Resilience has become the dominant and normative ideology of sustainability more generally, and disaster recovery more specifically. Most studies focus on how to achieve resilient recovery. This is premised on an assumption that resilience meets the needs and concerns of disaster-affected populations and is thereby sustainable. However, this article critically explores to what extent the recovery needs and concerns of disaster-affected households fit neatly within resilience vernacular and analytical frameworks. The research shows that resilience is informed by a reductive understanding of human needs as many socio-cultural needs of disaster-affected people are marginalized from resilience-based recovery. The article suggests that if disaster recovery is to be a normative and sustainable agenda, then resilience alone may be insufficient, and that needs and concerns that do not directly adapt to, reduce or avoid the impacts of hazards, ought to be prioritized in recovery programmes. The article explores these issues by investigating self-build housing processes in a post-disaster setting in Cochabamba city in Bolivia.

可持续的复原力？灾后恢复和社会文化需求和关注的边缘化

恢复力已成为更普遍的可持续性的主导和规范意识形态，更具体地说是灾难恢复。大多数研究侧重于如何实现弹性恢复。这是基于一个假设，即复原力满足受灾人口的需求和关注，因此是可持续的。然而，本文批判性地探讨了受灾家庭的恢复需求和担忧在多大程度上与韧性本土和分析框架完美契合。研究表明，恢复力源于对人类需求的还原性理解，因为受灾人群的许多社会文化需求在基于恢复力的恢复中被边缘化。文章建议，如果灾难恢复要成为规范和可持续的议程，那么仅靠复原力可能是不够的，不能直接适应、减少或避免危害影响的需求和关注点应该在恢复计划中得到优先考虑。本文通过调查玻利维亚科恰班巴市灾后环境中的自建住房过程来探讨这些问题。
