    Abstract The role of Cities in driving global economies has been well covered, and their impact on the larger ecosystem is well documented. Resilient and Sustainable Cities: Research, Policy and Practice explores how cities can be transformed into sustainable fabrics, while leading to positive socio-economic change. The topics include urban policy and covers the challenges cities experienced during the pandemic and resulting urban responses from federal, state, and local levels. This includes a transdisciplinary perspective dwelling on the city narrative, including Resources, Economics, Politics, and others. Resilient and Sustainable Cities serves as a valuable resource for leaders and practitioners working in Urban Policy and academia, as well as students in urban planning, architecture, and policy undergraduate and graduate level programs.

    Abstract As the Blockchain technology is gaining momentum in popular culture through Cryptocurrencies, its full implication and application to businesses, on a concrete and factual level, is still seen to be in its infancy stage. While the technology provides numerous advantages regarding stability, trust, speed and others, the robustness of the technology is not widely disseminated. This is further coupled by the common notion of resistance to change in business management processes. This paper explores the concept of Smart Contracts through the blockchain technology and its relevance to the business sector and further outlines the advantages and limitations of its applicability as of date.

    Abstract The COVID-19 pandemic saw disruptions at an unprecedented global scale with deep societal impacts in cities, countries, and regions Moreover, in a time of global urgent need for personal protective equipment, ventilators, and other health appliances and gear, both air and sea transport were halted, disconnecting manufacturing nations with consumer nations With steep rise in demand, and impacted supply chains, nations, which were previously hailing collaborative calls to fight the pandemic, were seen to enter into a trade war of health equipment With borders closed, nationalist policies were on the rise coupled with fears of tech-powered surveillance states On the commodities market, the price of oil crashed leading to uncertainties as to the future for oil producing nations as the end point of the pandemic was still unclear Altogether, the pandemic put on test not only economic structures but also geopolitical ones, where it is seen as the biggest challenge since World War II This chapter surveys the impacts of the pandemic on the global political landscape and outlines concerns and questions for sustaining a peaceful shared future

    Abstract As the spread of COVID-19 continues from the initial epicenter in China, to new epicenters in the west, and North America, entire world is seen to be pulling on the same direction, especially in instituting measures that would not only help in containing the pandemic but also shield economies from the eminent crisis One such measure that is being duplicated in almost every country is that of “lockdowns ” This is having a direct impact on the social and economic welfare of people, especially those domiciled in urban areas, but with the virus spreading in unprecedented way, it is seen as one of the necessary measures for now As this happens, the global community is seen to be increasing its efforts and collaboration in coming up with a short-term and long-term solution to this pandemic However, such efforts are facing some deep-rooted challenges related to heath data sharing, where the issue of lack of standardization of protocols is seen to be hampering the efforts, especially with interests from information and communication technology corporationsn and the concept of nationalism coming into play This chapter, written during the period when the world continues to grapple with the issues pertaining to the pandemic, surveys the virus outbreak from an urban viewpoint and advances how smart city concept can be customized to ensure there is seamless communication in regard to data sharing especially during event of outbreaks or other such calamities
