Title Incorporating a Systemic and Foresight Approach into Smart City Initiatives: The Case of Spanish Cities
Year 2016
Published Journal Of Urban Technology, 23, 3
Abstract At the dawn of the twenty-first century, cities face serious societal, economic, environmental, and governance challenges. Under the term Smart City, numerous technology-based initiatives are emerging to help cities face contemporary challenges while the concept itself is evolving towards a more holistic approach. Nevertheless, the capability of smart initiatives to provide an integrated vision of our cities is still very limited. Eventually, many of these initiatives do not fulfill satisfactorily their initial objectives because they fail to understand the complexity, diversity, and uncertainty that characterize contemporary cities. The purpose of this paper is twofold: to display an urban functional system, capable of interpreting the city in a more holistic way, and to incorporate foresight tools so as to formulate Smart City visions in a more participatory way with the involvement of local stakeholders.
