More than two decades after Michael Rutter (1987) published his
summary of protective processes associated with resilience,
researchers continue to report definitional ambiguity in how to
define and operationalize positive development under adversity. The
problem has been partially the result of a dominant view of
resilience as something individuals have, rather than as a process
that families, schools,communities and governments facilitate.
Because resilience is related to the presence of social risk
factors, there is a need for an ecological interpretation of the
construct that acknowledges the importance of people's interactions
with their environments. The Social Ecology of Resilience provides
evidence for this ecological understanding of resilience in ways
that help to resolve both definition and measurement problems.
