本文提出了社会吸引子作为一种方法，以解决在考察生态-社会关系时通常应用于社会的功能主义社会学的局限性。它聚焦于“弹性思维”来论证这一案例。复原力思维被讨论为(1)作为一种分析战略，使生态和社会吸引者在生态系统和社会关系的协调方法中发挥类似的作用，以及(2)作为围绕重新沉默概念制度化的“新生态”中的一种社会运动。文章首先描述了复原力思维的制度化。然后，它认为，关于均衡的功能主义假设与弹性思维的假设相矛盾，并导致了对社会关系的混淆观点。概述了社会吸引者的理论背景，它源于批判现实主义和葛兰西学派对权力的分析。最后，通过一个涉及生态社会关系的假设例子说明了社会吸引子促进的定性的、非线性的方法论。
This article proposes social attractors as a way of addressing limitations in the functionalist sociology commonly applied to the social when examining ecological-social relations. It focuses on “resilience thinking” to argue the case. Resilience thinking is discussed (1) as an analytical strategy whereby ecological and social attractors perform analogous roles in a coordinated approach to ecosystems and social relations, and (2) as a social movement within the “new ecology” that institutionalized around the notion of resilence. The article begins by describing the institutionalization of resilience thinking. It then argues that functionalist assumptions about equilibrium contradict those of resilience thinking and lead to conflated views of social relations. The theoretical context of the social attractor, which stems from a synthesis of critical realism and Gramscian analysis of power, is outlined. Finally, the qualitative, nonlinear methodology that the social attractor facilitates is illustrated through a hypothetical example involving ecosocial relations.
