The paper discusses the increasing use of term agroecology in scientific literature and how its meanings vary different contexts. However, key issue is not understandings per se, but whether various interpretations align with intrinsic systemic transformative meaning. To address this, presents an integrative framework to assess approaches that agroecology, distinguish between enabling disabling interpretations. applied yield- non-yield-oriented (sustainable intensification, conservation agriculture, organic farming regenerative farming), revealing concerns hijacking or co-opting through (1) simplification, (2) false equivalence (3) confusion. prevent and/or respond – necessarily intentional - process neutralization potential we propose a combination accountability regulatory efforts, education collaboration protect integrity principles it represents as well ensure just contribution for (re-)shaping agri-food systems.

Limiting global warming to 1.5 °C is crucial prevent the worst effects of climate change. This entails also decarbonization aviation sector, which considered be a "hard-to-abate" sector and thus requires special attention regarding its sustainability transition. However, transition pathways potentially climate-neutral are unclear, with different stakeholders having diverse imaginations sector's future. paper aims analyze socio-technical imaginaries aviation, as perceptions various on this issue have not been sufficiently explored so far. In that sense, work contributes current scientific debate energy transitions, for first time studying case sector. Drawing six reports composed by interest groups (e.g. industry, academia, environmental associations), three were explored, following process thematic analysis: rethinking travel behavioral change (travel innovation), radical modernization technological progress (fleet alternative fuels renewable sources (fuel innovation). The results reveal how partly conflicting co-produced emergence enforceability these influenced situatedness their creators, indicating raises political issues. Essentially, act driver change, policymakers should acknowledge existence counter-hegemonic visions, created actors from civil society settings take an inclusive equitable approach implementing towards aviation.

Over the last decade, various governments and supranational bodies have promoted development of a circular bioeconomy (CBE) as response to sustainability challenges. The transition towards CBE requires collaboration different actors in innovation (eco)system. With this conceptual paper, we apply business model lens address research question: “What are archetypical roles consumers innovations for sustainable CBE?” We use combination complementary theories from economy literature, evolutionary economics, transitions research, work on active consumers. Considering consumers’ agency continuum between manufacturer-active paradigm consumer-active paradigm, propose: (i) can actively influence models with their purchase decision; (ii) act lobbyists influencers innovation; (iii) customer, user, repairer, reseller, incentivize organizations adapt needs; (iv) become key partners process defining normative orientation CBE; (v) co-create value by means co-ownership (e.g., through platform cooperatives).

Livestock farmers, as incumbents, face pressures to transition toward sustainability. We study these actors' role in this process, particularly their in/ability contribute endogenous institutional change. Our entails an interview-based single case with farmers based on theory. find "partaking" be the likely form of change, incumbents predominantly rely routine and sensemaking agency. They externalize locale change other actors whom they expect framework conditions. However, we contrasting examples that may drive livestock farming. also discuss incumbents' ambivalent embedded agency processes. "Strategic agency" ability imagine alternatives are important aspects for perceiving transitions. Hence, recommend regional policy-makers agents work create alternative imaginations farming restructive affective power disrupt existing practices structures.

Bioeconomy policies claim to contribute socio-ecological transformations and decreasing rural-urban inequalities. Based on examples of four bioeconomies in rural Europe, we argue that contrary these claims, such date have not de-escalated existing social conflicts but instead often further contributed polarization tendencies. To live up those proclaimed goals, bioeconomy research policy need deprioritize economic growth turn more comprehensive considerations contexts the integration local population alternative practices.

Abstract After genetically engineered Bt cotton lost its effectiveness in central and southern Indian states, pink bollworm infestations have recently returned to farmers’ fields substantially shifted their vulnerability context. We conceive as a neoliberal technology that is built protect farmers only temporarily from Lepidopteran pests while ultimately driving the further concentration of capital. Based on data representative survey three major cotton-producing districts state Telangana (n = 457), we find pest are shock lead severe losses yield income. Using concept framework, embed our findings political-economic context by drawing Harvey’s notion accumulation dispossession. argue includes an inherent sociobiological obsolescence results systematic dispossession resource-poor households providing appropriation opportunities for other actors. Finally, reproduced hegemonic structures facilitate capital through redistribution assets bottom top agricultural sector. Claims considered pro-poor were thus flawed outset.
