基于循环经济原则提供服务的替代方法面临着扩散到利基市场的地方实验之外成为主流的问题。这是我们案例研究的切入点,研究了在荷兰鹿特丹的城市生活实验室BlueCity010内开发的循环餐饮形式的利基实验,以及它如何与现任演员互动。这一案例的背景是国家政策计划“2050年荷兰循环经济”和更大的社会政治努力,以加速荷兰向循环经济的过渡。通过利益相关者分析和面对面访谈,提取了定性数据,有助于绘制扩散过程,内在的权力动态,以及利基和当前政权行为者之间的连接机制。结果详细介绍了各种方式,通过利基和政权演员连接,包括采取行动,以促进循环餐饮和设置,创造了一个有利的环境的扩散。我们的研究结果还包括荷兰政府部门成功指标的量化值(例如二氧化碳排放范围,动物蛋白百分比,减少食物浪费),这些指标在初步阶段似乎正在实现餐饮业的循环目标。我们的研究为如何通过循环创业公司增加和扩大清洁生产实践以实现循环经济提供了新的经验见解,总结为15项观察原则,用于将利基创新与现有实践相结合。最后,这些观察到的做法进行了讨论,在可持续性的过渡,并在其潜在的普遍性,以清洁采购。(C)2020年,任作家。爱思唯尔有限公司出版
Alternative ways to provide services based on circular economy principles are facing the problem of diffusing beyond local experimentations in niches to become mainstream. This is the entry point for our case study examining niche experimentation in the form of circular catering as developed within the urban living lab BlueCity010 in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, and how it interacted with incumbent actors. This case sets itself against the background of the national policy program "Circular Netherlands in 2050" and larger socio-political efforts to accelerate the transition to a circular economy in the Netherlands. Through a stakeholder analysis and in-person interviews, qualitative data was extracted that helped to map the process of diffusion, the inherent power dynamics, and connecting mechanisms between niche and current regime actors. The results detail various manners through which niche and regime actors connect, including actions taken to facilitate the diffusion of circular catering and settings that created a favorable environment. Our findings also include quantitative values for indicators of success from a Dutch ministry (e.g. CO2 emissions range, percent of animal protein, reduction of food waste), which appear in their very preliminary stage to be on track for meeting their circularity goals within catering. Our research offers novel empirical insights into how to increase and scale cleaner production practices towards a circular economy through circular startups, summarized into 15 observed principles for connecting and integrating niche innovations to incumbent practices. Lastly, these observed practices are discussed in connection to sustainability transitions and in terms of their potential generalizability to cleaner procurement. (C) 2020 The Authors.
