Hybrid Smartness: Seeking a Balance Between Top-Down and Bottom-Up Smart City Approaches
The idea of smart citiesSmart City has been the subject of a range of views in recent years. A review of the terms and concepts around the “smart city” reveals three distinct ways of making urban development “smart”: a techno-centric approach (top-down), a social-centric approach (bottom-up), and a socio-technical approach (in-between). While each direction is significant in its own way, we argue that it is crucial to support an alternative, integrated idea of the smart city through “hybrid smartness.” In this new approach to smart citiesSmart City, both top-down and bottom-up smart ideas are balanced, and recognized. It is the interweaving of both ideas that ensures an urban development model that promotes equity and sustainability. This hybrid thinking approach can thus inform the wider planning discourse that is usually trapped between top-down and bottom-up extremes.
