“…Instead of risk elimination, resilience emphasises systems–level adaptation as a more sustainable approach. Several origins in the genealogy of resilience are further traced to engineering, ecology and psychology (Bellini et al, 2017; Béné et al, 2018; Clare et al, 2017; Huang et al, 2018; Tan, 2021; Vitale et al, 2021).…”

Understanding resilience in sustainable development: Rallying call or siren song?

This article asks how the concept of resilience has been used in development studies. Set amidst the rise of resilience in sustainable development, it offers insights for scholars and policymakers, alike. Sampling 419 journal articles from 2017 to 2022, it uses Kuhnian paradigms to analyse development knowledge production on resilience. This produces three key findings. First is the absence of a coherent resilience paradigm (with shared definitions, problems and methods) in development studies. Second is its use, instead, by incumbent development paradigms in piecemeal fashion to extend and/or repackage pre‐existing arguments. Third are ensuing possibilities for resilience as both a rallying call and siren song in sustainable development. Ultimately, resilience‐based research and policy discourses open vital space for collective action across interdisciplinary and international divides. However, a lack of critical awareness of its non‐uniform use can produce more harm than help. If the language of resilience is to advance collective prospects for development cooperation and climate action, then it will help to know precisely what we each are talking about.

“…In engineering, emphasis is placed on structural integrity against major shocks (Bellini et al, 2017; Vitale et al, 2021). Here, resilience prioritises elasticity over hardness when measuring a system's strength; for example, the tensile strength of bamboo over ceramic or brick.…”

“…Studies comparing the performance of different models have aimed to establish the best model that is adaptable to areas with similar surface characteristics (Wakabayashi et al, 2019). A combined model of multiple criteria with machine learning has been adopted in most studies (Komolafe et al, 2019;Vitale et al, 2023).…”

Over the past few years, numerous urban areas have been identified in floodplains and coastal regions. These areas should be repurposed as water storage zones to enhance surface water infiltration. The escalating demand for land in flat areas adds complexity to the susceptibility of urban areas to flood hazards. The observation focuses on understanding how land use change influences urban flood susceptibility assessment. Several aspects assumed to have a significant relationship with the flood phenomenon include the impact of land use change, environmental health impact, modification of land typology, explanation of urban flooding, appropriate model for flood-prone assessment, current state of research, appropriate steps in decision-making in susceptibility areas, and challenges of the scenario-based flood-prone mapping model in the future. Additionally, the assessment aspect should consider the impact of land degradation resulting from land use change. Integrated measures are necessary to guide future studies aimed at improving ecological quality and restoring environmental health. The availability of free and open-source datasets facilitates conducting studies to support decision-making both locally and regionally.
