- With fantastic new maps that show interactive, visual representations of urban fragility, Robert Muggah articulates an ancient but resurging idea: cities shouldn't just be the center of economics -- they should also be the foundation of our political lives. Looking around the world, from Syria to Singapore to Seoul and beyond, Muggah submits six principles for how we can build more resilient cities. "Cities are where the future happens first. They're open, creative, dynamic, democratic, cosmopolitan, sexy," Muggah says. "They're the perfect antidote to reactionary nationalism."

você deveria ter visto antes de ter clicado próximo no clipping de geografia, enfim tamo aqui
enfim, meia noite e dois e eu aqui kkkkk
Complicado Enzo
foda...
Deveras né, mas por acaso você tem algum palpite sobre o desafio de geografia?
Tá, mas em qual minuto fala da questão 2?
Great TED Talk for those interested in the future of cities and how to do it better and greener. :D
Wonderful vision! A world comprised not of countries, but of cities - large, hi-tech, metropolises.
Great one, inspiring
Nice clear voice.
Is that a screenshot from Simcity 4 in the background?
Can you guys export some of your city planners over here to Indonesia? We don't have very much money, but our cities in Java and Sumatra need a massive remodel and there isn't enough good human resource to plan out the stuff...
MUMBAI (20 Million) & DELHI (15 Million) are top two urban agglomerations in INDIA........vibrant, thriving & bustling economies of their own.......also have their own distinctive infrastructure, social & health challenges............awesome and thought provoking talk....MANY THANKS
Dank Boi
He did say about distinctive infrastructure, social and health challenges. It was not exactly a chest thumping. Didn't you read?
If you think Indians are uncivilized as a whole, I don't know if you are one, but I am sure that you are pretty ignorant.
Check out the sexy circular cities put out by The Auravana Project. What about moneyless cities?
So to build a bike lane and buy a bike you need more money than to build a road and buy a car?
Fantastic public speaker who did a good job explaining the connections between climate change and migration. We can think of the migration crisis as an extension of the climate crisis for sure. I would have liked for him to point out why cities are punching below politically and how we can change that.
i have hope in this level too! but there are also small dictators in some majors. and what about rural representation? ...
My research is free, free in cost and free to the thinking minds ... & I'm in the beginning stages...
That awkward moment when the Ted talk turns into a advertising pitch.
Interesting talk. With big cultural, political and economical differences between urban and rural areas, it makes sense that cities should have the right to act independently. Lumping everyone under a nation-state according to geographical location just slows all progress, because all time is spent on arguing over the differences.
inspiring! great Ted Talk!
Running a city is similar to running a company; much tougher and less for profit.
Thought it said Robert Mugabe first haha
Stuart Frizelle lol
Well they did appoint him in the UN along with Saudi Arabia for human rights and women's rights.
Never knew that 75%citizens in my city Seoul commute by Public transit! nevertheless roads are full of cars and why I always face congestions?
Um cara que sai do Canadá pra morar no Brasil não é nada menos que um completo maluco.

00:12 Cities are crucial for our survival and future, but also have a dark side.
02:28 Cities are becoming more powerful economically but need to find their political voice.
04:41 Fragility is deepening in vulnerable parts of the world, leading to explosive migration and multiple refugee crises.
07:04 Coastal cities face devastating consequences due to rising sea levels.
08:58 Deforestation is a major issue, but cities can take action to combat it.
11:15 Cities need a devolution revolution, green initiatives, and integrated solutions.
13:13 Integrated public transport can reduce emissions and improve public health
15:10 Cities must work together to amplify their voice on the global stage.
THANK YOU ENDLESSLY FOR THIS
If you are going to give cities more power, then that power needs to be contained within the city limits, because city people do a crappy job of managing rural areas. City solutions applied to rural areas, just creates poverty and more problems in the rural areas.
마!!! 이게한국이다!
Cities are for people who can't fend for themselves, some of whom prey upon others
Seoul used to be our country
Google Peak Oil.
Brasil domina tudo hahaha
I despise living in a city and would love to move to the country.
Obsession of the Month What's stopping you?
my wife won't move until all her relatives are dead... and I can't hide that many bodies.
badump-tis
Obsession of the Month I like the way you made me click on "Read more" to get to the "badump-tis" :-D :-D
How far do you want to be from the cities though? Countryside is not all alike and pretty sure there is a cutoff point at which you would rather not move to for lacking basic services.
were I younger but have the resources I have now, I would move as far away I as I could, and be as self sustaining as I could.
Mars perhaps.
eyyy New Zealand not on the map. Again.
