Summary of the article titled How the car transformed society in the 20th century from 2020 by James Arbib and Tony Seba, in Rethinking Humanity – Five foundational sector disruption, the lifecycle of civilizations and the coming age of freedom, from the RethinkXTeam.  Since we are investigating the future of cities, I though it would interesting be to see how the car has changed and been changing cities, as it is said to be one of the biggest problems for current urban environments. This article explores how and to what extent the car and the auto industry have changed our society since their infancy, and what were the moving forces.
