Resilience is increasingly discussed as a key concept across many
fields of international policymaking from sustainable development
and climate change, insecurity, conflict and terrorism to urban and
rural planning, international aid provision and the prevention of
and responses to natural and man-made disasters. Edited by leading
academic authorities from a number of disciplines, this is the
first handbook to deal with resilience as a new conceptual approach
to understanding and addressing a range of interdependent global
challenges. The Handbook is divided into nine sections:
Introduction: contested paradigms of resilience; the challenges of
resilience; governing uncertainty; resilience and neoliberalism;
environmental concerns and climate change adaptation; urban
planning; disaster risk reduction and response; international
security and insecurity; the policy and practices of international
development. Highlighting how resilience-thinking is increasingly
transforming international policy-making and government and
institutional practices, this book will be an indispensable source
of information for students, academics and the wider public
interested in resilience, international relations and international
security.
