Latecomer development in a “greening” world
The current transgression of ecological boundaries requires a transformation to a ‘Green Economy’, with rigorous and fast reductions of pollution and resource consumption. Transformative policy reforms towards this aim can lead to economic co-benefits, but they can also be costly, at least for certain economic actors. Furthermore, they can involve trade-offs between current and future wellbeing. Timing and sequencing of reforms is thus far from t…
Show me (more than) the money! Assessing the social and psychological dimensions to energy efficient lighting in Kenya
Despite economic, social and environmental benefits, the uptake of energy-saving compact fluorescent lamp light bulbs (CFLs) in Kibera, an informal settlement in Nairobi, remains low. We conducted a randomized controlled field experiment involving 651 Kibera residents assessing whether the joint impact of monetary incentives and behavioral interventions (pre-commitment and simplified information highlighting CFL benefits) could increase CFL uptak…
The role of labour power in sustainability transitions
Greenhouse-gas-emission-reductions to prevent dangerous levels of climate change require a global transition away from fossil-fuel energies. Sustainability transitions of such scale present a major redistribution process, and pose severe challenges to national policy-making. While power and politics have recently been addressed by scholars of sustainability transition, the role of labour as a central political actor is still underexplored. This a…
Sustainability-oriented innovation systems – managing the green transformation
Global warming and other impending environmental mega-problems call for a new technological paradigm. The urgency of the development and deployment of technological solutions is such that governments will need to make widespread use of 'carrots and sticks' to ensure that next-generation technologies are developed and deployed, more demanding standards and regulations are applied and stricter enforcement is guaranteed. To capture the main elements…
