Summary

In order to make the concept of social-ecological resilience and resilience governance comprehensible in a legal context the study first established some general governance features that represents the core of resilience governance. These features are the core of what a legal design for social-ecological resilience should reflect. However, law must also safe guard the legal principles and legal characteristics of law and its role as a stable institutional base with binding requirements. The study reviewed both possible matches and potential obstacles where law may not sufficiently reflect resilience governance. However, it also unveiled legal mechanisms that contributes in other ways than expected. All in all, a general conclusion is that law has many important features that matches resilience governance and thus has the potential to form an important basis for resilience governance in many different settings.
