This innovative book explores the foundations of the smart city
and, through a critique of its challenges and concerns, showcases
how to redefine the concept for increased sustainability,
liveability and resilience in urban areas. It undertakes a review
of the smart city concept, providing a new perspective on how
technology-based urban solutions must be centred around human
dimensions to render more liveable urban fabrics. Chapters
highlight how existing digital infrastructures can be coupled with
emerging ones, so that they can provide increased efficiency and
performance, with an ultimate objective of rendering safer, more
sustainable, resilient and inclusive cities, aligning with the
needs of the SDGs. The book also covers emerging technologies and
concepts, such as 6G and the '15-minute city', underlining how
these can develop within smart city frameworks. This is an
invigorating look into the concept of the smart city and how it can
be improved and rethought, making it useful for urban studies and
human geography academics and researchers. It also offers helpful
insights for policy makers and planners on how to increase the
quality of life in modern cities.
