Introducing “Future Cities: The Path to Sustainable and Creative Transformations”
Places are the face of the future. They represent the attraction pole for humanity, for communities hoping for a better life. They are catalysts for economic development and incubators for new ideas and innovation. However, with the increasing urbanization, they can also be castigated as centers of disease, social unrest, and insecurity if they fail to build communities and address needs within a sustainable creative framework. This requires more innovative transformations. This chapter serves as an introduction for the book’s structure and content and hence should serve as useful guide for exploring the key manifestation of “creative transformations” to embrace novel approaches and grounded technologies in the pursue of a vision for sustainable and resilient cities.
