Catching on “Urban Resilience” and Examining “Urban Resilience Planning”
Abstract
21st century is an era which environmental and urban systems triggered complexity and eventually urban planning processes started to be chaotic. Hence, 2000s can be described as a period in which complexity science developed and the capacity for planning and management needed to be improved to solve the rapidly changing urban problems. The main concern is finding out a principal contribution to urban planning processes to address this complexity dilemma and urban vulnerabilities. Since planning the future of an entire community may seem like a devastating challenge based on these challenges, urban planning should comprise conscious choices about the future and it has to be a rational way for getting prepared for the future. In this regard, “continual development and adjustment to the changing circumstances” is surely vital for all urban systems. This is parallel with resilience concept, which refers to understand addressing the uncertain changes and challenges. From this point of view, this paper aimed to clarify how resilience can be positioned in urban planning paradigms. In depth literature review and qualitative analysis were the base. Moreover, the development of urban planning paradigms from 1950s to today and the content of urban resilience were analyzed in details.
