AB  - The debt crisis sparked a growing interest in resilience as a means to address socioeconomic hardship in Europe. This research used qualitative secondary analysis of three
emblematic cases to examine resilience processes in countries with diverse welfare
regimes: Poland, Portugal and Ireland. The goal is to undertake a comparative analysis
of the lived experiences of households in situations of hardship, while addressing the
influence of sociopolitical frameworks on social agency. Under an economic recession and reduced social investment, findings show that resilience processes had only marginal positive effects, consisting mostly of survival practices to cope with increased
levels of poverty and social risk, regardless of national setting. Instead of leading to
sustained improvements in their lives, resilience processes increased the vulnerability
of individuals. In the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic, the authors discuss why
policy-makers remain attracted to resilience as a social response to crises and how it is
shaping the European Union’s social policy.
