| Sumari: | The authors of this monograph delve into an analysis of the impacts and consequences of diverse crises on cities, exploring the responses and adaptive mechanisms crucial for navigating challenges and fostering development, even in crisis conditions. The publication specifically addresses such issues as the spatial ramifications of the COVID-19 pandemic (e.g. effects on urban spatial policies, the informational layer of cities, resident behaviour, and the informal labour market), cities’ strategies in addressing the climate crisis (e.g. urban agriculture, the creation of green urban spaces), contemporary concepts of city development aimed at enhancing the quality of life (e.g. functional mix, walkable city, New Urbanism), and crises from a regional perspective (e.g. flood threats). The authors present diverse viewpoints and employ various research methods, exploring cities in Europe and the Americas to highlight both differences and universal challenges. |
