The Structural Transformation of the Public Sphere: An Inquiry into a Category of Bourgeois Society

On robust estimation of the location parameter

This paper argues for a political economic approach to understanding climate change adaptation and development planning in an urban context. Based on field research conducted in Surat, India, across a period of two years, I illustrate how climate adaptation is rooted in preexisting and contextually specific urban political relationships that can be traced through the city's developmental history. Through assessing Surat's experience with recent industrialization, episodes of natural disasters, to more recent engagement with the Asian Cities Climate Change Resilience Network, I highlight how adaptation planning, as well as how adaptation is integrated into urban development planning, occurs through processes of prioritizing adaptation against development needs and implementing options that are cocreated among public and civic actors. This case empirically shows how adaptation is mainstreamed into urban development planning, illustrates the trade-offs associated with how different urban actors plan and implement adaptation in the context of rapid industrialization, and assesses how internationally funded adaptation programs are operationalized in the context of local social and political realities.

Urban climate adaptation and the reshaping of state–society relations: The politics of community knowledge and mobilisation in Indore, India

In order to increase adaptive capacity and empower people to cope with their changing environment, it is imperative to develop decision-support tools that help people understand and respond to challenges and opportunities. Some such tools have emerged in response to social and economic shifts in light of anticipated climatic change. Climate change will play out at the local level, and adaptive behaviours will be influenced by local resources and knowledge. Community-based insights are essential building blocks for effective planning. However, in order to mainstream and scale up adaptation, it is useful to have mechanisms for evaluating the benefits and costs of candidate adaptation strategies. This article reviews relevant literature and presents an argument in favour of using various modelling tools directed at these considerations. The authors also provide evidence for the balancing of qualitative and quantitative elements in assessments of programme proposals considered for financing through mechanisms...

A review of decision-support models for adaptation to climate change in the context of development

From the necessary and sufficient conditions for complete reachability and observability of periodic descriptor systems with time-varying dimensions, the symmetric positive semidefinite reachability/observability Gramians are defined. These Gramians can be shown to satisfy some projected generalized discrete-time periodic Lyapunov equations. We propose a numerical method for solving these projected Lyapunov equations, and give an illustrative numerical example. As an application of our results, the balanced realization of periodic descriptor systems is discussed.
