Purpose This paper aims to engage with the concept of resilience as theorized by David Chandler in his book Resilience: The Governance of Complexity by drawing from the theory of governmentality presented by Michel Foucault and Jonathan Joseph. Design/methodology/approach Evolving from classical liberalism to neoliberalism and from natural sciences to social sciences, the term “resilience” raises many questions about its sustainability in terms of its meaning and complexity. While most scholars tend to underscore the significance and practicality of the term, a few scholars argue that it is a failed dogma with neoliberal characteristics. As this is a theory-based study, its methodology involves close readings of academic texts produced mainly by David Chandler, Michel Foucault and Jonathan Joseph. Findings The central argument in this paper is though Chandler convincingly explains the paradigm shift of the term resilience from classical to neoliberal, his theorizing lacks the understanding that the type of power and governmentality involved in individual freedom, autonomy and complexity are actually parts of the neoliberal state. Hence, the buzzword resilience today is actually an extension of the same neoliberal thought. Originality/value First, the author attempts to critically engage with the term resilience from a sociological point of view using purposively selected academic literature. Second, the paper attempts to bring Chandler’s conceptualization on resilience into the disaster context and evaluates its practicality within the tenets of neoliberalism by drawing on Joseph’s and Foucault’s theorizations.

This article examines the phenomenon of Cambodian intellectual curiosity about China through the social experiences of Phouk Chhay, a prominent leftist activist-critic and Pol Pot's one-time secretary. Amid Phnom Penh's urban radical culture, Phouk transformed from rural student to Communist guerrilla. He associated with Communists, formed pro-China student associations, and through his networks, went on trips that left lasting impressions. This study draws from issues of the Cambodian-Chinese newspaper Mianhua ribao (Sino-Khmer Daily) and several forced confessions to tell a story of becoming that examines community and network in charting the course of ‘China-curiosity’ as intertwined with Phouk's life trajectory.

The software is analogous to a virtual-machine hypervisor in that it is not an operating system but an abstraction layer that sits between the hardware and the operating systems running on the hardware. The difference, the company says, is that Integrity provides a buffer layer that protects the operating systems on top of it from malware that may have infected the basic hardware below. This would guard against so-called Blue Pills, malicious software that controls a hypervisor. The Blue Pill also simulates the underlying hardware so the hypervisor is unaware of the Blue Pill; it thinks it is running on the hardware. Integrity also securely partitions the virtual environments running on top of it from each other. Integrity partitions are called padded cells; they can be configured to allow communication with certain cells but not with others. In virtual-machine parlance, this is like building in virtual firewalls that insulate one virtual machine from others in accordance with a corporate rule set.

On Saturday, 60 teams from Colorado competed for the best red bean and green chili as part of the 13th annual chili cook-off hosted by the North Central Colorado Oil & Gas Association. [Christy Richardson] and David Chandler of Fort Collins were there on their third date. Laughing about who was going to wheel who out by the end of the date, they said it's been years since they have last been to a chili cook-off. \"Maybe if we dance, then I can burn off some of those calories,\" Richardson said to Chandler.
