Given the increasing uncertainty due to catastrophic climate
events, terrorist attacks, and economic crises, this book addresses
planning for resilience by focusing on sharing knowledge among
policy-makers, urban planners, emergency teams and citizens.
Chapters look at the nature of contemporary risks, the widespread
of resilience thinking and the gap between the theoretical
conception and the practices. The book explores how resilience
implies a change in planning practices, highlighting the need for
flexibility in terms of procedures, and for dynamism in the
knowledge systems and learning processes that are the main tools
for interaction among different actors and scales. Given its
breadth of coverage, the book offers a valuable resource for both
academic readers (spatial planners, geographers, social scientists)
and practitioners (policymakers, citizens' associations).
