  abstract = {{D}rawing on an ethnographic study of housing adaptations following a historic flood in {V}ietnam's northern uplands, this paper examines the role of social networks in resilience. {N}umerous studies limit the analysis to formal groups and neglect the exploration of the web of personal relationships. {F}urthermore, the comparative role of social networks relative to, but also in combination with, other channels of resource circulation is seldom investigated. {T}his paper documents and compares the various channels through which resources flow, examines their interactions, and characterizes the patterns of circulation. {W}hile state and market resources are crucial, they alone are insufficient. {S}ocial networks and indebtedness emerge as pivotal components of resilience to environmental hazards. {H}owever, they do not ensure long-term recovery for all individuals, as they may lead to over-indebtedness and dependency. {M}oreover, the uneven distribution of social capital contributes to disparities in adaptive capacity.},
