Introduction to the Special Issue on ''Territorial Resilience: Mitigation and Firms' Adaptation'
In this editorial, we summarize and comment on the six articles published in the Special Issue on Territorial Resilience: Mitigation and Adaptation. The first four articles focus on the analysis of resistance and recoverability after an economic shock. Scuderi et al analyse the relationship between location and resilience of firms by working with micro shops in Uganda. Botezat et al study the role of institutional change on economic and social resilience. Monastiriotis and Martelli (2020) and Geelhoedt et al (2020) analyse the labour market resilience of Greek and Spanish regions, respectively during the Great recession. The last two papers are devoted to renewal, a less studied dimension of resilience. Pontarollo and Serpieri (2020) introduce a novel conceptual framework related to regional economic resilience, namely the renewal capacity. Last, Jimenez-Medina et al provide an interesting case study of a small Spanish town that has successfully moved from being a mining industrial area to a mining heritage tourism place. From our perspective, these articles contribute to a better understanding of the complex sequence between mitigation and adaptation strategies, while they also leave open several questions that could clearly stimulate future research on the tòpic.
