Résumé documentaire — langue originale

Resilience is an increasingly popular concept in research and practice, but quantitative resilience analyses are often disconnected from resilience theory. For example, previous studies argue that diversity, a key attribute for building resilience, and agency, essential for understanding local adaptation and transformation, are critical to understanding resilience. Despite significant progress in integrating them into qualitative frameworks, diversity and agency are rarely incorporated into quantitative social-ecological resilience metrics. This omission is concerning, given the critical role of quantitative resilience metrics in informing resilience-oriented decision-making. This study examines how diversity and agency are represented in quantitative resilience metrics across disciplines, with the goals of (a) assessing how research on social-ecological resilience currently integrates these concepts into quantitative metrics and (b) identifying future opportunities to enhance their inclusion using insights from other fields. Using topic modelling to identify different research fields and facilitate the screening process, we performed a multidisciplinary systematic meta-review of resilience metrics. To understand what types of resilience metrics are used across disciplines and where diversity and agency are more commonly included, we identified six categories of resilience metrics, with “performance under disruption” being the most used category (35%). We found that a limited number of quantitative resilience metrics include diversity and agency, with “system structure” and “compound indicators” being the main sources of diversity and agency, respectively. We further reviewed simulation models applying resilience metrics. The prevalence of performance under disruption metrics is stronger than in reviews (67%) and a similar quantity of metrics including diversity (14%) and agency (5%) was found. Drawing on insights from multiple disciplines, we outline five potential pathways to improve the inclusion of diversity and agency in social-ecological resilience metrics: using network-based metrics, using response and pathway diversity, including diversity and agency in compound indicators, integrating quantitative methodologies outside resilience theory, and improving the application of resilience in simulation models.
