摘要:This special issue grew out of the idea to generate an overview on the state-of-the-art of resilience and vulnera- bility studies in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. In the past years we have experienced a huge demand from our students as well as academic and professional colleagues for an overview of studies of and experiences with resil- ience or vulnerability within a specific hazard, country, methodological or other context. Based on this we devel- oped the idea to compile and structure the existing state-of- the-art within what we termed an “Atlas of Vulnerability and Resilience Research,” aiming at promoting different types of knowledge, knowledge transfer between academic disciplines and between science, policy, and practice, and underlining the role of education, learning, and communi- cation. In order to prepare such a compendium we started to spread the idea and build up a network.
