Guidebook for Aligning Practices and Steering Multi-System Change (eBook, PDF)

From Intervention to Social Change II

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Building on the work of the authors' previous volume, the Guidebook for Aligning Practices and Steering Multi-System Change translates cutting-edge theoretical concepts into the language and applied toolkits of change practitioners. This empirically grounded and theoretically sophisticated book provides policymakers and change-managers methods and toolkits for conceptual modelling of change when handling cross-sectoral issues. The authors both 'zoom in' to the granular unfolding change of everyday life and 'zoom out' to examine the 'big picture' of socio-technical systems such as energy, mobility, food and healthcare. In addition to the social practice theories introduced in the first volume, the authors draw on the multi-level perspective that underpins sustainability transition studies and combine two theories. They are also inspired by the Deep Transition concept that tackles multi-systems change. Bridging the gap between the theorisation of sustainability transitions and practical guidelines, it will appeal to policymakers, sustainability project managers and students of management, social and political sciences, technology and innovation.
