Elements of historical resilience research: On the history overcoming crises and hardships

Can we learn anything from overcoming crises and hardships? Can risks be eliminated without side effects? What characterises resilient systems? Questions like these are asked in a similar way in interdisciplinary resilience research. However, it makes sense to address them from a historical perspective as well. Resilience is a complex and multifaceted topic that is also relevant to historical research. The existing potential for this is explored in an essay from a scientific theory perspective and demonstrated with empirical examples from various types of studies, but discussed in depth using the example of agricultural history studies in particular. Historical resilience research is presented in a specific way and put up for discussion as a contribution to sustainable development.
