In the same realm as social ecology, industrial ecology and the
circular economy, a new interdisciplinary field is growing:
territorial ecology. Based on the analysis of the metabolism of
human societies at a local level, it helps us diagnose a
socioecosystem. This diagnostic is not only based on what is
circulating, but also on how it is organized and why. Who is at the
origin of a flow? What are their motivations? Who has the power to
make decisions about it? This methodology, taking into account both
the material description of human societies and the analysis of
decisionmaking processes, might also be relevant for territorial
diagnostics. It leads us to a systemic view of the consequences of
individual and collective actions on the sustainability of local
socio ecosystems. Socio-ecological transition implies a substantial
evolution of human societies. Innovation, be it technological,
organizational or social, is intrinsically involved in this
evolution. However, if transition calls for disruptive rather than
incremental innovations, we must also assess these innovations with
a systemic view of their consequences.
