Textul de pe ultima copertă
This timely treatise introduces an innovative prevention/preparedness model for cities to address and counter terrorist threats and events. It offers theoretical background, mixed-method research, and tools for creating a resilience-based response to terrorism, as opposed to the security-based frameworks commonly in use worldwide. The extended example of Milan as a “resilient-healthy” city pinpoints sociological, political, and economic factors that contribute to terror risk, and outlines how law enforcement and emergency management professionals can adopt more proactive measures. From these observations and findings, the author also makes recommendations for the professional training and city planning sectors to address preparedness issues, and for community inclusion programs to deter criminal activities in at-risk youth.

Caracteristici
Using an ethnographic approach, this book shows the importance of social perceptions, the role of culture -- whether it be ethnical or organizational, and the professional interpretations of urban and social vulnerabilities, public resilience, and safety and security from various points of view Takes readers on a journey through the traces and signs of the other side of resilience, showing the importance of change and considering resilience as a social competence that can influence communicative and operative practices in cases of crisis or disaster Presents two compelling theoretical and methodological models to enhance public resilience related to public health and its assessment of terrorism threats, and to better understand the role of intercultural and crosscultural resilience among migrants and experts within a risk context Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
