Synopsis

Designed for decision-makers facing uncertainty, this book shows how infrastructures can absorb shocks, adapt, and generate long-term value rather than merely enduring disruption. By linking real-world cases with forward-looking analysis, it helps transform technological change, sustainability pressures, and globalization into sources of renewal. 

Its distinctive contribution lies in an integrated view of resilience that examines physical systems alongside financial, educational, and governance structures. Through empirical and cross-country studies, the book presents resilience as a continuous, design-driven process shaped by digitalization, artificial intelligence, sustainability, ethical governance, and human participation.

Covering policy, regional development, and organizational practice across the European Union and neighboring regions, the book is aimed at policymakers, practitioners, scholars, and advanced students. It serves as a resource for policy design, institutional reform, teaching, and applied research on sustainable and resilient development.
