The everyday resilience of the cityhow cities respond to terrorismand disaster /[electronic resource] :Jon Coaffee, David Murakami Wood and Peter Rogers. - Basingstoke [England] ;Palgrave Macmillan,2009. - xi, 330 p. :ill., maps ;23 cm. - New security challenges series.

Includes bibliographical references (p. 271-304) and index.

The vulnerable city in history -- Resilience and social control in the city -- The threat of total devastation -- Controlling the risky city -- The intensification of control : towards urban resilience -- States of protection and emergency : the rise of resilience -- The UK national response -- The UK regional response -- Local resilience planning --Urban resilience and everyday life -- Security is coming home.

In a time classed breathlessly as the age of terror, when emergency has become normal, statesare trying to find ways to make them cities less vulnerable and to build in resilience. 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 will make fascinating reading for all those concerned with the future of nations in whicharguments for liberty appear to be losing out to the demands of security and surveillance, of cities in a world becoming more urban and more multicultural, and of communities in which we are all expected to be watching each other for signs of terrorism.
