Zusammenfassung:""Cities are dynamic places. While they are full of permanent structures that change-the building teardown replaced by another building-cities also house spaces that have no intention of permanence, what Lauren Andres refers to as temporary urbanism. Adaptable Cities and the Future of Temporary Urbanisms examines how adaptability has been deployed globally in recent history leading to very distinct but complementary forms of temporary urbanisms. Andres draws on international examples in Europe, south and east Africa, Lebanon, Brazil, and the United States to develop a sense of how temporariness and adaptability are deployed in research, policy and practice. She also takes into consideration the COVID-19 pandemic, its effect on cities, and how cities will be reshaped in its aftermath. For Andres, temporary strategies should become common and more frequently used as planned as urban practices because their malleable and innovative mechanisms are based on improvised and innovative thinking. However, she finds that standardization remains the dominant mode of urban planning and will have negative consequences; as governments co-opts the temporary it can drive further inequity.""--
