This book provides an alternative perspective on community resilience, drawing on critical sociological and social policy insights about how people individually and collectively cope with different kinds of adversity. Based on the idea that resilience is more than simply an invention of neoliberal governments, this book explores diverse expressions of resilience and considers what supports and undermines people’s resilience in different contexts. Focusing on the United Kingdom, it examines the contradictions and limitations of neoliberal resilience policies and the role of policy in shaping how vulnerabilities are distributed and how resilience is manifested. The book explores different types of resilience including planning, response, recovery, adaptation and transformation, which are examined in relation to different types of threat such as financial hardship, disasters and climate change. It argues that resilience cannot act as an antidote to vulnerability, and aims to demonstrate the importance of shared institutions in underpinning resilience and in preventing socially created vulnerabilities. It will be of interest to academics, students and well-informed practitioners working with the concept of resilience within the subject areas of Sociology, Social Policy, Human Geography, Environmental Humanities and International Development.

My name is David. I am a survivor.I have survived various "character-building" events such as living rough on the streets of England, being lost at sea in a canoe, being stranded in the mountains during winter, being attacked with knives and bats, and having to defend my living space from armed invasion.I have had extensive experience of being on my own with no support and no supplies, starving, and sometimes with injuries and with people trying to harm me. I believe that what I learnt during those few dark years of homelessness has uniquely prepared me for the future - a future without government help, where the emergency services no longer exist, and where your neighbours arm themselves to take your food.This is not so much a "how to" book as a call to action, and it contains practical advice that has been put to the test in the real world under conditions of starvation and attack.I will not be suggesting that at the end of the world humanity will pull together and we'll all be walking around holding hands and sharing food. I'm afraid the reality of survival, particularly when everything is lost, is that there'll be times when you'll have to fight for your life.This book is for men and women - mums and dads as well as individuals - who are concerned with the way the world is going, and who want to be absolutely sure they can keep their families safe. We will be having an honest, no nonsense look at personal survival when you and your family are absolutely on your own, cut off, without help, starving and under attack.
