Expanding use of space is an opportunity for sustainability but a threat to resilience
Green and digital transition policies that increasingly rely on satellites and the utilization of the near-Earth space contain an overlooked contradiction between sustainability and resilience: although satellite services increase sustainability on Earth by accelerating green and digital transition, the use of space renders the green and digital infrastructures vulnerable to space weather events. We show that an extreme near-Earth space event may…
Disjointed modes of building resilience to socio-environmental crises
Socio-environmental crises are bound to worsen and bring about unprecedented uncertainties regarding their anticipation and management. We studied how public organizations in Finland build resilience to such crises (that is, the capacity needed to deal with and recover from disruptions) and how and why their efforts appear dysfunctional in the face of worsening crises. Our data-driven qualitative analysis draws on interviews with 58 experts in Fi…
Coming to grips with scientific ignorance in the governance of endocrine disrupting chemicals and nanoparticles
Governing the Interplay between Industrial Ecosystems and Environmental Regulation
Many scholars of industrial ecology have focused on the institutional and organizational challenges of building and maintaining regional industrial symbiosis through the synergistic integration of material and energy flows. Despite the promise that these intellectual developments hold for the future dematerialization of industrial production, they rarely address the actual regulatory obstacles of turning wastes into raw materials. In this article…
Analyzing interdisciplinarity
From groundless universalism to grounded generalism
Crossing Boundaries
Evolutionary Economics (EE), Social Construction of Technology (SCOT) and Actor-Network Theory (ANT) are often seen in literature on technology as alternative ways of accounting for technological change. Superficially they seem to exclude each other because of contradictory understandings of how technology changes, but in this paper we argue that there are connections between the approaches and that they complement each other in important ways. A…
Eco-efficiency as abandonment of nature
Introduction
(1999). Introduction: Acta Borealia special issue on research at the Arctic Centre. Acta Borealia: Vol. 16, No. 2, pp. 3-6
Human environmental interactions in Upper Lapland, Finland
The paper outlines strategies for participatory research by comparing the results of a participatory workshop on research needs in human‐environmental interaction in Finnish Lapland with an analysis of official Finnish policy documents on the same subject. The workshop was organized in Anár/Inari, Finland in October 1997 as part of the Human Environmental Interactions theme (HEI) of the European Commission's Arctic‐Alpine Terrestrial Ecosystems R…
Corporatism as an impediment to ecological sustenance
