Terrorism, Risk and the Global City: Towards Urban Resilience By Jon Coaffee

The book on which this volume is based, Terrorism, Risk and the City, was published in 2003 at a time when London, along with many other global cities, was coming to terms with the expanded threat of international terrorism and were reappraising their counter-terrorism measures accordingly. The original book offered both a historical and a contemporary account of the physical, financial and managerial measures utilised in the financial cores of London, ranging between the years 1992-2002, to reduce the risk of terrorist attack. In addition Terrorism, Risk and the City incorporated the initial changes in urban securitisation stimulated by the events on September 11 2001 (henceforth 9/11). The reaction to Terrorism, Risk and the City exceeded expectations, receiving positive reviews from both the academic and professional security press. This was partly a function of timing as well as being a relatively uncontested field of inquiry. Since 9/11 this area of research has expanded significantly with many accounts being written regarding the impact, urban or otherwise, of the so-called ‘War on Terror’ on the functioning of cities, societies and states. Many of these accounts draw upon material from Terrorism, Risk and the City in their own analysis. Many commentators have also contacted me requesting an updated version of this book. As with all rapidly moving fields of policy inquiry, research material dates rapidly as new data comes to light, as political priorities change and as academic critique in the field develops.
