Systemic barriers and untapped potentials: A SWOT study on the implementation of natural/small water retention measures in Europe
There is strong evidence that ecosystem-based approaches, such as Natural/Small Water Retention Measures (NSWRMs) can be an important solution to problems associated with managing water quality and quantity, soil erosion, and nutrient loss. Moreover, they deliver multiple co-benefits such as increased biodiversity, climate change adaptation and mitigation, alongside aesthetic and recreational functions. However, despite their apparent advantages …
Left–right political orientation fails to explain environmental attitudes of Europeans outside Western Europe: Exploring the Moderating Role of Party Positions and Issue Salience
While conventional wisdom holds that right-wing individuals tend to present more negative attitudes toward environmental protection, McCright and colleagues find no clear relationship between political ideology and environmental attitudes in Central and Eastern Europe. The reason for this finding remains speculative. Our study expands on this phenomenon by exploring how party competition and, thereby, parties’ focus on a specific issue moderate t…
Norwegian supply chain collaboration when it is urgent to reduce food waste: The relation between efforts for good outcomes and engaging in RRI process dimensions
Food waste is a major source of avoidable greenhouse gas emissions. Responsible research and innovation (RRI) should contribute to meeting urgent challenges like climate change. This paper discusses collaborative innovations to reduce food waste and analyses this from the perspective of RRI, understood as purpose and process requirements. We study to what extent the focus on a responsible innovation outcome in Norwegian food supply chain collabor…
Complex waste management in Myanmar: Role of the actors, relationships, and social capital
Adequate waste management is a pressing global problem that undermines sustainability efforts in many countries. Controlling solid waste, recycling, and reducing waste including plastics, are essential policy objectives. This is especially relevant in countries like Myanmar, scoring poorly on waste-related indicators. This paper adopts a holistic system perspective, looking at the formal and the informal sectors’ contribution to waste collection …
Widening the scope of responsible innovation: Food waste and the role of consumers
Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI) scholars often emphasise the distributed nature of innovation, but RRI generally targets researchers or innovators (or their organisations). Can we, within an RRI approach, expect consumers to be more active innovation agents and to be held more responsible for driving innovation in the right direction? To explore this question, we studied the societal challenge of food waste. We designed a study consisti…
Norway's Food Waste Reduction Governance: From Industry Self‐Regulation to Governmental Regulation
The scale of food waste across Europe is alarming, and its reduction has recently been identified as an important public policy issue. However, effective solutions require initiative and action both from the government and the food industry. What are the drivers of industry self‐regulation in this area? We provide an in‐depth analysis of the emergence and evolution of Norway's food waste reduction governance. In 2017, food sector companies signed…
Between domestic politics and ecological crises: (De)legitimization of Polish environmentalism
While political environmentalism played an important role in social mobilization against communist regimes in Central and Eastern Europe before 1989, throughout the 1990s and early 2000s conservationism appeared to be in decline across the region, and external pressure from European institutions and Western donors influenced environmental policy. What explains the effectiveness of protest since the environmental movement emerged in the 1980s? We …

Analysing the Rospuda River controversy in Poland: Rhetoric, environmental activism, and the influence of the European Union
The paper looks at the case of a large and widely publicised environmental controversy in Poland, and asks why the authorities chose the "pro-environmental" option in the end. Taking into account the wider political and social context of the controversy, we also try to show what the role of the European Union (EU) was in that conflict. We adopt a rhetorical approach to show the discursive struggle around the environmental protection norms, as wel…
