Doing gender in energy communities: A gendered perspective on barriers and motivators 在能源社区开展性别工作:从性别角度看障碍和动力
IF 5.7 2区 经济学 Q1 ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES Pub Date : 2024-09-07 DOI: 10.1016/j.eist.2024.100902

In the transition to a renewable energy system, the European Union champions community-based initiatives like energy communities to promote decarbonization as well as broader societal benefits. Despite these goals, there is a marked underrepresentation of women in energy communities. In 15 qualitative interviews with experts in community-led energy organizations mainly from Germany, our study addresses women specific barriers for participation. The modal organizational setup poses barriers in terms of existing male overrepresentation, technical knowledge as entry requirement, a focus on financial investment, heavy and inflexible time requirements, and the lack of social integration of energy communities. Organizational realities align little with women`s motivators for participation, which encompass environmental enthusiasm and social engagement. The nature of the discovered barriers is compatible with the concept of "doing gender", where malleable, socially constructed organizational arrangements perpetuate traditional gender roles and thereby hierarchies.

在向可再生能源系统过渡的过程中,欧盟倡导能源社区等以社区为基础的倡议,以促进去碳化和更广泛的社会效益。尽管有这些目标,但妇女在能源社区中的代表性明显不足。我们的研究通过对主要来自德国的社区能源组织专家进行 15 次定性访谈,探讨了妇女参与的具体障碍。现有的男性比例过高、技术知识是入门要求、注重资金投入、繁重而缺乏灵活性的时间要求,以及能源社区缺乏社会融合等方面的组织模式设置构成了障碍。组织现实与妇女的参与动机几乎不一致,后者包括对环境的热情和社会参与。已发现的障碍的性质与 "性别问题 "的概念相吻合,在这种情况下,可塑的、社会构建的组织安排使传统的性别角色和等级制度永久化。

Understanding circular city policies as a discontinuation strategy: Policy insights from circular construction 将循环型城市政策理解为一种终止战略:循环型建筑的政策启示
IF 5.7 2区 经济学 Q1 ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES Pub Date : 2024-09-01 DOI: 10.1016/j.eist.2024.100897

This policy brief encourages urban policymakers to embrace a stronger circular economy (CE) ambition by applying discontinuation policies. While discontinuation already plays a major role in sectors such as energy, cities have so far mainly focussed on supporting innovations in the CE transition. Using circular construction as an example, this policy brief demonstrates how to apply informational, economic, contractual, regulatory, and ownership-based policy instruments for discontinuation to improve the resource efficiency of urban built environments. Finally, we provide specific policy recommendations for developing an urban discontinuation strategy for circular construction.

本政策简报鼓励城市决策者通过实施停产政策来实现更强的循环经济(CE)目标。虽然停产在能源等行业已经发挥了重要作用,但城市迄今为止主要侧重于支持循环经济转型中的创新。本政策简报以循环型建筑为例,展示了如何运用信息、经济、合同、监管和所有权等政策工具来终止生产,从而提高城市建筑环境的资源效率。最后,我们为制定循环建筑的城市终止战略提供了具体的政策建议。

Regioning mission-oriented innovation policy: The articulation of directionality between federal and regional arenas in the German High-Tech Strategy 以任务为导向的创新政策区域化:德国高科技战略》中联邦与地区之间方向性的衔接
IF 5.7 2区 经济学 Q1 ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES Pub Date : 2024-08-28 DOI: 10.1016/j.eist.2024.100899

Mission-oriented innovation policies (MOIP) do not operate in a vacuum. How missions align with innovation actors, infrastructures and discourses in regional contexts is an ongoing discussion. In this paper, we draw on the case of regional dialogues that aspired to facilitate exchange and learning for the missions of Germany's High-Tech Strategy (HTS). We examine the interactional process of 'regioning' MOIP that draws in diverse publics and concerns, ultimately aiming to create institutional arenas where actors from different levels and scales come together to make sense of missions. More than being explicit objects of innovation policy, regions understood through regioning are an implicit practice of policy. By moving missions between federal and regional arenas, involved actors shape a political space for articulating the directionality of innovation policy.

