There was a resilience conference in Stockholm! They said:
"This year the public has become aware of a cluster of predicted crises, such as the rise of food prices due to energy market changes and the collapse of the financial market. We see that small instabilities and risks spread to practically all developed countries in the world.
However, globalisation also adds a great positive value because the individual or small groups can have an increasingly global effect."
They recommend "novelty thinking." Not sure what it's all about! Something about "transdisciplinary research for governance of social-ecological systems with a special emphasis on resilience - the ability to deal with change and continue to develop."

Novelty thinking is most likely examining the conserved ideas and thought patterns we have, and exploring alternatives, warming up to new ideas and adding greater and greater additions of spontaneity to our conceptual activity. The thoughts can lead to actions. For example, one might think, "I wonder what would happen if I didn't keep on believing this way?" and then become open to exploring another path. (Moreno's Canon of Creativity for thinkers)
