Panarchy: ripples of a boundary concept [PDF]
How do social-ecological systems change over time? In 2002 Holling and colleagues proposed the concept of Panarchy, which presented social-ecological systems as an interacting set of adaptive cycles, each of which is produced by the dynamic tensions between novelty and efficiency at multiple scales.

Abstract It is clear that contemporary management education (ME) needs to be transformed to tackle complex social‐ecological crises effectively. However, the concept of transformation is often ill‐defined in the context of ME; while there is also a lack of understanding about what concrete transformation trajectories (also called scaling pathways) are ...

The Most Resilient Show on Earth: The Circus as a Model for Viewing Identity, Change, and Chaos
Resilience, adaptability, and transformability are all tightly linked to the notion of change, whether in respect to coping with, adapting to, or harnessing it. But in order to understand these forces of change, we first need to recognize its counterpart:

What Options Do We Have? The Supply Chain Resilience Funnel
ABSTRACT Supply chain resilience (SCRes) enables an organization to deal with disruptive changes over time. Previous research has often examined SCRes as a standalone concept, overlooking its multidimensional and complex roots that enable organizations to deal with change. This research integrates SCRes with connectedness and potential. Together, these

Sustainability transition theories: Perpetuating or breaking with the status quo
Abstract How scientists frame problems impact the solutions offered. Since the late 1940s development has been equated with modernization, technology adoption, and economic growth. Contrasting to this technocentric view, an ecocentric view has developed since the 1960s.

We used the adaptive cycle as a heuristic to conceptualize the changes in ecosystem services between its phases (growth, conservation, collapse, and reorganization) for Chiloé Island (southern Chile), analyzed as a social-ecological system.

A Framework for Resilience-based Governance of Social-Ecological Systems
Panarchy provides a heuristic to characterize the cross-scale dynamics of social-ecological systems and a framework for how governance institutions should behave to be compatible with the ecosystems they manage.
