Abstract

Purpose In Iran, the frequent occurrence of disasters has always been a major problem. In recent decades, disasters have created considerable challenges, especially in cities. Hence, understanding the levels of urban resilience (UR) and planning for addressing vulnerabilities plays a key role in the era of increasing risks and uncertainties. The present study aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the state of resilience of Iranian cities. Design/methodology/approach A systematic literature review method was used to determine how resilient Iranian cities are. To find relevant studies, the authors searched Iranian and international databases such as Scopus, ScienceDirect, SID and Magiran. There was no restriction on the inclusion date, meaning that all papers published up until September 16, 2021 were considered for inclusion. The PRISMA framework was used for literature search and selection and, finally, 153 studies focused on 52 cities of Iran were selected for the systematic review. Findings In general, the results showed that the level of resilience was low in Iranian cities. Also, informal settlements, worn-out urban fabrics and the central parts of cities showed lower resilience than other parts. Originality/value The results of the study can be used to inform municipal authorities, urban planners and non-governmental organizations of the actions that need to be taken to enhance the resilience of Iranian cities.

伊朗城市恢复力状况综述
目的在伊朗,灾害的频繁发生一直是一个大问题。近几十年来,灾害带来了相当大的挑战,尤其是在城市。因此,在风险和不确定性不断增加的时代,了解城市复原力的水平和应对脆弱性的规划发挥着关键作用。本研究旨在全面概述伊朗城市的恢复力状况。设计/方法/方法采用系统的文献综述方法来确定伊朗城市的弹性。为了找到相关研究,作者搜索了伊朗和国际数据库,如Scopus、ScienceDirect、SID和Magiran。入选日期没有限制,这意味着截至2021年9月16日发表的所有论文都被考虑入选。PRISMA框架用于文献检索和选择,最终选择了153项针对伊朗52个城市的研究进行系统综述。调查结果显示,总体而言,伊朗城市的恢复力水平较低。此外,非正规住区、破旧的城市结构和城市中心地区的复原力低于其他地区。原创性/价值研究结果可用于向市政当局、城市规划者和非政府组织通报需要采取的行动,以提高伊朗城市的复原力。
