Cohesion and Resilience in Community and Society

Talk | 12/02, 11Am CT/12PM ET | Zoom

In cases where strong social cohesion is the result of proximity, common interests, and shared identity, solidarity is not a problem. Naturally, societies with higher levels of social cohesion are healthier and more resilient to external shocks. However, not all societies have strong social cohesion. How can we promote greater resilience in society? There is also an inherent tension between living for oneself and living for others.

Dr. Clara van den Berg (Wissenschaftszentrum Berlin, WZB) and Dr. Leah Gose (USC Dornsife’s Equity Research Institute) will discuss the differences between community and society when it comes to solidarity, resilience, and social cohesion.
