It looks at historic second-tier cities like Nashik, Bhopal, Kolkata, and Agra, which are laboratories of smart experiments and are subject to technological ubiquity, with rampant deployment of smart technologies and dashboard governance. Th examines the traditional values and systems of these cities that have proven to be resilient and studies how they can be adapted to contemporary times. It also highlights the vulnerabilities posed by current urban development models in these cities and presents best practices that could provide leads to address impending climate risks. Th also offers a unique Resilience Index that can drive change in the way cities are imagined and administered, customized to specific needs at various scales of application. Part of the Urban Futures series, the volume is an important contribution to the growing scholarship of Southern urbanism and will be of interest to researchers and students of urban studies, urban ecology, urban sociology, architecture, geography, urban planning, and climate change"--