You guys need to pull closer to the continent! haha
Sure, forget the countryside where all of your food comes from, focus on the cities. Forget the countries too, like who needs patriots any more.
Don't forget to call anyone who decides to move for any reason a refugee. That will eradicate confusion for sure.
And don't direct your speech to anyone in particular, address "the cities" and "governments" instead, that will get things going quickly.
Mr. Rootless Cosmopolitan mentioned nationalism in a negative context. There's nothing wrong with it. We all live in nation states. It would make sense for us to focus on improving those nation states.
It was such a great speech but he almost sounded like a politician
and?
What else are you asking about?
Decentralized nations and city-states are the future.
Who's here from ALX
These comments are depressing
The Paris Agreement is not going as it should be...
Mr. Muggah, you have a different view of society than most of us. We want to see elected persons in responsible charge close to us so that we can understand their performance, and replace them regularly under established law. We want renewable energy solutions, but not subsidized to the point of bankrupting us. And, we want nation states which can be held responsible, and help prevent mass migrations, especially those with no hope of assimilating with existing society. Vision is one thing, but we sincerely hope you will return to reality, Mr. Muggah.
Probably the easiest Ted talk to pick apart that I have seen.
cities should reduce influx of migration, housing and suburban commute !!!
아아....... 갓카... ㅠ_ㅠ 그립읍니다.......
6:45 Mistake. Look at the flow of the refuges in Ukraine. it`s going from central part of Ukraine to Russia. Bur real situation is next: flow must go from 2 eastern regions Donetsk and Luhansk, most of the refuges moved from east to the central part or western part of Ukraine, but some really moved to Russia but in numbers it is much less.
That is not a mistake. Every country is represented by one dot at its geographic center, since the resolution of the data is country level. Of course not all refugees evoke from a single spot and settle at a single spot somewhere else. So it is just not precise enough.
people in cities live longer and healthier?...... where does he get his data?? ... cities are responsible to 80% of gas emissions?.... really... not animal farming? wtf.
I think he should mention Japan instead of Seoul as an example of the infrastructure expansion. Nearly 80% of Japanese people commute to work by train, and they prefer it. By the way, thanks for this inspiring talk.
Поцаны помогите с тестом по английскому
Best TED talk ever was the one with Elon Musk!
Baby Beel Elon husk
is non flammable it is electric ;)
Save me the (@@)
States earthquakes in criteria for fragility but not one city in Japan is marked as fragile. So he took into account building codes? He just states things without backing up his statements with much explanation. Too big a topic for this time crunch, I guess. I got too frustrated to watch the whole thing.
Would you label this prolitarian nationalism?
Hi first comment
what happened to the science videos ???
go TEDed
This is science. Maybe you might want to broaden your horizon. Science is much more than rocketry. Go to the next University and see for yourself.
NONE OF THE 50 MOST HOMICIDAL CITIES IN THE WORLD ARE IN BRAZIL (THESE ARE THOSE COMEDY RANKINGS THAT DON'T HAVE MOGADISHU ON THEM), I KNOW BECAUSE I CHECK UNBIASED SOURCES. BUT ACCORDING TO HIM HALF OF THE 50 MOST HOMICIDAL CITIES IN THE WORLD ARE IN BRAZIL? HALF OF THE ENTIRE LIST OF CITIES ARE IN ONE, NOT PARTICULARLY VIOLENT COUNTRY?
His speech sounds like a cry for Anarchy.
city full of depression
I want to see a same statistic about Syria, include ISIS... No ISIS - no overall pic
Where is the science? Whaaaaaaaaah!!!!!
🗑
Does every brazilian man look exactly like Lula da Silva?
He totally contradicted everything he said around 11 min.
yeah yeah cities are great.....thats why the mighty republic of florence and the serenissima are global powers.....
Nation-states are what drives democracy, the concept of a people bounded together in one nation forging its own destiny. There is a reason why all those nice city-states were ruled by nobility of merchants or princes but not by a democratic government.
Hans Gruber First of all, The Republic of Venice was a global trade power during its prime days and could punch way above its weight politically as well in those days. Secondly, during their prime days, these merchant republics were way more democratic than other European entities which were mostly just feudal lordships practicing serfdom. It isn't a coincidence that Renaissance took place across cities among those merchant republics, rather than a feudal manor somewhere. Your argument is invalid because you failed to put things in context when trying to talk history.
Venice was a trade power but thats it. Its military might was more or less limited to the mediterreanean sea. You said it right the WERE a power for some time and they havn't been for a long time. One of the reasons being that all those feudal lordships were more powerful and gradually found ways to cut out the venetians as trade middleman. The rise of france, the rise of austria, the rise of the ottoman empire and the decline of Florence, Siena and Venice. Those merchant republics were republics of nobility, they were not democratic they just had no king. One of the biggest points why the renaissance started in italy was because they got their hands on the byzantine and arabic literature. Basically they benefitted from the fall of byzantium and al-andalus.
