Abstract
“Resistance Revisited” is a short and very readable paper by Steve de Shazer in which he describes the story of the original paper “Death of resistance” (de Shazer, 1984) and gives some really valuable clues on the construction of useful theories. Actually, if you substitute “resistance” in this paper with any exemplar of a not-so-useful reified concept like “motivation” or “change”, you’d have a good idea what to do with it and whether to continue using it. “Resistance revisited” is a much clearer and easier read than the original paper and a very valuable resource.
