Entangling abilities and supporting environments
This paper investigates the conditions under which organisations take on the role of system entangler, fostering interaction between multiple sociotechnical systems. While prior research has identified various organisations in this role, the reasons some adopt it while others assume other roles remain unclear. Drawing on a comparative study of 15 publicly owned regional utilities in Sweden, triangulating multiple empirical data sources, we develo…
Scholar-activism as an object of study in a diverse literature
Scholar-activism—academic scholars engaging in some form of activism—has recently become a prominent phenomenon as we witness calls for scholars to engage in political, social, and environmental causes that go beyond their traditional academic duties. An emerging literature focuses on scholar-activism as an object of study. However, the literature is scattered across rather disconnected disciplines and research fields, with few empirically and th…
From islands to platforms
Technologies such as district heating (DH), district cooling (DC) and heat pumps are essential for improving heating and cooling efficiency and supporting decarbonization goals. Although advancements such as next-generation DH promises lower temperatures and increased flexibility, these technologies are insufficient to reach such targets in isolation. While there is ongoing convergence between DH, heat pumps, and energy storage, the literature pa…
Scientists as Experts in Public Debates Characterised by Scientific Uncertainty
This study explores how academic scientists engage as experts in public debates characterised by scientific uncertainty and societal urgency, focusing on rhetorical positioning and communicative intentions. The research centres around the debate concerning COVID-19 measures in Sweden and analyses 109 opinion pieces written by scientists in various newspapers. The analysis identifies four ideal-typical expert roles: Reformers, Advisors, Informers,…
We can’t do everything ourselves.” - Why Swedish municipalities deliberately promote intermediation in governing the mobility transition
Norm-critical innovation as a way forward for responsible innovation? Evidence from a Swedish innovation policy program
In 2014, the Swedish innovation agency Vinnova set up the program ‘Gender and Diversity for Innovation’, which has its roots in norm-critical innovation. In line with rationales for responsible innovation, a central aim of the program is to identify and challenge discriminatory norms to develop more inclusive and equal innovation processes. This article presents the findings of an in-depth analysis of 34 projects funded under the program. It expl…
When Average Joe met the Inexperienced Superstar—a case study of the consequences for a university of a partnership with Ikea
The aim of this study was to explore how consequences from a university-wide partnership unfolded at various levels within a university and induced intra-organizational dynamics. This was achieved via an in-depth investigation of “The Bridge,” a collaborative partnership between the young mid-range Swedish Linnaeus University (“Average Joe”) and the home furnishing retail giant IKEA, which despite its global reach has only limited research capaci…
Enacting knowledge exchange
One of the key research and policy problems in innovation studies is the development of tools for understanding and measuring the impact of academic research on society. The paper contributes to resolving this problem by providing a typology that helps us to understand and analyse the roles researchers take on in order to make academic knowledge useful. A key finding is that utility creation is context dependent and varies between individual rese…
