Systemic analysis and a historical approach, integrating the teachings of the last two centuries, constitute at the methodological level the framework in which this dialog unfolds. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Based on examples of good practice, Transport and Town Planning identifies an effective set of levers of action and proposes an original method to guide and accompany urban transition with a large share of the initiative reserved for the actors concerned. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJean Laterrasse\u003c\/b\u003e worked for 15 years as a Professor at Paris Est University in France, where he directed the \"Ville mobilité transport\" laboratory and a Master’s program for engineers and urban planners.