以使命为导向的创新政策(MOIP)并非在真空中运作。任务如何与区域背景下的创新参与者、基础设施和论述相协调是一个持续的讨论。在本文中,我们借鉴了旨在促进德国高科技战略(HTS)任务交流与学习的区域对话案例。我们研究了 "区域化 "MOIP 的互动过程,该过程吸引了不同的公众和关注点,最终旨在创建一个机构舞台,让来自不同层面和规模的参与者汇聚一堂,共同理解使命。通过地区化理解的地区不仅是创新政策的明确对象,也是政策的隐性实践。通过在联邦和地区之间调动使命,参与其中的行动者塑造了一个阐明创新政策方向性的政治空间。

From niche support to system building—Perceptions of the transformation potential of policy measures on packaging reuse 从利基支持到系统建设--对包装再利用政策措施转型潜力的看法
IF 5.7 2区 经济学 Q1 ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES Pub Date : 2024-08-23 DOI: 10.1016/j.eist.2024.100896

Reuse is suggested as a strategy to reduce mounting single-use packaging consumption and the related pollution. In this exploratory study, we investigated how governance can create conditions for the uptake of reusable food packaging in Finland when phasing out the existing single use system is not viable. We identified policy instruments addressing packaging reuse and analyzed how key stakeholders perceive the ability of these instruments to induce systemic change. The results indicate that the current policy mix entails mainly niche support measures and that its transformational power is relatively weak; to strengthen it, further measures on single use regime destabilization should be jointly implemented with reuse system building and niche support. However, addressing all three simultaneously may create tensions between different instruments within a policy mix or between policy mixes targeting separate goals. This requires paying more attention to directionality, policy coherence, consistence, and congruence when designing transformative policy mixes.

重复使用被认为是减少一次性包装消耗和相关污染的一种策略。在这项探索性研究中,我们调查了在芬兰,当逐步淘汰现有的一次性使用系统不可行时,政府如何为可重复使用食品包装的采用创造条件。我们确定了针对包装再利用的政策工具,并分析了主要利益相关者如何看待这些工具引发系统性变革的能力。研究结果表明,当前的政策组合主要包括利基支持措施,其变革能力相对较弱;为加强政策组合,应在建立再利用系统和利基支持的基础上,进一步采取破坏单一使用制度稳定的措施。然而,同时解决这三个问题可能会造成政策组合中不同工具之间或针对不同目标的政策组合之间的紧张关系。这就要求在设计变革性政策组合时,更多地关注方向性、政策连贯性、一致性和协调性。

Do transformer missions redirect values of mission-oriented projects? The case of the EU mission ‘Restore our Ocean and Waters’ 转型使命是否会重新引导以使命为导向的项目的价值观?欧盟 "恢复我们的海洋和水域 "任务的案例
IF 5.7 2区 经济学 Q1 ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES Pub Date : 2024-08-22 DOI: 10.1016/j.eist.2024.100894

Transformative mission-oriented innovation policy aims to redirect innovation, but evidence of this directional ability is limited. This paper examines whether transformer missions redirect values reflected by mission-oriented projects. We study the EU Mission ‘Restore our Ocean and Waters’ and use probabilistic topic modelling and thematic analyses to identify, conceptualize, and compare latent values described in 17 policy documents (i.e., strategic layer), 37 mission-oriented projects, and 809 mission-relevant projects (i.e., operational layer). We map how these values changed during the mission launch. The results of this study are ambivalent. On the one hand, the mission launch corresponds with an increase of funded projects of which mission-oriented projects commonly frame efforts towards mission objectives. On the other hand, there is a misalignment between policy and project-level values while the prevalence of project-level values remained largely unaffected by the mission. These mixed results provide a more nuanced understanding of transformer missions’ directional abilities.

以变革使命为导向的创新政策旨在重新引导创新,但这种引导能力的证据却很有限。本文探讨了转型使命是否会重新引导以使命为导向的项目所反映的价值观。我们研究了欧盟的 "恢复我们的海洋和水域 "任务,并使用概率主题建模和主题分析来识别、概念化和比较 17 份政策文件(即战略层)、37 个任务导向项目和 809 个任务相关项目(即操作层)中描述的潜在价值观。我们绘制了这些价值观在任务启动过程中的变化图。这项研究的结果是矛盾的。一方面,任务启动意味着受资助项目的增加,其中以任务为导向的项目通常为实现任务目标而努力。另一方面,政策和项目层面的价值观不一致,而项目层面的价值观的普遍性基本不受特派团的影响。这些喜忧参半的结果使我们对转型特派团的指导能力有了更细致的了解。

