Transforming Innovation Systems
Amid escalating global crises and growing demands for sustainability transitions, innovation systems (IS) research has undergone a “normative turn,” shifting the focus of research toward addressing complex societal challenges. This paper compares three approaches that have emerged in response to this shift: Dedicated Innovation Systems (DIS), Mission‐Oriented Innovation Systems (MIS), and Challenge‐Oriented Regional Innovation Systems (CORIS). We…
From farm to table
Given the complex nature of agri-food value chains and related sustainability challenges, the question arises who has the agency and responsibility to address these challenges and facilitate systemic change. We address this question through a mixed method approach and examine experiences with agriculture among different actors along the agricultural value chains in Germany. Based on this, we explore how various actors make sense of current agri-f…
Core design principles for just sustainability transitions
Transformative research is crucial for orienting, scaling, and accelerating just sustainability transitions (JUSTRAs), which have become a growing priority in sustainability science and policy. This paper addresses the challenge of organizing productive transformative research initiatives by adapting Elinor Ostrom’s Core Design Principles (CDPs) for organizing sustainable collective action. We present a modular framework that illustrates how the …
Breaking the chain with individual gain? Investigating the moral intensity of Covid-19 digital contact tracing
Crisis-driven innovation and fundamental human needs
As a microcosm for future challenges, the COVID-19 pandemic exhibits increasingly transboundary dynamics, causing interconnected problems across multiple societal systems. To examine the role of innovations as a social mechanism to reconcile these arising challenges, we view the unfolding of the pandemic through the lens of a content analysis of 707 innovation projects that address the fundamental human needs of consumers and businesses. This stu…

Time to Say ‘Good Buy’ to the Passive Consumer? A Conceptual Review of the Consumer in the Bioeconomy
Successful transitions to a sustainable bioeconomy require novel technologies, processes, and practices as well as a general agreement about the overarching normative direction of innovation. Both requirements necessarily involve collective action by those individuals who purchase, use, and co-produce novelties: the consumers. Based on theoretical considerations borrowed from evolutionary innovation economics and consumer social responsibility, w…
Quo Vadis, Bioeconomy? the Necessity of Normative Considerations in the Transition
This collection of papers builds on the idea that the bioeconomy provides a framework for potentially effective solutions addressing the grand global challenges by a turn towards an increased use of biological resources, towards renewability and circularity. Consequently, it cannot be perceived as an end in itself. Thus, innovative endeavors within this bioeconomy framework require a serious examination of their normative premises and implication…
Systems entrepreneurship
In this paper, we explore the notion of systems entrepreneurship in the context of innovation systems (IS) dedicated to transformations towards sustainability. To this end, our paper draws primarily but not exclusively on the leverage points concept, which was originally proposed by Donella H. Meadows and recently refined by sustainability scientists. More precisely, we flesh out four general propositions about the systems entrepreneurial process…
Innovation Systems for Transformations towards Sustainability? Taking the Normative Dimension Seriously
The aim of this article is to complement research on transformations towards sustainability by drawing upon the innovation systems (IS) framework. The IS framework already serves as a suitable and influential basis for research on processes of technological innovation and economic change. We argue that improving the capacity of an IS framework for dealing with wicked problems and the normative complexity of sustainability requires a fundamental p…
