This book examines the practice of urban resilience past and present, drawing on deeper global historical sources and detailed case-studies of contemporary Britain. It argues that resilience is neither new nor necessarily about protecting ordinary people, but part of a long struggle over the control of cities.
This book focuses on the historical and contemporary responses of urban authorities to disaster and terrorism and what this means for citizens and society.
