Abstract:

In order to effectively improve the dynamic adaptability of grassroots communities in China to risks, the concept of community resilience was introduced, and the construction mode and practical path of community resilience was studied. Firstly, through the analysis of policy text and field investigation, the three-dimensional dilemma of community resilience construction in China was discussed. Then, the pyramid model of community resilience was constructed. Finally, a practical path to enhance community resilience was put forward. The research shows that there are three major dilemmas in the construction of community resilience in China: insufficient policy guidance, vague construction goals and lack of construction consciousness. The community resilience construction in China can be practiced in six dimensions: spatial resilience, facility resilience, technical resilience, institutional resilience, organizational resilience and cultural resilience. The practical ways to improve community resilience include improving policy system and strengthening resource input, making clear goals to enhance the construction consciousness, and designing evaluation system to promote construction.

Key words: risk society, community resilience construction, Pyramid model, evaluation system, community emergency management
