Modern societies face several structural problems such as transport congestion and greenhouse gas emissions due to the widespread use of fossil fuels. To address these important societal problems and achieve sustainability in the broad sense, major transformations are required, but this poses an enormous challenge given the complexity of the processes involved. Such transformations are called `transitions' or `system innovations' and involve changes in a variety of elements, including technology, regulation, user practices and markets, cultural meaning and infrastructure. This book considers two main questions: how do system innovations or transitions come about and how can they be influenced by different actors, in particular by governments. The authors identify the theories which can be used to conceptualise the dynamics of system innovations and discuss the weaknesses in these theories. They also look at the lessons which can be learned from historical examples of transitions, and highlight the instruments and policy tools which can be used to stimulate future system innovations towards sustainability. The expert contributors address these questions using insights from a variety of different disciplines including innovation studies, evolutionary economics, the sociology of technology, environmental analysis and governance studies. The book concludes with an extensive summary of the results and practical suggestions for future research. This important new volume offers an interdisciplinary assessment of how and why system innovations occur. It will engage and inform academics and researchers interested in transitions towards sustainability, and will also be highly relevant for policymakers concerned with environmental issues, structural change and radical innovation.

Des histoires à la fois pratiques et inspirantes sur le leadership environnemental sur le campus. Ces récits personnels sur l’écologisation des campus universitaires offrent inspiration, motivation et conseils pratiques. Rédigées par des professeurs, du personnel, des administrateurs et un étudiant, à partir de perspectives variées et reflétant des expériences divergentes, ces histoires cartographient également la force croissante d’un mouvement national vers la responsabilité environnementale sur le campus. La sensibilisation à l’environnement sur les campus collégiaux et universitaires a commencé avec la célébration de la sensibilisation au Jour de la Terre, en 1970. Depuis lors, l’action environnementale sur le campus a été à la fois mondiale (dans la recherche et l’élaboration de politiques) et locale (dans les efforts visant à apporter des améliorations environnementales spécifiques sur les campus). Les histoires de ce livre montrent que la réalisation de la durabilité environnementale ne consiste pas à appliquer les formules de gestion des risques ou de technologie d’ingénierie, mais fait partie de ce que les éditeurs appellent la réalité désordonnée de l’engagement participatif dans la transformation culturelle. Dans Sustainability on Campus, les dirigeants de campus racontent des histoires inspirantes de stratégies qui ont fait avancer dix-huit collèges et universités vers un avenir plus durable. Ce livre s’adresse aux professeurs, aux étudiants, aux administrateurs, au personnel et aux partenaires communautaires, qu’ils soient hésitants ou engagés, compétents ou nouveaux arrivants. Les universitaires et les militants ont reconnu le rôle crucial que l’enseignement supérieur peut jouer dans l’effort de durabilité.