Get organized? Creating an organizational context for civil society activities in urban sustainability transitions 组织起来?在城市可持续性转型中为民间社会活动创造组织环境
IF 5.7 2区 经济学 Q1 ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES Pub Date : 2024-08-21 DOI: 10.1016/j.eist.2024.100889

The paper addresses tensions in organizing civil society activities in urban sustainability transitions. It argues that these activities need focus to be impactful while also demanding flexibility to remain adaptive. The latter can hardly be achieved by individual organizations alone but requires closer examination of the ecology of organizations in which civil society actors operate. This paper contributes to the literature on the governance of urban sustainability by systematically analyzing this organizational context and its long-term dynamics. Adopting a neo-institutional lens, the paper scrutinizes civil society activities with the ‘institutional work’ approach and sheds light on how the organizational context enables changes therein. The longitudinal case study of the Local Agenda 21 in Augsburg reveals, via a mixed-method approach, how civil society actors navigate tensions by altering their organizational context. Increasing its diversity and complexity in a bottom-up process allowed them to engage in more transformative work.

本文探讨了在城市可持续性转型过程中组织民间社会活动所面临的紧张关系。它认为,这些活动需要集中精力才能产生影响,同时也需要灵活性以保持适应性。后者仅靠单个组织很难实现,需要对民间社会行动者所处的组织生态进行更深入的研究。本文通过系统分析这种组织环境及其长期动态,为有关城市可持续性治理的文献做出了贡献。本文采用新制度视角,以 "制度工作 "的方法审视公民社会的活动,并揭示了组织环境如何促成其中的变化。通过对奥格斯堡 "地方 21 世纪议程 "的纵向案例研究,采用混合方法揭示了民间社会行动者如何通过改变其组织环境来应对紧张局势。在一个自下而上的过程中增加其多样性和复杂性,使他们能够从事更具变革性的工作。

Transformative social innovation in, of and by the city: Beyond mission-driven policy rationales 在城市、属于城市、由城市进行变革性社会创新:超越使命驱动的政策理由
IF 5.7 2区 经济学 Q1 ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES Pub Date : 2024-08-20 DOI: 10.1016/j.eist.2024.100890

Transformative social innovation policy encompasses more than the idea that policy defines directions about the expected outcomes of innovation. It also promotes new forms of governance and rationales based on more intersectional and decentralized processes of innovation. Such policy has thus to be studied primarily as a perpetual process of redefinition, rather than as an end in itself to achieve societal missions.

Through an examination of the ‘G'innove’ program implemented by the City of Geneva, we explore how a new social innovation policy can stimulate new types of innovation projects in the city, how these projects can change the established policy rationales of the city, and how innovation policy and policy innovation intertwine in the transformation of society by the city. Beyond this exemplary policy, we attempt to propose complementarities between transformations in, of and by the city in order to promote new policy agendas and rethink their underlying rationales.

变革性社会创新政策不仅包括政策确定创新预期成果方向的理念。它还在更具交叉性和分散性的创新过程的基础上,促进新形式的治理和理由。通过对日内瓦市实施的 "G'innove "计划的研究,我们探讨了新的社会创新政策如何激励城市中的新型创新项目,这些项目如何改变城市既定的政策原理,以及创新政策和政策创新如何在城市的社会转型中相互交织。除了这一示范性政策之外,我们还试图提出城市变革、城市的变革和城市变革之间的互补性,以促进新的政策议程并重新思考其基本原理。

Lessons from European transformative policies 欧洲转型政策的经验教训
IF 5.7 2区 经济学 Q1 ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES Pub Date : 2024-08-20 DOI: 10.1016/j.eist.2024.100895

In order to reach climate neutrality by 2050 the EU needs to overcome challenges relating to accelerating innovation, creating infrastructure, redirecting investments, and fostering cross-sectoral integration. In this policy brief, we present key policy lessons relating to these four challenges based on seven case studies on transformative policies from the period 2005–2022 in different EU countries. Two themes reappear in many of our lessons. First, policies could be improved if a holistic approach to innovation was taken, with policymakers considering how new (innovative) technologies substitute (or phaseout) old technologies. Second, rather than trying to incentivize firms or citizens through monetary returns, governments could make progress towards climate neutrality by reducing the efforts required from firms and citizens to participate in the carbon neutrality transition, e.g., reducing administrative burdens.

