Remember all that #smartCities #rhetoric?
Events like this lead to questions about every assumption that #economists disseminated in developing a so-called "#smartCity".
What is "smart" in this context? What is "smart" about a #justInTime #supplyChain. #Smart about devalueing #productiveWork, #local #manufacturing and the #exploitation of #migrantLabour?
The #questions are now coming thick-and-fast. Maybe we will start to #question what we thought was "smart", and in-so-doing become wise. ;)
