime history, aeromobility, carpooling, and bicycles. This year, the Yearbook also features a retrospective review of John McKay’s classic Tramways and Trolleys (1976) in a section that includes an interview with the author and a collection of historical review essays on trams in five countries. True to T2M’s interdisciplinary spirit, the review essays go beyond transportation modes and artifacts to include the broader social systems in which mobility figures.

Gijs Mom / Gordon Pirie / Laurent Tissot (eds):

Mobility in History. The State of the Art in the History of Transport, Traffic and Mobility

For decades scholars in diverse fields have examined problems in the history of mobility. Their diversity was their strength but also their limitation, as disciplinary boundaries impeded the exchange of ideas that lets scholarship flourish. Since 2003 the International Association for the History of Traffic, Transport and Mobility (T2M) has served as a free-trade zone, fostering a new interdisciplinary vitality in a now-flourishing field. Now, with the publication of its first yearbook, T2M has surveyed these gains in the form of a comprehensive state-of-the-art review of research in the field. Here, twenty-seven scholars in the history of mobility, from sixteen countries and five continents, present synopses of recent research. Besides reviews of research in thirteen countries, contributions also include thematic reviews relating mobility to the environment, automobile fetishism, race, gender, and other transnational themes. All in all, more than sixty scholars within and beyond T2M cooperated in this project, making it a truly collective work.
