复原力作为一个概念正在受到极大的关注，为气候变化和发展政策及方案提供信息。与此同时，出现了一些批评，质疑它作为应对城市气候变化的框架概念的使用。本文通过对印度两个城市的亚洲城市气候变化韧性网络（ACCCRN）倡议的审查，反思了气候韧性及其批评。我们说明方面的韧性批判，并利用证据的倡议转型方面，我们认为，韧性思维必须与转型的概念，以使问题的人，政治和权力的前列。在这一过程中，复原力的概念力量可以与一个更激进的议程相结合，这个议程涉及决定风险和脆弱性的基本政治结构和权衡。
Resilience is receiving substantial traction as a concept to inform climate change and development policies and programmes. At the same time, a number of critiques have emerged that question its use as a framing concept for tackling urban climate change. This paper reflects on climate resilience and its critiques through an examination of the Asian Cities Climate Change Resilience Network (ACCCRN) initiative in two cities in India. We illustrate aspects of the resilience critique and, using evidence of transformational aspects of the initiative, we argue that resilience thinking must be coupled with the concept of transformation in order to bring issues of people, politics and power to the fore. In the process, the conceptual strength of resilience can be combined with a more radical agenda that engages with underlying political structures and trade-offs that determine risk and vulnerability.
