Editorial Helen Castle

The instability of the environment and associated virulent

freak weather conditions threaten economic and political

stability at a local and global scale. Here, the cloud before the

storm: the Gulf coast braces for Hurricane Katrina.

‘Uncertainty stems from the fact that the benefits of globalisation will not be universal, and conflict,

instability, environmental and ethical issues will rise to the fore even more.’ When Brian McGrath and

Grahame Shane wrote these words in their introduction in the early summer of 2005, little could they

have anticipated just how cruelly apt they would prove to be by the issue’s publication in the autumn.

Since then, the ravages that Hurricane Katrina has left in her wake have almost incessantly been played

out on our TV screens, catapulting the world’s population to a heightened awareness of the earth’s

precarious environmental position and the fragility of the general urban situation. Following close on the

heels of the tsunami in the Pacific Ocean, Katrina has confronted us with the very human misery that is

brought about by a natural disaster on any side of the world. She has also effectively transmitted into

everyone’s living rooms the images of a third-world urban population in a supposedly first-world country:

an impoverished people, left at starvation point; desolation and desperation fanning up violence and

lawlessness; statistical knowledge of the widening gap between rich and poor; and the promise of a

potentially volatile situation being very different from the ‘in-your face’ experiential power of TV footage.

The poignancy of this issue cannot thus be ignored in light of recent events. It is unarguable that

remote sensing and hand-held devices will, in the future, play a very important part in the surveillance

and monitoring of environmental and demographic shifts in conurbations. They will have an important

role in both the pre-empting of natural disasters and immediate warning systems. (After the tsunami,

there was media discussion about how mobile phones might be used to give out warning in the effected

area.) In the States, it is certain that there will be a call for further investment in technology to better

anticipate the enormity of such extreme weather conditions and to test man-made defences. However,

what McGrath and Shane, as architects and urban designers, have brought to this context is that

technology alone is not enough. This issue combines penetrating essays with what is effectively a

scrapbook of localised global reports compiled through the guest-editors’ own academic international

network. It stresses, as they describe, both an understanding of the ‘near and the far’, and technology

analytically interpreted on the ground with the aid of intelligence, creativity and humanity. 4
