The objectives of this paper are: to demonstrate what a resilient/resistant house looks like, what qualities constitute it and how it can enable real forms of physical and social resistance.

El propósito de este artículo de reflexión es indagar sobre el concepto de resiliencia, como potenciador de resistencia en el caso de la vivienda y en un contexto posdesastre, natural y socioeconómico, en Puerto Rico. La resiliencia/resistencia se proponen como dos estadios de un proceso posible, radical y esperanzador. Algunos de los objetivos son: demostrar cómo es una casa resiliente/resistente, qué cualidades la constituyen y cómo esta puede posibilitar formas reales de resistencia física y social. La revisión bibliográfica asiste en la definición del problema y la pertinencia de la investigación, además de aportar algunas consideraciones teóricas sobre el desastre, la resiliencia y la casa, y en proveer referencias con las cuales ampliar la interpretación. La metodología consiste, principalmente, en el análisis de procesos de agenciamiento del espacio y proyectos de vivienda en Puerto Rico que han buscado resistir ante el desastre. Como parte de los resultados, se trazan parámetros para que la casa pueda resistir al desastre en todas sus facetas.
