Abstract

A soft spaces lens enables a nuanced perspective on regional resilience governance to disruptions. Focusing on COVID-19, this article illuminates comparative insights into resilience governance in England and how the regional soft spaces of local resilience forums differentially experienced this momentous disruptive event. The pandemic has exposed the limited ability of these regional soft spaces to enhance resilience to disruptions and thus narrow the resilience implementation gap. This article contributes to theory and practice on the tensions and opportunities to progress resilience governance through regional soft spaces amid an evolving policy landscape post-pandemic.

对破坏的弹性:区域软空间的作用

一个软空间的镜头可以对区域的弹性治理进行细致入微的观察。本文以COVID-19为重点，阐述了对英格兰韧性治理的比较见解，以及地方韧性论坛的区域软空间如何以不同的方式经历这一重大破坏性事件。大流行病暴露了这些区域软空间在增强抵御破坏能力从而缩小抵御能力执行差距方面的有限能力。本文对大流行后不断变化的政策环境中通过区域软空间推进韧性治理的紧张关系和机遇的理论和实践有所贡献。

期刊介绍： Regional Studies is a leading international journal covering the development of theories and concepts, empirical analysis and policy debate in the field of regional studies. The journal publishes original research spanning the economic, social, political and environmental dimensions of urban and regional (subnational) change. The distinctive purpose of Regional Studies is to connect insights across intellectual disciplines in a systematic and grounded way to understand how and why regions and cities evolve. It publishes research that distils how economic and political processes and outcomes are contingent upon regional and local circumstances. The journal is a pluralist forum, which showcases diverse perspectives and analytical techniques. Essential criteria for papers to be accepted for Regional Studies are that they make a substantive contribution to scholarly debates, are sub-national in focus, conceptually well-informed, empirically grounded and methodologically sound. Submissions are also expected to engage with wider debates that advance the field of regional studies and are of interest to readers of the journal.
