| Resumen: |
Este volumen editado ofrece una nueva perspectiva sobre la relación importante, aunque a menudo descuidada, entre la justicia ambiental y la resiliencia urbana. Muchos académicos han argumentado que las ciudades resilientes son ciudades más justas. Pero ¿qué pasa si el proceso de aumentar la resiliencia de la ciudad en su conjunto ocurre a expensas de los derechos de ciertos grupos? Si la resiliencia urbana se centra en el grado en que las ciudades son capaces de reorganizarse de manera creativa y adaptarse a las crisis, ¿las desigualdades generalizadas en el acceso a los servicios ambientales tienen un efecto sobre esta capacidad? Este libro reúne a un grupo interdisciplinario e intergeneracional de académicos para examinar las contradicciones y tensiones que se desarrollan en las ciudades del Sur Global a través de una serie de estudios de caso empÃricamente fundamentados que abarcan ciudades de Asia, América Latina, Ãfrica y Europa del Este. |

| Summary : |
This edited volume provides a fresh perspective on the important yet often neglected relationship between environmental justice and urban resilience. Many scholars have argued that resilient cities are more just cities. But what if the process of increasing the resilience of the city as a whole happens at the expense of the rights of certain groups? If urban resilience focuses on the degree to which cities are able to reorganise in creative ways and adapt to shocks, do pervasive inequalities in access to environmental services have an effect on this ability? This book brings together an interdisciplinary and intergeneration group of scholars to examine the contradictions and tensions that develop as they play out in cities of the Global South through a series of empirically grounded case studies spanning cities of Asia, Latin America, Africa and Eastern Europe. |
