Description

Over the last twenty-five years, resilience has become a central concept in political philosophy, crossing the disciplinary fields from its origins in psychology, engineering, and ecology to policy concerns of coping with the consequences of Covid-19 and other zoonotic diseases, global climate change, intra- and inter-state conflict and social and economic disruptions. Resilience has been particularly a question for those in the Global South, not only bearing the brunt of these ‘global’ problems but also facing a shift in policy discourses from direct aid and support to indirect forms of capacity-building and enablement
