New book asks 'what is good cycling?'


PERU’s Cosmin Popan is co-editor of a new book on ‘Cycling Societies Innovations, Inequalities and Governance’ published by Routledge.  The book examines emerging debates and questions around cycling to critically analyse and challenge dominant framings and prevalent conventions of ‘good cycling’.
Cosmin is a Leverhulme Postdoctoral Fellow whose project, ‘Doing gig work: Social implications of platform-based food deliveries‘ (2020-2023), investigates the gig economy and its reconfiguration of urban spaces. His research focuses on the management, solidarity and resistance of cycle couriers in three European cities: Manchester, Lyon (France) and Cluj-Napoca (Romania).
