Research into the resilience of human individuals and communities has become increasingly differentiated in recent years (Wink 2016; Karidi et al. 2018; Ungar 2021). While the concept of resilience is being applied in a variety of disciplinary contexts, there is growing political and public interest in the topic.

While the concept of resilience is being applied in a variety of disciplinary contexts, there is growing political and public interest in the topic. This proliferation of perspectives requires inter/transdisciplinary approaches. With its unique integrative approach RECOMENT wants to find ways to collaborate productively across disciplinary boundaries by comparing and integrating their respective methods, methodologies, narratives and theories. Without merging all disciplines into a unified holistic theory, RECOMENT aims to arrive at a realistic assessment of what inter- and transdisciplinary research on resilience can achieve and to elaborate the necessary framework for this venture. In doing so, RECOMENT will contribute to a better raft of measures to build resilience and to inform policy makers. To this end, numerous translations, trans-formations, and adaptations will be necessary among the life sciences, social sciences, and humanities, as well as the engineering and ecological sciences. Accordingly, the respective scientific discourses of the disciplines involved in RECOMENT are of particular relevance: archaeology, ethnology, geography, medicine, political science, psychology and sociology. » weiterlesen» einklappen
