Territorial intelligence of vulnerability systems -A transitional viewpoint of sustainable development
Résumé
The use of vulnerability as a main concept, especially as an essential component of risk has been generalized from a decade or so. Together with resilience properties of human structures, it therefore constitutes the principal entry for crossing environmental and social sustainability factors, mostly apprehended from environmental harmfulness and risk perspectives, as shown in the related works in environmental psychology. The vulnerability of a system depends on the state of the system itself, on the capacity of a hazard to affect this state taking into account the exposure, the sensitivity and the adaptive capacity of the system to this event and on the undesired consequences the combination of the hazard and the vulnerability will eventually lead to.
