Agrivoltaics
Agrivoltaics is a technological package that has attracted considerable interest as it appears to combine agriculture and the energy transition (win-win configuration). However, several critical issues remain, not least because of local opposition to this type of installation. Drawing on a framework inspired by radical new institutionalism, the start-up phase of this technological package is analysed in Italy. The positioning of the various actor…
Ethics in practice
The energy transition involves value-laden choices and moral dilemmas that can reproduce or reshape inequalities. Beyond environmental justice, questions of individual and collective responsibility are central to social science debates. This article aims to contribute to the literature on energy ethics by advancing a pragmatist sociological perspective and by clarifying how ethical meanings and justifications are enacted within energy transition …
Doing ownership’ in sustainable energy innovation
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…
Controvento
Con "populismo energetico" ci si riferisce generalmente alla connessione tra le proteste locali contro le green energy policy e il crescente consenso elettorale verso i movimenti "populisti" in particolare nelle aree rurali e marginali. L'articolo indaga il fenomeno attraverso una ricerca qualitativa sull'eolica in Basilicata. I dati mostrano la complessità e l'ambiguità del populismo energetico suggerendo come questi sia alimentato da un deficit…
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 …
Wild Wind, Social Storm
The literature has often used the term “populism” as a sensitizing concept to inquire the increasing relevance of right‐wing political organizations in Western countries, specifically in rural areas and marginalized territories (e.g., deindustrialized districts). The spread of populism appears as a consequence of the multidimensional failure of globalized neoliberal capitalist promises of prosperity. In this frame, the current climate agenda is c…
Ecopreneurs, rural development and alternative socio-technical arrangements for community renewable energy
Education as a Resource of Social Innovation
Focusing on the Italian context, this research aims to analyze the relationship between investment in education and economic development through a critical exam of the human capital theory. This paradigm is compared with the social investment paradigm, particularly the Esping-Andersen’s thesis, which seems more useful to unfold the link between social stratification and education level as a resource of social innovation. From this standpoint, our…
Performative connections
Italian policies in the field of sustainable energy transition have supported mainly the deployment of large-sized renewable energy plants. At the same time the transition was fostered also through small or medium plants and in rural and mountain areas. In this paper we present the case study of Sasso di Castalda, a little mountain municipality located in the Basilicata region (Southern Italy), one of the poorest and the most sparsely populated a…
