Resource communities are complex systems that are shaped by a combination of historical, social, economic, and environmental factors. Understanding these communities requires an innovative approach that takes into account the past and present in order to inform the future. This paper will explore the interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary perspectives that are necessary to understand the complex issues being faced by resource communities.

Drawing on global case studies across a range of natural resources, from coal and gold mining to fishing towns and logging communities, this paper will demonstrate how the past and present inform the future of these communities. It will also provide practical recommendations for ways to break open these dependencies on the past in resource communities.

This paper will be of great interest to students and scholars of natural resource governance and management, extractive industries, environmental policy, community planning and development, environmental geography, and sustainable development. It will also be of interest to policymakers involved in supporting community development in natural resource-dependent communities across the world.
