Cities in crisischallenges for disaster management /[electronic resource] :by Stanisław Kowalkowski, Marek Wrzosek, Danuta Kaźmierczak. - Cham :Springer Nature Switzerland :2025. - xxiii, 169 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm.

Chapter 1: City - a highly complex ecosystem to live (operate) in -- Chapter 2: Infrastructure - a critical element of city ecosystem/landscape -- Chapter 3: Urban warfare dimensions -- Chapter 4: Disaster risk management for future conflicts and crises -- Chapter 5: Education and training - design thinking for DRM.

This book explores the complexity of cities as sites of warfare and investigates the ever-growing challenges for Disaster Risk Management (DRM). Through analysis of existing literature, media coverage and in-depth case studies, this title investigates the vulnerabilities of growing cities, the consequences citizens face in crises, and the effectiveness of DRM systems. By depicting the serious global security problems that test systems of culture, governance, war and peace practices, this book encourages discussion around the present and future condition of cities. The volume investigates the impacts of urban warfare and argues for the implementation of effective DRM systems that are based on understanding of disaster risk in all its dimensions, achieved through well-designed training programs employing the latest teaching-learning theories and agile methodologies. Stanisław Kowalkowski is professor at War Studies University, Warsaw, Poland. He is the author and co-author of 230 different scientific studies, including 'Determinants and possibilities of counteracting the use of improvised explosive devices'; and has participated in 12 development projects, including project dedicated to 'Improving the Safety and Protection of Soldiers on Missions Through Research and Development in Military Medical and Technical Areas'. Marek Wrzosek is professor at War Studies University, Warsaw, Poland. His military, research and teaching career develops in the scope of military reconnaissance systems, information systems and particularly military and non-military threats assessment. He published numerous theoretical and practical works, participated in the international research projects. His most important works include Military threats to Poland after the Russian's invasion of Ukraine; Future wars; Doctrines, tactics, military operations. Danuta Kaźmierczak is associate professor at University of The National Education Commission, Krakow, Poland. Her scope of research includes security studies including human security, education management, disaster risk management. She participated in international projects on security and safety, and disaster risk management.
