Abstract

State-controlled resources are scarce but crucial for niche support and regime reproduction. Thus, both niche and regime actors are continuously seeking to influence actors holding state power to secure favorable policies and resource allocations. To further the knowledge of this process, this article presents a conceptual framework that elucidates how policies are implicitly negotiated between actors at the niche and regime levels. Using data from the ongoing solar PV –Photovoltaics– rollout in Portugal, the influence strategies of grassroots and commercial energy niches are analyzed together with those of the main incumbent. Integrating insights from transition studies and the policymaking literature, this framework explores the relational aspects of actor agency and anticipation effects, elucidating the indirect forms of influence strategies that niche- and regime-level actors and coalitions use, which entail leveraging the accountability of policymakers towards citizens.

利基-制度互动中的隐性谈判:转型研究中代理、问责和预期的关系问题
国家控制的资源虽然稀缺,但对小众支持和政权繁衍却至关重要。因此,利基和政权行动者都在不断寻求影响掌握国家权力的行动者,以确保有利的政策和资源分配。为了进一步了解这一过程,本文提出了一个概念框架,以阐明政策是如何在利基和制度层面的参与者之间进行隐性谈判的。文章利用葡萄牙正在进行的太阳能光伏发电项目的数据,分析了基层和商业能源利基的影响策略以及主要执政者的影响策略。该框架综合了转型研究和政策制定文献的观点,探讨了行为者代理和预期效应的关系方面,阐明了利基和制度层面的行为者和联盟所使用的间接形式的影响策略,这需要利用政策制定者对公民的问责制。

期刊介绍: Environmental Innovation and Societal Transitions serves as a platform for reporting studies on innovations and socio-economic transitions aimed at fostering an environmentally sustainable economy, thereby addressing structural resource scarcity and environmental challenges, particularly those associated with fossil energy use and climate change. The journal focuses on various forms of innovation, including technological, organizational, economic, institutional, and political, as well as economy-wide and sectoral changes in areas such as energy, transport, agriculture, and water management. It endeavors to tackle complex questions concerning social, economic, behavioral-psychological, and political barriers and opportunities, along with their intricate interactions. With a multidisciplinary approach and methodological openness, the journal welcomes contributions from a wide array of disciplines within the social, environmental, and innovation sciences.
