Steger -- REFERENCES -- INDEX.In Corona: The Once-in-a-Century Health Crisis and Its Teachings. Towards A More Multi-Resilient Post-Corona World Roland Benedikter and Karim Fathi first describe the pluri-dimensional characteristics of the Coronavirus crisis. Then they draw the pillars for a more "multi-resilient" Post-Corona world including socio-political recommendations of how to generate it. The Coronavirus crisis proved to be a bundle crisis consisting of multiple, interconnected crisis dimensions. Before Corona, most concepts of a "resilient society" implied a rather isolated focus on only one crisis at a time. Future preparedness in the 21st century will require a multi- and transdisciplinary risk-management concept that the authors call "multi-resilience". "Multi-resilience" means to systematically enhance universal resilience competencies of societies, such as collective intelligence or overall responsiveness, being appliable to pluri-dimensional crisis contexts. If the Coronavirus crisis in retrospect will have contributed to implement multi-resilience, than it will ultimately have contributed to progress.Studies in Critical Social Sciences ;204.Crisis managementCOVID-19 Pandemic, 2020-Social aspectsGlobalizationSocial aspectsCrisis management.COVID-19 Pandemic, 2020-Social aspects.GlobalizationSocial aspects.362.1962/414Benedikter Roland174759Fathi KarimMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910795552203321Corona3675046UNINA
