Abstract
[This Chapter discusses community resilience from the viewpoint of community’s coping capacity challenged for surviving and regrowing towards sustainable future. Such a community challenge is called “rural decline” or more broadly “community decline” to refer also to urban areas. An integrative perspective is introduced to characterize (rural) community decline. Rural decline is caused and accelerated by different natural and social stressors such as loss of population and aging, social and economic changes as well as natural disasters and climate changes. The study consists of two aspects which are mutually interrelated. One is to propose conceptual and methodological frameworks in order to strategically build up dynamic resilience for the community at stake. The second is to make full use of field-based evidence accumulated through the author’s three decade-long studies conducted in Chizu, Tottori, Japan. The case history demonstrates that people have increased adaptively their coping capacity through the long years’ participatory process. as an adaptive process for SMART community governance under persistent disruptive stressors. It is argued that communicative spaces are critical, especially to enable community’s dynamic resilience.]
