Evaluating effectiveness of resilience governance is connected to the ecological factors. Hence, evaluating effectiveness of the role of law in governance for resilience is not just a question of legal compliance and control in a traditional sense. Beside the set of components for effective governance the essence of creating resilience is about understanding the social-ecological system. Understanding its drivers and thresholds to alternative states and make the system stay in the resilient state or move towards a better alterative state. One aspect of assessing the role of law is to assess to what extent law provides an appropriate legal design in terms of adaptivity, polycentric institutions, and participation as such. These components are all connected to effectiveness and controlling the ecosystem. However, for law to be effective legal compliance must be monitored. For the purpose of social-ecological resilience, a non-confrontational or adaptive control system is most likely to be successful.
