Following the Circular Economy in European rural municipalities through the Spanish Urban Agenda
The Circular Economy (CE) is a driver of change and regeneration at a global level, and especially for rural areas. However, there is a missing link regarding the CE in municipalities, i.e. at the macro level encompassing the built environment, which is even more pronounced concerning rural environments as a result of an existing scientific literature primarily focused on large cities. The present paper addresses these issues by means of parallel analysis of two key research axes targeting, on the one hand, the concept of CE tailored to the field of study of the built environment and, on the other hand, the implementation of CE in European rural areas. The former puts forth an adapted definition of CE, while the latter generates a database tool for CE strategies based on benchmark CE and sustainability databases, relying on the case study strategy adopted: the Spanish Urban Agenda. This analysis allows for a broader relevance of findings, as it can be extrapolated to other international official documents, on top of illustrating the CE decision-making process applied to municipalities and its respective strategy selection.
期刊介绍:
Ecological Economics is concerned with extending and integrating the understanding of the interfaces and interplay between "nature''s household" (ecosystems) and "humanity''s household" (the economy). Ecological economics is an interdisciplinary field defined by a set of concrete problems or challenges related to governing economic activity in a way that promotes human well-being, sustainability, and justice. The journal thus emphasizes critical work that draws on and integrates elements of ecological science, economics, and the analysis of values, behaviors, cultural practices, institutional structures, and societal dynamics. The journal is transdisciplinary in spirit and methodologically open, drawing on the insights offered by a variety of intellectual traditions, and appealing to a diverse readership.
Specific research areas covered include: valuation of natural resources, sustainable agriculture and development, ecologically integrated technology, integrated ecologic-economic modelling at scales from local to regional to global, implications of thermodynamics for economics and ecology, renewable resource management and conservation, critical assessments of the basic assumptions underlying current economic and ecological paradigms and the implications of alternative assumptions, economic and ecological consequences of genetically engineered organisms, and gene pool inventory and management, alternative principles for valuing natural wealth, integrating natural resources and environmental services into national income and wealth accounts, methods of implementing efficient environmental policies, case studies of economic-ecologic conflict or harmony, etc. New issues in this area are rapidly emerging and will find a ready forum in Ecological Economics.
