"Consumption Corridors are a powerful instrument for responsibly pursuing the good life in a world of ecological and social limits. Defined by minimum consumption standards allowing every individual to live a good life, and maximum standards guaranteeing the chance to live a good life for others, consumption corridors allow to envision and implement the social change needed to make living well within limits a reality. Minimum consumption standards will ensure that individuals living now or in the future are able to satisfy their needs, safeguarding access to the necessary quality and quantity of ecological and social resources. Maximum consumption standards, in turn, are needed to ensure that consumption by some individuals does not threaten the opportunity for a good life for others. The space between the floor of minimum consumption standards and the ceiling of maximum consumption standards produces a sustainable consumption corridor. It is the space within which individuals may make their consumption choices freely and sustainably” (Fuchs et al., 2021, p. 33).
Das Konzept der Konsumkorridore wurde im Zuge einer Kollaboration zwischen deutschen und Schweizer Forscher*innen zum nachhaltigen Konsum entwickelt (Blättel-Mink et al. 2011) und ist seit diesem Zeitpunkt von einer wachsenden Zahl internationaler Forschungsaktivitäten erweitert und angewandt worden (e.g. Special Issue on Consumption Corridors of Sustainability: Science, Practice, and Policy, 2021). Aufgrund seines Potenzials der Förderung der Nachhaltigkeitstransformation steht es im Fokus umfangreicher, aktueller Forschung. Im Folgenden führen wir unsere Beiträge zur Literatur zu Konsumkorridoren auf und darunter relevante Publikationen anderer Wissenschaftler*innen, als Ressource für alle, die an dem Thema interessiert sind.