The city-states had their point and time where long range infrastructure and informationhighways weren't available to the big countries as soon as that changed the big countries were top dog and the city-states found thelimits of their abilities compared to the far bigger "countryside states".
Hans Gruber For obvious reasons nationstates became the dominant forces in play instead of city states, but the attmept to brand France, England and later Germany etc. as "countryside states" seems to suggest those European powers did not rely on major urban areas for trade, taxes, research, etc. You cannot simply downplay the importance of these capital cities like London, Paris and Vienna in shaping their respective countries' history. Now I take a step back, I do acknowledge there was a time period when people debated which archetype of life story constitutes the soul of a nation. Specifically in US, Thomas Jefferson favored the "Yeoman farmers" while his rival Alexander Hamilton favored the "enlightened" merchant class elites. But then came industrialization and it basically threw the question out of the window, as industrialized nations with powerful urban centers completely vanquished and humiliated non-industrialized, agarian civilizations on the battlefields over and over again. So while it would be wrong to downplay the importance of agriculture in a nation's economy, it would be equally nonsensical to believe that rural areas and agriculture are all you need to have a powerful economy and strong nation.
"it would be equally nonsensical to believe that rural areas and agriculture are all you need to have a powerful economy and strong nation."
I think you have a mistake there. Sure sucessful cities are a good thing to have but they depend absolutely on the ability of the countryside to provide them with ressources. I mean sieges were invented out of a certain reason. Yes industrial societies were more powerful than non-industrial societies but industrialization also changed the countryside of industrialized countries. They produced more food, could support more people, ressources could be moved faster through railroads, higher efficiency in production gave more people the ability to do "works of the mind" in science and other things. Urban centers are a hub of development in certain aspects but especially nowadays the people in the cities tend to forget that the people in the countryside are still there and still matter. Like i said, talk of the "fly over country" and the "deplorables" shows the attitude some citydwellers have quite well.
Oh I never doubt the people in countryside "still matter". They matter quite a bit, particularly in US, more than what they should I'd say. For the sake of extreme contrast, let's compare the metro NYC area and the whole state of Wyoming. In 2016 NYC met area's GDP is 1.6 trillion USD, about 9% of the entire US economy of that year, while the State of Wyoming had just 37 billion USD; that's over 40 times the difference. Per capita wise, NYC is at $75k and Wyoming at $58k. AND YET, during the 2016 election, NYC voters had to share just 29 electors with their upstate rural neighbors in the State of New York while Wyoming had 3. When you divide that by population, that's 519k people per elector for New York State and only 143k people per elector for Wyoming. So your average Wyoming rural voter is has at least 3 times more voting power than an average voter in NYC. Granted, these are at two extreme ends of things and majority of people live somewhere in between; the degree of urbanization is on a gradient and not an either/or. But the general trend still holds true: in US at least, rural population wield disproportionately high political influence relative to their contribution to the nation's economy and importance.
So don't give me this whole thing about interest of rural population is being ignored, because they are not: politicians HAVE to pamper them day and night to stay in power. If anything, I'd say rural population in US has been more than compensated in political power compared to what they contribute.
Robert MuggahBE???!
For an educational video, why talk politics about syria when your completely wrong about the cause of the refugees. Assad is the only reason why those cities are rebuilding now. I will end my comment with a positive. Your statistics on Syrian refugees are accurate.
Well it seemed as if he wanted to dodge the heated political debate by naming something less political that also had an influence.
Brian E Assad is the main reason they are rebuilding not the only but yes, Assad is the primary reason they are rebuilding. Also, Assad is the primary reason they need to rebuild.
Brian E hello
Brian E juju has ip
Jeeze, this guy is a hardcore globalist
Local problems can only solved by local community collectively, and national problems by a nation within itself. Likewise, global problems can only be solved through international collaboration. Whenever there is collaboration there will be compromises, it's not that hard to understand.
A Democrat type of talking.
What do you mean by "A Democrat type of talking"?
to much talking no solution
I give you one i heared: "Invest in public transport".
Of course, he lives in Brazil. We are quite used to useless talk, stupid promises and lies😅😅😅😅😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Shphynx 's discourse, guys, is the pure Brazilian kind of selfhate, aka mutt complex
You must understand the problem before thinking about solutions
9:41
What has city planning got to do with Syria again? Too much random crap at the start instead of just getting to the fucking point.
