“…Furthermore, conditions of resilience are dynamic, not static, so evaluation of components and measures is required on a consistent basis [71]. However, resilience in communities can be enhanced through preparedness planning, risk awareness, and communication [17,37,70]. Hotels, seen through the community resilience lens, are multifaceted groups and need dynamic and collaborative analysis, preparedness, and communication ideas for handling potential disasters.…”

“…While disaster risk reduction is a component of disaster resilience, this initiative does not seek to address other possible components of organisational resilience. These include organisational structure and flexibility [102,18], adaptive capacity [40,102], and less tangible resources such as social capital [37]. Qualities such as sense of community and self-efficacy improve resiliency [26,37], and may be more influenced by organisational culture than disaster risk reduction strategies.…”

A B S T R A C TWithin the tourism industry, the hotel sector's vulnerabilities are multi-faceted. This literature discussion scrutinizes how disaster and resilience is framed for the tourism sector, and, more specifically, how the concepts can be applied to the hotel sector. A synthesis of the literature points to the importance of prioritizing disaster resilience building for the hotel sector. The body of literature regarding disasters, tourism, and more specifically hotels, has increased over the last 20 years, still improvements in the hotel sector's disaster preparedness and do not appear to be on the same trajectory. Illustrating the predicament of the contemporary hotel industry serves to open a discussion about the value of building resiliency to disaster for hotels. As the numbers of people affected by disasters grows, the importance of providing actionable information to limit the severity of these events on communities also escalates in pace.

“…Pada definisi ini, nampaknya resiliensi itu dikategoriikan sebagai "sosial" lebih ditentukan oleh entitas yang dikaji, yakni grup atau komunitas; dan juga sumber gangguannya, yakni sosial dan politik. Hal yang sama juga dijumpai pada definisi resiliensi sosial yang dikemukakan oleh Kwok et al [6]. Merka mengemukakan bahwa: "Social resilience -the capacity of people and communities to deal with external stresses and shocks".…”

In recent years, resilience has received the most attention from various parties. The concept which was initially better known in the ecological field, then also developed in the social field, so that the term social resilience is known. Some social scientists have made a definition of social resilience, but it still needs to be criticized from the standpoint of sociology. This paper aims to discuss the concept of social resilience from the perspective of sociology. Furthermore, the second purpose of this paper is to describe the resilience of small fishing communities in a village in Banyuwangi as an example application of the social resilience concept discussed. The method used to achieve the first objective is by reviewing relevant writings to discuss social resilience from a sociological point of view. Meanwhile, the second objective was discussed using data from the results of the field study, which was conducted using a qualitative approach. According to the author, social resilience can be defined as the ability of a social system to maintain its social integrity or integration, when and / or after being interrupted, both from within and from outside. Furthermore, at the empirical level, this study shows that the small fishing community in Lampon, Banyuwangi has a high social resilience, which is shown by remaining intact this community despite and has been experiencing various pressures and threats, including climate change and tsunami disasters. Dalam beberapa tahun belakangan ini, resiliensi mendapat perhatian yang besar dari berbagai pihak. Konsep yang awalnya lebih dikenal di bidang ekologi ini, kemudian juga berkembang juga di bidang sosial, sehingga dikenal istilah resiliensi sosial. Beberapa ilmuwan sosial telah membuat definisi resilensi social, namun terasa masih perlu dikritisi dari sudut pandang sosiologi. Tulisan ini bertujuan untuk membahas konsep resiliensi sosial tersebut dari perspektif sosiologi. Selanjutnya, tujuan yang kedua dari tulisan ini adalah untuk mendeskripsikan resiliensi komunitas nelayan kecil di satu desa di Banyuwangi sebagai contoh aplikasi dari konsep resiliensi sosial yang telah dibahas. Metode yang digunakan untuk mencapai tujuan pertama adalah dengan me-review tulisan yang relevan untuk membahas tentang resiliensi sosial ditinjau dari sudut pandang sosiologi. Sementara itu, tujuan kedua dibahas dengan menggunakan data hasil studi lapang, yang dilakukan dengan pendekatan kualitatif. Menurut penulis, resiliensi sosial dapat didefinisikan sebagai kemampuan suatu sistem sosial untuk mempertahankan keutuhan atau integrasi sosialnya, pada saat dan/atau setelah mendapat gangguan, baik dari dalam maupun dari luar. Selanjutnya, pada tataran empiris, penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa komunitas nelayan kecil di Lampon, Banyuwangi memiliki resiliensi sosial yang tinggi, yang ditunjukkan dengan tetap utuhnya komunitas ini sekalipun telah dan sedang mengalami berbagai tekanan dan ancaman, termasuk perubahan iklim dan bencana tsunami.

“…The following are the core attributes of community social importance and the accompanying act of attenuation: Figure 1 shows that in Kwok et al [11] research there is a practitioner, researcher, and policymaking perspective revealing the structural and cognitive properties of social importance. Increasing social interests requires not only the necessary personnel, economic resources, and physical assets of the community, but also has long-lasting attitudes and beliefs that encourage positive resolutions to disaster-related challenges.…”
