TY - JOUR AB - Resilience is a new buzzword in national and European security research. The concept, which originates from a wide range of research contexts, promises answers to various security problems. The idea is that resilience plays a part in minimising risks and threats, and limiting, and ideally preventing, damage events (cf. Floeting 2013a, 19). In the specific context of cities, urban resilience means the creation of resistant structures that are also sufficiently flexible to be able to cope with unexpected events. The development of urban resilience follows approaches and strategies that have been discussed and increasingly implemented for many years in the field of crime prevention through urban planning. The question is, however, to what extent crime prevention through urban planning can benefit from the discourse about urban resilience and whether a resilience perspective can provide the basis for a new paradigm of crime prevention through urban planning. Urban resilience can be understood as an extension of crime prevention in a risk society. It can be seen, however, that the concept can only be considered promising with regard to crime prevention through urban planning, if questions of security are addressed not only in terms of construction and technology, but also their social context.
