Beyond Resilience

<div> <div> <div> <div> <p><span><b>The focus of this book has been concentrated on a criticism of thecurrent resilience strategies: how adapting an anachronistic model simply perpetuates its obsolescence, and despite generating temporaryimprovements, it does not offer us in its reformist vision a real solution tothe problems that we will have to face.</b><br><br></span></p> <p><span>The focus of this book has been concentrated on current resilience strategies,a useful concept to understand and act in a complex, global world with signsof imbalances in the urban models that came from the past, but that hasbecome a wildcard easy to use.<br></span><span><br>The increasing impossibility of encrypting the term resilience, ofapproaching it from more reliable scientific principles, leads us to aconceptual drift that this book echoes. Far from understanding andpreparing for a system change, resilient thinking is presented on manyoccasions as a survival table that facilitates the permanence of the establishedmodel, promoting small strategic modifications to a trust in a system that isincreasingly compromised. </span></p> </div> </div> </div> </div>
