Resilience Amidst Disruptions

Against the rapid changes in today’s

global environment, the concept of

resilience has become increasingly

important as a goal for societies and

states affected by different types of

crises. In light of new types of disrup-

tions, the concern about resilience –

particularly building resilience for vul-

nerable communities that are strug-

gling to bounce back and/or adapt af-

ter a disaster – has been become

more critical. As a policy goal, resili-

ence has reached higher political sig-

nificance and relevance in global gov-

ernance given the interconnected and

transnational implications of building

resilience amidst 21st century disrup-

tions.

What is new about the kinds of disrup-

tions we face today? And, how should

these kinds of disruptions be ad-

dressed collectively by the internation-

al community? These were some of

the major questions deliberated on at

the 3rd Annual Convention of the Con-

sortium of Non-Traditional Security

(NTS) in Asia held in Singapore on 27-

28th March 2018.

Building resilience and dealing with

disruptions are not mutually exclusive.

But in order to deal with both concerns

comprehensively, one needs to under-

stand what is new about resilience and

about disruptions in a changed global

environment. Disruption refers to an

event that challenges an existing order

and may catalyse gradual or radical

changes in norms and practices in eco-

nomic activity, security and political

stability within state and society. Dis-

ruptions in Asian countries have

caused fundamental changes in the

past half-century, from war, poverty

and hunger to climate change and

technological development.

The impacts of climate change and

technological advancements have

been notably dramatic. Climate

change has been known to be a threat

multiplier, generating ‘consequences of

consequences’, from water, energy

and food scarcity to forced migration

and the emergence of new types of

infectious diseases. Climate change-

induced extreme weather patterns

have also resulted in catastrophic dis-

asters that have wrought massive

devastation on lives and property,

causing massive displacement of

human population.

Meanwhile, the rapid advances in

technology, also known as the

‘Fourth Industrial Revolution’, have

brought about significant implica-

tions on many aspects of human

life and on the nature of inter-state

and intra-state relations. The im-

pact of technological advancement

has revolutionary changed the na-

ture of inter-personal communica-

tion, information processing, busi-

ness transactions and even the

conduct of political campaigns.

However, both people and states

are not yet prepared for the disrup-

tions brought about by technologi-

cal breakthroughs such as privacy

breach, cybercrime and even

cyberterrorism.

There are clear policy imperatives

in understanding and dealing with

these new kinds of disruptions and

their effects on the environment

and climate, agriculture and food,

on humanitarian crisis and forced

displacement, and cyber space.

But in order to build societal resili-

ence and ensure the security of

states and societies, one must not

lose sight of the more structural

causes that can magnify the vul-

nerabilities of affected groups and

communities. This is where no-

tions of resilience must also be

revisited against new kinds of

complexities that these disruptions

generate on the ability of vulnera-

ble communities to cope, bounce

back and adapt. This means that

the task of building resilience goes

beyond building capacity and em-

powering local communities to re-

spond to disasters. It also neces-

sitates the need to link local initia-

tives with regional and global

frameworks and institutions that

are geared to respond to these

disruptions. In doing so, building

resilience is a participatory and

inclusive policy framework that

brings together multiple stakehold-

ers, both public and private actors,

working collaboratively at multiple

levels from the local and national

to the regional and international

arena.
