Summary:
Traditional archivism runs the risk of perpetuating hegemonic ways of thinking by anticipating what will be of importance in the future through the framework of present-day realities and power structures. These genre-busting ruminations gather new methods for designing views of potential worlds and forms of archival activism.

Summary:
In Planning Asian Cities: Risks and Resilience, Stephen Hamnett and Dean Forbes explore the planning history and recent development of Pacific Asia’s major cities. They show how globalization, and the competition to achieve global city status, has had a profound effect on all these cities. But how resilient are these cities to the risks that they face? How can they manage continuing pressures for development and growth while reducing their vulnerability to a range of potential crises? How well prepared are they for climate change? How can they build social capital, so important to a city’s recovery from shocks and disasters? What forms of governance and planning are appropriate for the vast mega-regions that are emerging? And, given the tradition of top-down, centralized, state-directed planning which drove the economic growth of many of these cities in the last century, what prospects are there of them becoming more inclusive and sensitive to the diverse needs of their populations and to the importance of culture, heritage and local places in creating liveable cities?
