The destabilisation of existing regimes: Confronting a multi-dimensional framework with a case study of the British coal industry (1913–1967)

Turnheim, Bruno; Geels, Frank W. - In: Research Policy 42 (2013) 10, pp. 1749-1767

Because innovation studies are oriented towards novelty, scholars in this field have paid less attention to the destabilisation of existing regimes. This paper discusses four views on industry destabilisation and presents an encompassing conceptual framework, which addresses interactions between...

Regime destabilisation as the flipside of energy transitions: Lessons from the history of the British coal industry (1913–1997)

Turnheim, Bruno; Geels, Frank W. - In: Energy Policy 50 (2012) C, pp. 35-49

This paper investigates a neglected aspect of the transitions literature: the destabilisation of existing regimes and industries. It presents an analytical perspective that integrates four existing views on destabilisation and conceptualizes the process as a multi-dimensional and enacted...

Innovation and diffusion of environmental technology: Industrial NOx abatement in Sweden under refunded emission payments

Sterner, Thomas; Turnheim, Bruno - In: Ecological Economics 68 (2009) 12, pp. 2996-3006

We study the actual process of technical change in the case of NOx abatement from large stationary sources that have been regulated by very forceful policies in Sweden. Considerable progress has been made in lowering aggregate emissions and this paper seeks to disaggregate average industry...

Local and global dynamics in technological development: a socio-cognitive perspective on knowledge flows and lessons from reinforced concrete

Geels, Frank; Deuten, J Jasper - In: Science and Public Policy 33 (2006) 4, pp. 265-275

Although knowledge flows are a popular concept, the underlying dynamics are not well understood. This article develops a perspective that conceptualises the social and cognitive activities that make knowledge flows possible. Dynamics involve interactions between local and global levels, and...

Climate change and the slow reorientation of the American car industry (1979–2012): An application and extension of the Dialectic Issue LifeCycle (DILC) model

Penna, Caetano C.R.; Geels, Frank W. - In: Research Policy 44 (2015) 5, pp. 1029-1048

This paper uses the Dialectic Issue LifeCycle-model (DILC-model) to analyze the co-evolution of the climate change problem and strategic responses from the American car industry. The longitudinal and multi-dimensional analysis investigates the dynamics of the climate change problem in terms of...

Societal problems and industry reorientation: Elaborating the Dialectic Issue LifeCycle (DILC) model and a case study of car safety in the USA (1900–1995)

Geels, Frank W.; Penna, Caetano C.R. - In: Research Policy 44 (2015) 1, pp. 67-82

Addressing societal problems requires the reorientation of firms-in-industries, including changes in technology, belief systems, and mission. The paper aims to make two contributions to the Dialectic Issue LifeCycle (DILC) model, which captures the dynamics of socio-political mobilization around...

Reconceptualising the co-evolution of firms-in-industries and their environments: Developing an inter-disciplinary Triple Embeddedness Framework

Geels, Frank W. - In: Research Policy 43 (2014) 2, pp. 261-277

This inter-disciplinary theory-building paper is motivated by the debate on grand societal challenges and by calls in the innovation studies literature for frameworks that offer a better understanding of the co-evolution of industries and their economic, political, cultural, and social...
