Abstract
This article explores whether regions following common development paths experience similar levels of resilience when faced with a shock. Analyses of three different indicators of resilience (value added, employment, productivity) across UK local authority districts between 1980 and 2015 reveal that regions following a common evolutionary path did not respond homogeneously to the global financial crisis, and they experienced different levels of resilience across resilience indicators. There does not appear to be a common development path which guarantees resilience to a future shock. Understanding connections between conflicting indicators of resilience is paramount to inform policies to enhance resilience.
