摘要:Ecology and Society's 2004 special feature on TraditionalKnowledge in Social-Ecological Systems (http://www.ecologyandsociety.org/issues/view.php/feature/13) markedone of the first efforts to view traditional, local, and Indigenousknowledge and their roles in managing ecosystems throughthe lens of social-ecological systems (SES) resilience. Thisview acknowledges the importance of experimentation,learning, and pluralism to cope with uncertainty in complexadaptive systems (Folke 2004, Folke et al. 2005, Berkes andTurner 2006, Davidson-Hunt 2006, Berkes 2009). As a framefor understanding knowledge, SES resilience provided newinspiration for scientists seeking to understand Indigenouslivelihoods and resource management, increasingly againstthe backdrop of rapid global change (Armitage and Johnson2006, Mercer et al. 2012, Raygorodetsky 2013).
