RESILIENCE: CONCEPT, APPROACHES AND IMPLICATIONS
RESILIENCE: CONCEPT, APPROACHES AND IMPLICATIONS

Summary/Abstract: “Resilience” is one of the terms most commonly used in security discourse recently. The objective of the present paper is to study the meanings and implications of this notion, whose origins lay in the exact sciences and to analyse how it is applied in security studies. The hypothesis of research is represented by the fact that resilience is one of the concepts allowing the international actors to adapt to the security environment’s dynamics. Thus, the analysis is framed in the current international context, characterized both by major interdependencies among international actors and by the increasing scope and forms of conflict. At the same time, to capture and highlight the implications of the concept in question and how it is implemented, the paper also includes an analysis of NATO and EU vision, emphasizing both the common aspects and the various shades resilience can acquire at the level of each of the two organizations.
