About the Editor
KIMBERLY ETINGOFF
Kim Etingoff has a master’s degree in urban and environmental policy and
planning from Tufts University. Her recent experience includes research-
ing a report on food resiliency within the city of Boston with Initiative for
a Competitive Inner City. She worked in partnership with Dudley Street
Neighborhood Initiative and Alternatives for Community and Environ-
ment to support a community food-planning process based in a Boston
neighborhood, which was oriented toward creating a vehicle for commu-
nity action around urban food issues, providing extensive background re-
search to ground the resident-led planning process. She has worked in the
Boston Mayor’s Office of New Urban Mechanics, and has also coordinat-
ed and developed programs in urban agriculture and nutrition education.
In addition, she has many years of experience researching, writing, and ed-
iting educational and academic books on environmental and food issues.

was carefully selected by the editor; the result is a book that looks at eco-
logical resilience from a variety of perspectives. The chapters included are
broken into four sections, which describe the following topics:
• The authors of Chapter 1 introduce an evaluative model connecting various
policy scenarios to resilience outcomes in urban areas, in terms of human
activity and environmental effects.
• Chapter 2 seeks to understand the complexity of creating sustainable and
resilient cities by incorporating vulnerability and transition theory into re-
silience theory.
• In order to translate abstract concepts of resilience into practical applica-
tions, the authors of Chapter 3 identify multiple attributes that promote sys-
tem resilience and help practitioners assess the current and potential resil-
ience of relevant systems.
• Chapter 4 understands community action as a key component of achiev-
ing sustainable and resilient development, and identifies the ways in which
community vitality supports resilience using research conducted in thirty-
five Canadian communities.
• The author of Chapter 5 uses the case study of the Danungdafu Foresta-
tion Area in Taiwan to explore the capacities and challenges of managing
resilience across multiple scales and levels within governance systems, and
concludes that more participatory and just governance is needed to achieve
greater resilience.
• Chapter 6 introduces the concept of a Dismantable City as a way to make
urban areas more adaptable and resilient in the face of climate change ef-
fects. It specifically lays out ways that cities can adjust in terms of multi-
layer urbanism, light urbanism, and transformable urbanism.
• The authors of Chapter 7 suggest that because of the complexity of urban
areas and the uncertainties involved in hazard evaluation, practitioners and
researchers should first conduct uncertainty analyses of urban systems.
