The 2016 annual meeting of the Society for Economic Anthropology, held in Athens, Georgia, brought together speakers and poster presenters around the theme of risk and resilience. In this introduction to the corresponding issue of Economic Anthropology, we briefly summarize the landscape of past approaches to risk and resilience to situate the nine papers in this issue. These papers represent three themes: (1) how persons and communities with limited means evaluate and cope with risk and seek resilience; (2) how persons and communities cope with governmental and organizational strategies to reduce public risks; and (3) shared, meaning-rich cultural understandings of the causes and consequences of risk. We conclude that anthropology offers fruitful avenues for future research because anthropological studies (1) take a critical (but not dismissive) view of Western cultural biases in risk and resilience research, (2) take seriously the perspectives of non-Western others, (3) are often multiscalar, and (4) bridge to new topics and perspectives
