This book explores the concept of 'resilience' in the context of militaries and militarization. Focusing on the U.S., Britain, Canada, Australia, and continental Europe, it argues that, post-9/11, there has been a shift away from 'trauma' and towards 'resilience' in framing and understanding human responses to calamitous events. The contributors to this volume show how resilience-speech has been militarized, and deeply entrenched in imagined communities. As the concept travels, it is applied in diverse and often contradictory ways to a vast array of experiences, contexts, and scientific fields and disciplines. By embracing diverse methodologies and perspectives, this book reflects on how resilience has been weaponized and employed in highly gendered ways, and how it is central to neoliberal governance in the twenty-first century. While critical of the use of resilience, the chapters also reflects on more positive ways for humans to respond to unforeseen challenges. Joanna Bourke is Professor of History at Birkbeck, University of London, UK and Fellow of the British Academy. She is the author of 16 books and over 120 academic articles. Her books include An Intimate History of Killing, What It Means to be Human, and Disgrace: Global Reflections on Sexual Violence. Robin May Schott is a philosopher and Senior Researcher at the Danish Institute for International Studies in the unit on Peace and Violence. She is the author or editor of 10 books and over 60 academic articles. Her books include Discovering Feminist Philosophy and Cognition and Eros.
