A sociological perspective at car customers and automobile data by

Alfred Fuhr, M.A. Fuhrwerk, Bureau für Kundensoziologie der automobilen Gesellschaft

Frankfurt am Main

Alfred Fuhr M.A. Founder & Head of AvD Institute for Traffic Sociology

Frankfurt /Main, Germany

1998-2010

About me:

The paradoxes of automobility: The user of an automobile is not really auto-mobile …

The role of Media: How TV has created a new form of automobility in Germany which has nothing to do with moving from A to B

ROI of consumer-oriented sociological research

Studies, statistics & evaluations ̶ Analyses of driving and in-car behaviour

Restructuring motives: The Automobile Habitus ̶ General concept of automobile habitus

Strategies for understanding & developing drivers as customers ̶ Bundles of motives, differentiated needs and wants

• Origin: French sociologist Pierre Bourdieu’s theory of social research of taste and about the marriage strategies of peasants in France

• Description: It combines the objective study of the world with a reflexive knowledge of the specific subject(s) of the study
