City street experiment for transformative change - municipal challenges of re-making public spaces
One way to foster innovation in urban settings is through urban experimentation, which involves giving actors the opportunity to try out new solutions. One venue for urban experimentation is city street experiments. City street experiments have emerged as an alternative way to test new solutions that can lead to transformative change. They are also a call for a reprioritization of city street space in favor of more sustainable modes of travel. Sp…
It Will Feel Empty, but I Am Not Sure Why
Worldwide, hundreds of the first generation of commercial nuclear reactors are currently entering into decommissioning. In parallel, new nuclear energy is promoted to mitigate climate change. Such energy transitions are global but take place in local landscapes, affecting the everyday lives of the elderly, adults, and children. A nuclear plant often dominates the skyline and the local identity, and its existence, disappearance, or replacement, co…
E-biking within a transitioning transport system
Over the last few years, electrically assisted cycling, e-biking, has increased substantially worldwide. Replacing car driving for individual journeys, especially commuting, is highlighted as important to mitigate climate change, improve public health, and reduce congestion and other unwanted consequences connected to the car. Car driving, however, is still the overwhelmingly dominant mode of personal transport globally and the 'system of automob…

Klimatkrisens sociologi
Almost three decades have passed since the publishing of the last, and only, special issue on the sociology-environmental nexus in this journal. Since then, few of the articles published in Sociologisk Forskning have addressed climate change at all or in any substantial way. This silence could be interpreted as a quiet statement that sociology does not need to concern itself with climate change. However, no such line of argument is suggested in t…
