自早期在工程、生态学和心理学等领域定义和分析复原力以来，这一概念在许多研究和实践领域获得了重大的推动力。它也成为水资源部门各种政策目标的有力理由，如洪水恢复力，河流恢复力和水资源恢复力。与此同时，大量的文献对弹性概念的系统本体论、自然科学根源和所谓的保守主义提出了质疑，并批评弹性思维没有解决权力问题。在这项研究中，我们回顾了这些批评，目的是开发一个框架，功率敏感的弹性分析。我们建立在权力的三个方面，概念化定义弹性的权力。我们将相关文献的讨论结构化为五个问题，这些问题在将弹性概念应用于社会水文系统时需要加以反思。这些问题涉及：（a）什么样的复原力，（B）多大规模的复原力，（c）对什么样的复原力，（d）为什么目的的复原力，（e）为谁的复原力;以及在确定这些复原力建设或分析参数时所涉及的政治选择的影响。明确地考虑这些问题可以明确地做出政治选择，以支持关于如何定义和使用复原力的谈判或论证。本文分类下：人类水>水治理.工程用水>规划用水。
Since the early work on defining and analyzing resilience in domains such as engineering, ecology and psychology, the concept has gained significant traction in many fields of research and practice. It has also become a very powerful justification for various policy goals in the water sector, evident in terms like flood resilience, river resilience, and water resilience. At the same time, a substantial body of literature has developed that questions the resilience concept's systems ontology, natural science roots and alleged conservatism, and criticizes resilience thinking for not addressing power issues. In this study, we review these critiques with the aim to develop a framework for power-sensitive resilience analysis. We build on the three faces of power to conceptualize the power to define resilience. We structure our discussion of the relevant literature into five questions that need to be reflected upon when applying the resilience concept to social-hydrological systems. These questions address: (a) resilience of what, (b) resilience at what scale, (c) resilience to what, (d) resilience for what purpose, and (e) resilience for whom; and the implications of the political choices involved in defining these parameters for resilience building or analysis. Explicitly considering these questions enables making political choices explicit in order to support negotiation or contestation on how resilience is defined and used.