为了到 2050 年实现气候中和,欧盟需要克服与加速创新、创建基础设施、调整投资方向和促进跨部门整合有关的挑战。在本政策简报中,我们根据 2005-2022 年期间不同欧盟国家的七个转型政策案例研究,介绍了与这四项挑战相关的主要政策经验。在我们的许多经验教训中,有两个主题再次出现。首先,如果对创新采取整体方法,让决策者考虑新(创新)技术如何替代(或淘汰)旧技术,政策就能得到改进。其次,与其试图通过货币回报来激励企业或公民,政府可以通过减少企业和公民参与碳中和转型所需的努力(如减少行政负担)来实现气候中和。

Household niche experimentation in sustainability transitions and everyday life: A novel framework with evidence from low-waste living in Melbourne 可持续性转型和日常生活中的家庭利基实验:以墨尔本低废物生活为证据的新框架
IF 5.7 2区 经济学 Q1 ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES Pub Date : 2024-08-11 DOI: 10.1016/j.eist.2024.100893

Sustainability transitions research and policy treat households and the home in a narrow way. The paper reviews niche-based experimentation and social-practice theory informed sustainability transitions literature to develop a novel framework for deliberate household experimentation. The usefulness of the framework is explored in an action research project on low-waste living in Melbourne. Data was collected through interviews, weekly self-reports and three participatory workshops.

可持续发展转型研究和政策以狭隘的方式对待家庭和住宅。本文回顾了基于利基实验和社会实践理论的可持续性转型文献,为有意识的家庭实验制定了一个新的框架。该框架的实用性在墨尔本低废物生活行动研究项目中进行了探讨。数据是通过访谈、每周自我报告和三次参与式研讨会收集的。研究证实了该框架的实用性,并对有意识的家庭实验进行了反思。结论是,与其他利基空间类似,家庭利基在展示、学习、倡导和批判可持续发展转型的不同方面发挥着重要作用。但与其他利基空间不同的是,家庭深深扎根于人们日常生活中。如果要成功过渡到低废物生活,就需要从家庭日常生活的角度进行规划。

Using energy vulnerability framework to understand household agency in sustainability transitions: Experiences from Canada and Finland 利用能源脆弱性框架了解可持续性转型中的家庭代理:加拿大和芬兰的经验
IF 5.7 2区 经济学 Q1 ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES Pub Date : 2024-08-10 DOI: 10.1016/j.eist.2024.100892

Sustainability transitions research is increasingly engaged with the complexities of justice and equitability. In housing, policy lock-ins and infrastructural inequalities expose people to volatile energy markets, energy poverty and climate impacts. These problems have often been dealt with reactively, without resolving their underlying systemic and structural causes. We examine household energy vulnerabilities, their exposure and sensitivity to certain risks, and what their adaptive capacity is in navigating those. Based on qualitative case studies of social housing in Canada and housing cooperatives in Finland, we show that interconnected exposures and sensitivities to risks are contextual. This can lead to energy vulnerability, further triggered by changes in policies, energy markets and the environment. In Canada, neglected housing maintenance causes exposure, while in Finland, policy utilizing bottom-up action does not always strengthen household agency, especially for vulnerable households. We call for more empirical studies on household energy vulnerability in different contexts.

可持续性转型研究越来越多地涉及公正和公平的复杂性。在住房方面,政策锁定和基础设施不平等使人们面临能源市场波动、能源贫困和气候影响。这些问题往往是被动应对,没有解决其背后的系统性和结构性原因。我们研究了家庭的能源脆弱性、他们对某些风险的暴露程度和敏感性,以及他们在应对这些风险时的适应能力。基于对加拿大社会住房和芬兰住房合作社的定性案例研究,我们表明,相互关联的风险暴露和对风险的敏感性是因环境而异的。这可能导致能源脆弱性,而政策、能源市场和环境的变化又会进一步引发这种脆弱性。在加拿大,忽视住房维护会导致风险暴露,而在芬兰,利用自下而上行动的政策并不总能加强家庭的能动性,尤其是对弱势家庭而言。我们呼吁对不同情况下的家庭能源脆弱性进行更多的实证研究。
