近年来,城市弹性和弹性城市的概念不仅在环境管理方面,而且在城市规划方面得到了相当大的关注和兴趣。城市恢复力的概念不仅局限于学术话语——它在城市政策文件中越来越普遍。本文考察了荷兰鹿特丹在规划政策领域对城市韧性的认识和理解。鹿特丹在水资源管理方面有着悠久的规划历史。本文特别关注气候变化问题,以及城市规划过程如何考虑或处理气候变化带来的风险。城市评估和准备这些风险或威胁的方式构成了两个主要的分析领域。本文的结论是,弹性思维的证据可以在从跨国到地方各级决策中找到。然而,弹性的概念仍然相当模糊,其重要性在政策官员和政策文件之间可能存在很大差异,有时甚至在同一届政府内。(C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd.版权所有。
The notions of urban resilience and the resilient city have gained considerable attention and interest over recent years, not only in relation to environmental management but also in terms of urban planning. The notion of urban resilience is not just confined to academic discourses - it is increasingly prevalent in urban policy documents. This paper examines awareness and understanding of urban resilience in the planning policy arena in Rotterdam, The Netherlands, where planning has a long history of managing water. Specific attention in the paper is paid to the issue of climate change and how planning processes in the city consider or deal with the risks that it presents. The ways in which the city assesses and prepares for these risks or threats form the two main areas of analysis. The paper concludes that evidence of resilient thinking can be found at all levels of decision-making, ranging from the transnational to local levels. However, the notion of resilience is still quite fuzzy and its significance can vary substantially between policy officials and between policy documents, sometimes even within the same administration.
