Our world is becoming increasingly complex. To make it more secure, we need resilience – understood as generic adaptability. In this book, CSS’ Benjamin Scharte argues that resilience can be normatively desirable if it is used to combine individual freedom and security. Based on this, he develops a new resilience concept for civil security research and shows how the engineering sciences can implement it through system principles such as diversity, modularity, decentralization and redundancy.
