Elgar Research Agendas outline the future of research in a given
area. Leading scholars are given the space to explore their subject
in provocative ways, and map out the potential directions of
travel. They are relevant but also visionary. Evaluating
achievements, challenges and future avenues for research, this book
explores how new dimensions of knowledge and practice contest,
reshape and advance traditional understandings of sustainable
consumption governance. By questioning existing academic discourse
and advocating collective solutions, up-and-coming and established
scholars help readers to understand diverse governance processes
through a wide variety of topics. These range from consumption
impacts, the circular and sharing economy, sustainable business
models, consumer behaviour and work time, to understanding the role
of new actors such as prosumers and city governments. The research
agenda supports transformative system changes to a more sustainable
society. Policy makers at international, national and local levels
will benefit from the practical advice offered and forward-thinking
policy suggestions. It will also be a timely read for scholars of
sustainability studies, sociology of consumption, political economy
and political ecology, human geography, wellbeing, environment
studies and human ecology looking to gain a more well-rounded
understanding of the topic.
