Description
This research addresses the concept of self-organisation, particularly with regard to how it enables and affects adaptability in urban communities. Assemblage theory was applied to synthesise research on adaptability, system dynamics, and self-organisation, and to ultimately identify a range of factors and variables that affect and are affected by self-organisation in urban communities. The developed theory was verified and advanced through case study research of four urban communities that reflected high levels of self-organisation and adaptability.
Impact and interest:
