Where can cycling lift the common good? Regional political culture and fossil capitalism play a role

Abstract This article contributes to the study of critical velomobilities by exploring an understudied aspect of cycling justice, namely the political and cultural contexts that support cycling as a common good. The common good refers to the advancement of collective rather than individual interests. I analyze whether or not Canadians support cycling as a common good, drawing on a survey conducted by Angus Reid in 2018. My analysis focuses on whether such moral support for cycling varies by region in Canada and the possible role played by the country's deeply regionalized political cultures. These cultures, rooted in diverging histories, competing ideologies and conflicting relations with fossil fuels, may shape this moral support alongside other factors which I control for and explore, such as gender and social class. The article concludes that, beyond the effects of these other factors, divisions between eastern and western political cultures in Canada form a salient context for cycling justice and the assembly of cycling as a common good.

自行车在哪里可以提升公共利益?区域政治文化和化石资本主义发挥作用

摘要 本文通过探索自行车正义的一个未被充分研究的方面,即支持自行车作为一种共同利益的政治和文化背景,为关键速度的研究做出贡献。共同利益是指集体而非个人利益的进步。我根据 Angus Reid 在 2018 年进行的一项调查分析了加拿大人是否支持将自行车作为一项共同利益。我的分析侧重于这种对自行车的道义支持是否因加拿大地区而异,以及该国深度区域化的政治可能发挥的作用文化。这些文化植根于不同的历史、相互竞争的意识形态以及与化石燃料的冲突关系,可能会与我控制和探索的其他因素(例如性别和社会阶层)一起塑造这种道德支持。
