Dataset for: Beyond the Tailpipe: A Critical Literature Review of the Socio-Technical, Material, and Political Boundaries of Net Zero Transport

This dataset contains the search protocols, screening data, and the data extraction/synthesis matrix used for the systematic literature review titled "Beyond the Tailpipe: A Systematic Literature Review of the Socio-Technical, Material, and Political Boundaries of Net Zero Transport."

The review adopts a socio-technical epistemological stance to evaluate the transition to net zero transport across four interconnected domains:

1. Ontological Boundaries and Framing
2. Material Constraints and Life-Cycle Realities
3. Institutional Structures and Corporate Adaptation
4. Societal Outcomes and Eco-Social Equity.

The dataset includes the exact search strings used in the Web of Science (WoS) and Scopus databases, the PRISMA-aligned screening funnel data (tracking the reduction from 2,515 initial records to 81 final included studies), and the comprehensive synthesis matrix detailing the rationale and thematic coding for the final corpus of literature.
