The e a e wo ypes o shocks: ex e nal and in e nal. Ex e nal shocks include sudden na u al

1. Re iew o he scien i ic li e a u e
1.1. The concep o economic esilience
The e m esilience o igina es om he La in esiliō, meaning o ebound o esis . I was i s
used in he 1940s in psychology, whe e i was s udied how people cope wi h mis o une and
ha dship (Hanisch, 2016). O e ime, he s udy o esilience has become in e disciplina y
(Alexande , 2013) and has eme ged in he con ex o di e en ields (B own, 2014; Quinlan
e al., 2016).
Resilience can be de ined as he abili y o a sys em o abso b dis u bances and adap ,
main aining i s co e unc ions, s uc u e, iden i y, and egula o y mechanisms (Walke e al.,
2004). In economic sciences, esilience has gained p ominence in analyses o economic
c ises and is unde s ood as he abili y o eco e quickly om a shock (Rose, 2004; Ma in
and Sunley, 2015; Sánchez e al., 2016).
Resilience can be ei he s a ic, ela ed o main aining key unc ions and s abili y, o dynamic,
in ol ing he e ec i e use o esou ces o eco e y, leading o a new s a e o equilib ium
(Fuchs and Thale , 2018; Xie e al., 2018). I is impo an o emphasise ha bo h he speed
and e ec i eness o ac ions aken a e a shock a e c ucial o he sys em’s e u n o s able
g ow h (Fingle on e al., 2015; Mo kūnas e al., 2018). The key capabili ies de e mining
esilience – obus ness, adap abili y, and ans o mabili y – ha e been ex ensi ely discussed
in he wo ks o Meuwissen e al. (2019) and o m he ounda ion o he ope a ionalisa ion
o dai y a m esilience adop ed in his s udy.
In he con ex o ag icul u e and a ms, economic esilience akes on mo e speci ic
cha ac e is ics. Da nho e e al. (2010) desc ibed i as he abili y o a a m o adap i s
p ac ices in esponse o a ious economic shocks and p essu es o ensu e long- e m iabili y.
Béné e al. (2012), in hei de ini ion o economic esilience, combined sho - e m esponses
wi h long- e m planning and s uc u al adap a ion, enabling a ms no only o su i e, bu
also o h i e. Mo e ecen s udies desc ibe economic esilience as he abili y o a ms o

and policy changes, and ul ima ely o mo e o a new equilib ium (Tendall e al., 2015; Vigani
and Be y, 2018).

As he need o compa a i e analysis inc eased, esea che s began o de elop quan i a i e
app oaches based on economic indica o s, econome ic models, and mul i-c i e ia assessmen

The speci ic na u e o dai y a ms means ha hei esilience canno be assessed solely on

The e o e, inc easing a en ion has been gi en o addi ional ac o s, such as income

and inno a ion sys ems (AKIS) (Vigani and Be y, 2018; Tho søe e al., 2020; Kuipe s e al.,

The li e a u e inc easingly ocuses on di e en dimensions o esilience: obus ness
( esis ance o shocks), adap abili y (adjus men capabili ies), and ans o mabili y (po en ial
o s uc u al change) (Meuwissen e al., 2019). Slijpe e al. (2022) p oposed a model o

This s udy adop s a mul i-dimensional Economic Resilience Index (ERI), de eloped by
Vigani and Be y (2018) bu adap ed o he speci ic cha ac e is ics o dai y a ms. I consis s
o i e main dimensions: ulne abili y, in ensi ica ion, biodi e si y, di e si ica ion, and
pe o mance. A key adap a ion in his s udy was he modi ica ion o he biodi e si y
