Increasingly, we have to think about climate change resilience not only in terms of mitigation but also in terms of adaptation. Cities present a challenge and a key to both. But thinking about resilience just in terms of our changing climate is not enough. Annika Marlen Hinze, Ph.D., is an associate professor of political science at Fordham University. She served as the director of the Urban Studies program from July 2016 to June 2024. Her research and teaching focus on urban politics, immigration policy, democratic theory, gender equality, and qualitative and mixed methods research. Specifically, Hinze is interested in housing, transportation, and sustainability, as well as social and immigrant justice in cities.

Judd) of the 10th edition of City Politics: The Political Economy of Urban America (Routledge, 2018), as well as the 11th edition of the newly titled City Politics: Cities and Suburbs in 21st Century America (Routledge, 2022), and co-editor (with James M. Smith) of the recently published 8th edition of American Urban Politics in a Global Age (Routledge, 2024).
