In many ways, sustainability concerns have become mainstream. Major
actors from the public, private, and research sectors now all declare
their commitment to reducing carbon emissions, biodiversity loss, and
achieving a sustainability transition. Yet, there are important
differences in visions of sustainability, priorities, and proposed
solutions. This course examines sustainability transitions from an
international perspective and the international politics of
sustainability transitions, looking at a wide range of approaches to
sustainability transitions ranging from degrowth and sufficiency to
circular economy and sustainability governance of global value chains.
The course consists of a combination of seminars to discuss set
readings, group work to develop a policy brief and inputs from
researchers from South America.
