Klappentext
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.
