Legitimising technologies for a circular economy: Contested discourses on innovation for plastics recycling in Europe
The European Commission aims to increase the recycling of plastic packaging to 60% by 2025, requiring fundamental changes towards a more circular economy. Pathways for this transition require policy support that largely depends on their legitimacy in the public discourse. These normative aspects remain poorly understood for ‘in-between’ technologies, i.e., technologies that are no longer novel but struggle to move to the growth phase within the t…
Policy mixes across vertical levels of governance in the EU: The case of the sustainable energy transition in Latvia
The European Green Deal requires policy alignment horizontally across policy areas but also vertically across governance levels. Accordingly, the diversity of actors and their preferences can hinder sociotechnical transitions. We, therefore, ask: How do policy mixes unfold across vertical scales of governance in sociotechnical transitions? We analyse vertical policy mix characteristics, considering consistency, coherence, comprehensiveness, and c…
From energy islands to energy highlands? Political barriers to sustainability transitions in the Baltic region
The European Green Deal strategy targets accelerated sustainability transitions, yet the pathways and processes thereto differ markedly across EU member-states, particularly in the energy sector. Politics and institutional contexts largely determine the transition dynamics. However, the sustainability transitions scholarship lacks concrete tools to identify such political barriers to transitions. This paper, therefore, asks: How do political barr…
