A guide for measuring resiliency and resistance

Robert S. Burrell and John Collison

Small Wars and Insurgencies, 2024, vol. 35, issue 1, 147-172

Abstract: This essay addresses the critical need to apply a more advanced human-centric model in assessing current levels of governmental and societal resilience and resistance to subversion and coercion, as well as internal and/or external aggression. It proposes a method of analysis and assessment of the will, potential, and sustainability for national and/or sub-national resilience, as well as the potential for resistance to malign indigenous governance or external aggression. Finally, it examines, from a prospective external supporter’s perspective, the likely success of support to a partner’s resiliency or the potential to enable resistance to inspire change in adversary behaviors.
