Resilience provides a forward-looking framework to understand human–environment relations. Yet, adopted through a system-modelling approach in coupled social-ecological systems, it often reinforces a functionalist vision of the world as an interconnected whole, unable to engage with the multiplicity of people’s practices navigating change. I argue for sustained engagement with resilience and propose a socionatural approach to overcome its system-modelling limitations, thinking through the world’s entities as inherently social and natural. I discuss how socionatural resilience can be pluralized through assemblage ideas and reflect on the implications that an ontological politics of resilience poses for our conceptual framing and methodologies.

韧性为了解人类与环境的关系提供了前瞻性的框架。然而，通过耦合社会生态系统中的系统模型方法，它常常加强了功能主义的世界观，即作为一个相互联系的整体，无法参与人类在变革中的多种实践。我主张持续参与韧性，并提出一种社会自然的方法来克服其系统建模的局限性，将世界的各个实体视为固有的社会和自然因素。我讨论了如何通过组合思想来使社会自然适应力多元化，并思考适应力的本体论政治对我们的概念框架和方法论的影响。
