Sustainable Healthy Diet Transitions
The role of diet in individual and planetary health is increasingly scrutinised as consumers are encouraged to make food choices that balance health and sustainability, particularly with beef. While prior research has considered reduction from the perspective of alternate product acceptance, the social context of beef is less understood. Media plays a crucial role in shaping narratives concerning beef's future in agri‐food systems, influencing co…
Artisan food consumption and the moral identity projects of ethically ambivalent consumers
Purpose This study investigates ethically ambivalent consumers (EACs) – consumers who experience conflicting orientations towards ethical consumption due to structural marketplace contradictions, a substantial yet neglected segment. Drawing from the sociological ambivalence theory, it examines how EACs construct moral identity projects (MIPs) through artisan food consumption, challenging the ethical/mainstream consumer dichotomy that dominates cu…
A tech-tonic shift
The Covid-19 pandemic catalysed significant transformations in higher education, prominently manifesting through the accelerated adoption of Technology-Enabled Learning (TEL). This shift not only redefined pedagogical practices but also significantly impacted the teaching-orientated identity work of academics. This study explores the repercussions of TEL on academic identity within the post-pandemic educational landscape, moving beyond the confin…
The return of the researcher
Purpose The aim of this paper is to advance understanding of the methodological challenges involved in conducting a “follow-up” study. This article provides reflections on the reality of conducting such studies, documenting the researcher’s personal experiences and reflections on returning to interview the same sample of leaders over a 24-year period. Design/methodology/approach The empirical foundation is based on the lead author’s personal expe…
Exploring the roles of motivation and cognition in label-usage using a combined eye-tracking and retrospective think aloud approach
QCA is of questionable value for policy research
Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA) has been championed as a valuable tool for public policy research. Focusing on the field of policy evaluation, this research note assesses QCA by comparing research that uses this method to studies based on standard practices for quantitative policy analysis. While attention is centrally focused on causal inference, questions of measurement are also addressed. The analysis suggests that QCA adds little value…
