To examine whether and how resilience theory and its applications address social, political, and cultural dynamics in global environmental change research.
Reviewed theoretical and empirical literature published since 2010 across human geography, environmental change, natural resource management, and international development.
Analyzed three emerging research themes: community resilience, transformations, and resilience as a conceptual framework for radical change.
Identified a continuing scarcity of theoretical and empirical analyses addressing social difference and power dynamics in resilience literature.
Documented unresolved tensions between normative and analytical stances on resilience across academic scholarship, policy discourses, and local-level interventions.
