abstract="The article discusses the resilience concept from a critical review. It prioritizes texts produced by organizations with leading roles in the field of child and adolescent health (PAHO, Pan-American Health Organization; ASBRA, the Brazilian Association for Adolescence). The main definitions of resilience are discussed, along with a debate on the contributions and limitations of the current literature. Furthermore, the conceptual and operative possibilities of resilience when confronted with child abuse are discussed, specifically using intra-familial sexual abuse as an example. The authors conclude that the concept of resilience presents polarization around certain axes: &quot;adaptation/overcoming process&quot;, &quot;innate/acquired&quot; &quot;permanent/circumstantial&quot;. However, they all point to a common ground: the singularity and delicacy of micro-social health-promoting relationships.<p /><p>Language: pt</p>",
