Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. In an era of rapid change and growing uncertainty, we are facing an urgent question: How can cities be built for futures that defy prediction?

Through a range of case studies, they examine relevant aims, strategies, and decision-making processes in both past and present contexts. They reveal how unexpected events and unpredictable factors unsettle established urban conditions but also spark new ideas and possibilities for rethinking and reshaping the city.

Städtische Krisen erfordern ein Handeln, das wohlüberlegt, zielorientiert und fundiert ist, um Lebensbedingungen wirklich verbessern zu können. Die wichtigsten Herausforderungen der Urbanisierung im 21. Jahrhundert werden jedoch durch eine wachsende Kluft zwischen theoretischem Verständnis und praktischem Vorgehen verschärft.Die Beiträge in diesem Buch, verfasst von international renommierten, zum Teil auch jüngeren Wissenschaftlerinnen und Wissenschaftlern, erforschen die Dynamiken, die die aktuellen Stadttheorien und Berufspraktiken prägen. Die Autoren, die aus ihrer umfassenden Erfahrung in Wissenschaft, Politik und Praxis in verschiedenen globalen Kontexten schöpfen, geben reflektiert und persönlich Auskunft darüber, wie Stadtforscher Theorien sinnvoll nutzen können.…
