This book explores the effects of covid-19 crisis on cities and
urban areas and proposes approaches and solutions to invert the
pandemic's negative impact. The covid-19 crisis has had significant
impacts on public health, on the everyday lives of millions of
people, and on the use of urban spaces at all levels. All over the
world, cities have been at the forefront of a crisis that have
worsened socio-spatial inequalities between regions and inside
urban areas. The book examines three aspects of the connection
between pandemic and urban issues: the relevance of spatial and
territorial variables in the explanation of pandemic dynamics and
consequences in fragile cities; the assumption of radical
uncertainty as the conceptual framework for a new approach to urban
planning, in a phase of raise of public investments; and the design
of urban policies aimed at facing the material and symbolic effects
of pandemic on the practices of use of spaces and places, in a
context characterized by a plurality of populations and forms of
life.
