Over the past ten years, it has become increasingly evident, that a more elaborate geographical perspective on sustainability transitions is needed. Many of today’s grand challenges transcend the boundaries of specific cities, regions, or nations and translocal/transnational spatial relationships and multi-scalar dynamics play a significant role in shaping transition trajectories and possibilities. At the same time, places differ in their structural preconditions and the capacity to engage in experimenting with radically new socio-technical configurations. Where and how transitions unfold depends on change dynamics that co-evolve between (and have impacts on) various places around the world in spatially complex and uneven ways.
The thematic group foster dialogue on emerging research streams comprising (but not limited to):
- Developing a multi-scalar take on key transition concepts like technological innovation systems, niche experimentation, or socio-technical regimes
- Understanding the context-specific structural conditions and dynamics that enable/constrain ‘green’ path development in cities, regions, and countries
- Elucidating the place-making politics and the spatially unequal impacts of sustainability transitions
- Understanding how transition and green innovation dynamics co-evolve between different regions of the world, and especially between developed, emerging and developing economies
