Sustainability is increasingly concerned with the complex interactions between nature and society, and we need to seek solutions towards the challenges that threaten humanity's collective wellbeing. Towards this end, it is critical to advance the application of research examining the dynamic interactions of the components of complex social-ecological systems and their emerging properties. A key research area is on advancing tools and strategies relevant to the evaluation and strengthening of resilience. Redundancy, diversity, and modularity are important characteristics of resilience with a high potential for application in various critical social-ecological systems. This paper provides a critical overview of the theoretical underpinnings of modularity and redundancy and their application in measuring resilience of trade networks with implications for public policy and institutional design.
可持续发展越来越关注自然与社会之间的复杂相互作用，我们需要寻求应对威胁人类集体福祉挑战的解决方案。为此，推进研究的应用至关重要，这些研究考察复杂社会生态系统各组成部分的动态相互作用及其新兴特性。一个关键研究领域是推进与评估和增强恢复力相关的工具和策略。冗余、多样性和模块化是恢复力的重要特征，在各种关键社会生态系统中具有很高的应用潜力。本文对模块化和冗余的理论基础及其在衡量贸易网络恢复力中的应用进行了批判性综述，并探讨了其对公共政策和制度设计的影响。
