Hi Anthony, thanks for your reply. I was deliberately leaving it open to interpretation to try and determine how familiar people in the industry are with Resilience theory, particularly in relation to ecological resilience and Social Ecological Systems. My dissertation is arguing that it is currently a very misunderstood or unfamiliar concept and perhaps it would be of value to use the methods involved as a design tool for landscape architects. Reading over my question, though, it is a bit vague. Thanks for the feedback
