Resilient Citizens by Chris Ellis
Blending battlefield experience, cutting-edge disaster research, and real-world stories of ranchers, homesteaders, and policymakers, Resilient Citizens is a gripping and essential guide for anyone ready to stop hoping and start preparing in an age of polycrisis and cascading collapse. Are you prepared for what's coming--or are you just hoping your neighbor is? From warzones to wildfires, pandemics to power outages, the threats we face today seem bigger, scarier, and more unrelenting than ever before. Why, then, does society take a critical view of those who prepare for the worst while hoping for the best? Why do so many people write them off as crazy, conspiracy-minded doomsday preppers? In Resilient Citizens, Army officer and disaster expert Dr. Chris Ellis challenges the myths, dismisses the fearmongering, and takes a much-needed, long-overdue scholarly look at prepper culture in America. This isn't another doomsday prepper guide or government-endorsed emergency brochure. It's a deep dive into the people, perils, and politics of preparedness--from ranchers in the Rockies to policymakers in D.C.--and a call to action for those who refuse to outsource their safety to luck or bureaucracy. Unpacking thousands of hours of research, Dr. Ellis will help you:- Debunk popular myths about preppers and discover the truth behind America's growing culture of preparedness.
- Understand the psychological roadblocks that keep people stuck in denial or helplessness.
- Learn the traits and strategies of those best equipped to survive and thrive amid disaster.
- Discover how different belief systems, subcultures, and nations approach long-term resilience.
- Examine the historical and political roots of America's preparedness paradox--and why the government likely won't save you.
