Smart Cities or Fragile Systems?

from The Inheritance · host Open Book

Cities built our future. Now they may decide whether we have one. In this sharp, unsettling exploration, Raj Shekhar reveals the paradox of urbanisation—engines of growth and innovation that are also dangerously fragile. As climate stress intensifies, the real question is no longer how cities grow, but who shapes them—and at what cost.
