弹性、脆弱性和适应———IHDP 三个核心概念综述

doi:10.11820/dlkxjz.2007.05.002

摘要/Abstract

摘要：

弹性、脆弱性和适应是全球环境变化人文因素计划( IHDP) 中三个非常重要的核心概念。由于各自学科研究传统的差异, 不同学科在使用这些概念时其含义有很大差异, 有的甚至是不可比的。本文主要根据《Global Environmental Change》2006 年第3 期发表的IHDP 学术委员会专题研讨会成果, 结合UNU 关于脆弱性的研究成果, 重点介绍了这三个核心概念的演变以及相互联系等方面的最新研究进展。

关键词: 脆弱性, 弹性, 全球环境变化, 人文因素, 适应

Abstract:

Efforts to improve the knowledge on the human dimensions of global environmental change and ensure relevance to society require periodical assessment of the conceptual frameworks used in the study of these complex issues. As one of the four cross- cutting themes of IHDP, resilience, vulnerability and adaptation are three key concepts in the research of the Human Dimensions of Global Environmental Change. However, these concepts are widely used in many fields, such as, economy, engineering, psychology and anthropology. For different research traditions these terms are used in different, sometimes incompatible, ways. In order to clarify the three key concepts, the Scientific Committee of IHDP organized a workshop in February 2005. A series of articles that resulted from the IHDP workshop were published on the journal of Global Environmental Change Issue No. 16 2006. Based on the above articles and the researches of UNU, this paper reviews research traditions of resilience, vulnerability and adaptation respectively, with focus on the current researches on the conceptual relations among these core concepts as cross- cutting themes in the field of global environmental change and disaster riskreduction.

Key words: adaptation, global environmental change, IHDP, resilience, vulnerability
