On 21-22 June 2016, School of Humanities and Social Sciences, Nanyang Technological University and Future Resilient Systems, Singapore-ETH Centre held a conference on socio-technical constitution of resilience. Twenty eight scholars from as various disciplines as humanities to civil engineering convened and discussed the subject from various angles. At the centre of attention was the concept of resilience, which inherited its meaning from socio-ecological system research, referring to its capacity to absorb disturbance and maintain its integrity. However, the concept was recast for a more specific context, namely sociotechnical context, characterised by intentions of both human and technological agents. In such specific context, resilience comprised of three core aspects: its informational relations, its sociomaterial structures, and its anticipatory practices (Amir and Kant, 2017). Informational relations referred to “how information is organised and managed to support continued operation of sociotechnical system” (ibid.), while sociomaterial structures referred to “mutual entanglement of human organisation and material structures” (ibid.). Finally, anticipatory practices referred to “construction of regular activities aimed at anticipating possibilities of what would occur in the future” (ibid.).
