What can we learn from this state of affairs? Can such fear be made beneficial? Is it conceivable that 'fear' might even offer a kind of \u003ci\u003eguide\u003c\/i\u003e in matters of urban planning? Guided by fantasy and invention rather than science, \u003ci\u003eCity Shock: Planning the Unexpected\u003c\/i\u003e proposes ten 'what if' scenarios, imagining how each of these scenarios could play out in the Dutch landscape between 2018 and 2047.
