在过去的十年里,可持续发展转型的研究迅速扩大,在主题和地理应用方面多样化,并在理论和方法方面不断深化。本文提供了一个广泛的审查和更新的研究议程的领域,分为九个主要主题:理解过渡;权力,机构和政治;治理过渡;民间社会,文化和社会运动;企业和行业;在实践和日常生活中的过渡;地理过渡;道德方面;和方法。审查表明,可持续性转型研究的范围已经扩大,与既定学科的联系也越来越强。与此同时,我们看到,与可持续性有关的重大挑战仍未解决,需要继续努力,加快正在进行的过渡。过渡研究可以在这方面发挥关键作用,创造新的视角、方法和理解,并帮助社会朝着可持续发展的方向发展。
Research on sustainability transitions has expanded rapidly in the last ten years, diversified in terms of topics and geographical applications, and deepened with respect to theories and methods. This article provides an extensive review and an updated research agenda for the field, classified into nine main themes: understanding transitions; power, agency and politics; governing transitions; civil society, culture and social movements; businesses and industries; transitions in practice and everyday life; geography of transitions; ethical aspects; and methodologies. The review shows that the scope of sustainability transitions research has broadened and connections to established disciplines have grown stronger. At the same time, we see that the grand challenges related to sustainability remain unsolved, calling for continued efforts and an acceleration of ongoing transitions. Transition studies can play a key role in this regard by creating new perspectives, approaches and understanding and helping to move society in the direction of sustainability.
