Resumen
Resilience thinking has become a core issue in urban planning and development. This has been based on the increasing impacts of modernization and its ecological, socio-cultural, and economic consequences, especially in post-industrial cities. This chapter will focus on urban resilience, and more specifically resilience to climate change. By doing so, the paper aims to stress the conditions of post-industrial cities as regard with resilience to climate change, considering that these cities are somehow specific contexts in respect with exposure, vulnerability and (adaptive) capacity. The chapter compares some current limitations of urban resilience-linked strategies adopted in two European post-industrial cities, i.e. Liege (Belgium) and Oulu (Finland). The conclusions will outline some possible avenues for research on resilience to climate change in post-industrial cities.
