Places which seem similar can respond very differently, and with varying degrees of success, to external threats and to the interventions designed to manage them. In this ... work, drawing on decades of research, Sandra Wallman explores how we can measure and compare the resilience of communities, looking in detail at neighbourhoods in London, Rome and Zambia. Each locale is examined as a system which is more or less open or closed; open systems tend to be more resilient when faced with external challenges. As well as being a fascinating study in its own right, the book includes detailed accounts of the research methods used, as well as a user-friendly typology for classifying local systems, making it an invaluable tool for students, researchers and policy-makers."--Publisher's website. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Ethnology|xResearch. 650 0 Communities|xResearch. 650 0 Community development. 655 4 Electronic books. 700 1 Bond, Virginia|q(Virginia Anne) 700 1 Montouri, Maria Alessia. 700 1 Vidali, Mai. 700 1 Lo Conte, Rossella. 776 08 |iPrint version:|aWallman, Sandra.|tCapability of places. |dLondon : Pluto Press ; New York : Palgrave Macmillan [exclusive U.S.A. distributor], 2011|z9780745331454 |w(OCoLC)721884008 830 0 Anthropology, culture, and society. 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=434967|zOnline eBook.
