GENERAL OBJECTIVES, RESEARCH QUESTIONS AND SCIENTIFIC RELEVANCE

This course examines the challenges posed by the governing of ecological transition processes for public policy research. The multi-actors/cross-sectoral nature of these dynamics has led to diverse heuristics that analyze the multiple interactions and the way these processes are governed, each one with different assumptions on their influencing factors. In keeping with the multidisciplinary nature of ecological transitions and how they are addressed in comparative policy research, this course will aim at: conceptualizing the role of public policies in transition processes; including this perspective into research designs and applied research; Examining what resources and capacities are drawn upon in order to monitor and administer processes of change; incorporating conflicts, resistances, and mobilizations; applying these concepts and tools across a range of policy areas/political contexts in order to generate new assumptions and research agendas for studying the governing of ecological transition processes.
