Exploring Farmer Identity Pathways in Generational Renewal
Generational renewal is increasingly recognised as a crucial challenge for the future of agriculture. Recent literature has placed growing emphasis on the importance of farmer identity as a key dimension shaping young people's interest in agriculture, their approach to farm management and their long‐term commitment. This study contributes to the debate by proposing an analysis of generational renewal through the lens of identity theory. Specifica…
Paving the Ground for Biodiversity-Positive Transformative Change in Fashion
Biodiversity-positive transformative change requires transformations at the societal level and transitions in specific sub-systems directed at addressing the indirect drivers of biodiversity loss. Despite the recognised need to target the sectors most responsible for nature’s decline, the dynamics of biodiversity loss and biodiversity-positive transformative change in the textile, apparel, and fashion sector have never been directly studied by ac…
Between on-site and the clouds
This paper sheds light on the integration of digitalisation in multifunctional and diversified agriculture. In this empirical work based on socio-cyber-physical assemblage thinking, first we found that on-site material and immaterial conditions like living on the farm, farm settings, and creative human work still matter and deserve more attention in responsible digital agriculture. Second, in our small sample we found that internet and cloud-comp…
Characterizing value chains’ contribution to resilient and sustainable development in European mountain areas
Mountain areas have been the testbed for sustainable development models focused on balancing their vulnerability and the value of their natural, cultural, and social resources. In these areas, the continuous adaptative interaction between bio-geophysical and socio-cultural processes assembles Socio-Ecological Systems (SES) characterized by a great diversity of ecosystems and land uses, which provide substantial support for the livelihoods of moun…
Lost in a haze or playing to partners’ strengths? Learning to collaborate in three transdisciplinary European Living Labs
The ability to learn from each other plays a central role in successful transdisciplinary (TD) collaboration. This article systematically investigates how learning to collaborate allows researchers and practitioners to navigate the challenges of collaborative TD work. Drawing on social learning theory, we emphasise the processual nature of social learning in TD research as learning to collaborate. We examine collaborative learning processes in th…

Disentangling the diversity of small farm business models in Euro‐Mediterranean contexts
With growing concern for the unsustainability of food systems, the international research community has turned its attention to small farms as key actors to potentially face the global food crisis. This study aims to support a policy design that values the diversity of small farms business models vis‐à‐vis environmental, economic, social and institutional challenges affecting European farming systems. Building on the existing classification of fi…
Social innovation in high-quality agricultural systems
Social innovation and high-quality agricultural systems are important for rural development. However, there is little information on methods for measuring the process and outcome of social innovation, particularly at the regional level. This study aimed to answer the research question: Which social innovation metrics can be applied to analyze rural development at the regional level? We carried out a systematic review of the literature on factors …
Digital transformation of agriculture and rural areas
Digital technologies are often seen as an opportunity to enable sustainable futures in agriculture and rural areas. However, this digital transformation process is not inherently good as it impacts on many aspects (e.g. economic, environmental, social, technological, institutional) and their relations. The responsible research and innovation approach calls for a better understanding and anticipation of the often unknown impacts. To meet this aim …
Governing food futures
Adaptive business arrangements and the creation of social capital
European small‐scale fisheries are confronted with several challenges, notably a decrease in the number of people engaged in capture fishing, growing competition from less expensive extra‐European Union markets, rising operational costs, strict regulations and the depletion of fishing stocks. Many small‐scale fishers must adapt to change to maintain or increase their income using different business strategies. In this respect, we argue that new a…

Typology and distribution of small farms in Europe
The contribution of small farms to local food supply, food security and food sovereignty is widely acknowledged at a global level. In the particular case of Europe, they often are seen as an alternative to large and specialised farms. Assessing the real role of small farms has been limited by a lack of information, as small farms are frequently omitted from agricultural censuses and national statistics. It is also well acknowledged that small far…
Knowledge networks and their role in shaping the relations within the Agricultural Knowledge and Innovation System in the agroenergy sector. The case of biogas in Tuscany (Italy)
Acknowledging complexity in food supply chains when assessing their performance and sustainability
Reflexive Governance, Incorporating Ethics and Changing Understandings of Food Chain Performance
This article argues that ethics is a key driver of change in food chain performance. Critically, multiple stakeholder perspectives need to be understood as being legitimate when developing shared norms of what is understood by food supply chain (FSC) performance. To develop this perspective, the article examines the discourses surrounding the performance of FSCs in 12 different national contexts. It develops a multi-criteria performance matrix (M…
Urban Food Security and Landscape Change
This paper looks at cities as socio-technical systems consisting of patterns of interaction between actors, rules and artefacts. The issue of urban food security emerges as a key policy goal. This goal can be achieved through the coordination of a series of policies including territorial planning, commerce regulation, public procurement, health prevention and waste management. This paper discusses an example of how new narratives linking consumpt…
Rural Development
Both in practice and policy a new model of rural development is emerging. This paper reflects the discussions in the impact research programme and suggests that at the level of associated theory also a fundamental shift is taking place. The modernization paradigm that once dominated policy, practice and theory is being replaced by a new rural development paradigm. Rural development is analyzed as a multi-level, multi-actor and multi-facetted proc…

Local food and alternative food networks
Cet article propose de développer un cadre d'analyse fondé sur le pouvoir ' transformationnel ' des produits locaux, afin d'interpréter, et de supporter, la mise en place de stratégies de relocalisation alimentaire. Dans un premier temps nous présenterons un modèle sémiotique, servant de base à l'analyse de la qualité des produits alimentaires, et permettant d'interpréter les changements qui apparaissent quand les produits alimentaires acquièrent…
Synergy and Coherence through Collective Action
A wine route can be seen as a network established around the theme of wine. The impressive economic impact that the establishment of the Costa degli Etruschi wine route has had on the farms involved is traced back in this article to the collective action that produces synergies and coherence. Synergies can be defined as linkages between two or more entities, whose joint effort produces quantitatively and qualitatively higher effects than those pr…

Towards a Better Conceptual Framework for Innovation Processes in Agriculture and Rural Development
The role of farming previously dedicated mainly to food production changed with an increasing recognition of the multifunctionality of agriculture and rural areas. It seems obvious to expect that farmers and rural actors adapt themselves to these new conditions, which are innovative and redefine their job. In many regions farmers can increase their income basis as rural entrepreneurs, developing new services and exploring new markets. Often, howe…
Consumatori consapevoli e sviluppo sostenibile
This paper offers a contribution to the analysis of the processes of transition of the food systems, that are sustained by the innovations introduced by reflexive consumers. After reviewing the literature on consumption as driver of change, the authors propose to explain consumption models and consumers' identities in the Summaries framework of innovation theories. The analysis is applied on consumers solidarity purchasing groups. Their innovativ…

On the New Social Relations around and beyond Food. Analysing Consumers' Role and Action in Gruppi di Acquisto Solidale (Solidarity Purchasing Groups)
This article aims at analysing the features and the dynamics of those alternative agri‐food networks in which consumers act as initiators. Drawing on a survey of ongoing initiatives at national level and on evidence from empirical fieldwork in a specific territorial context showing a variegated and dynamic reality at this regard (Tuscany), the article analyses consumers' evolving attitudes and behaviour, around and even beyond food, unfolding dur…
