Abstract
Resilience challenges for cities require bridging the gap between theorized concepts, such as resilience attributes, and its application to urban planning. Resilience attributes have been used by international policy initiatives to guide urban resilience without paying attention to how these attributes are represented in public policies. We present an analytical approach to examine the application of resilience attributes in resilience public policy. We apply our approach to evaluate the design of the Resilience Strategy developed for Mexico City under the 100 Resilient Cities Program. We find that creating tangible, meaningful action in government for urban resilience is hampered by concepts that cannot easily be translated into urban planning. Our analytical approach allows a practical and systematic assessment of the representation of resilience attributes, offering an opportunity to adjust and reframe the design of resilience policies balancing scientific knowledge with what is meaningful for decision-makers.
