International audienceThe development of strategies to reduce vulnerability and increaseadaptation to global changes has become a major challenge for sustainable urbandevelopment, but urban vulnerability and adaptation are not easy concepts tounderstand. The objective of this study is to review the dialectic relations betweenvulnerability and adaptation and to show how integrating vulnerability perception intolocal urban management induces a chain of complex processes. There will beunwanted backwards loops appearing within this chain. This may explain that thewillingness of cities to adapt to climate change can, far from the objective pursued toreduce their vulnerability, create on the contrary the conditions of future catastrophicevents
