Abstract

We present the concept of “transition imaginary”, defined as a discursive effect of the relational work of the state to strategically select and reconfigure landscape pressures through national sociotechnical imaginaries for the sake of legitimizing particular transition projects. Using the case study of the Polish project of an electric vehicle (EV) IZERA, we illustrate a model that helps understand how landscape pressures are reinterpreted in relation to national sociotechnical imaginaries with the active role of state actors in this process. State actors use various forms of representation to publicly express expectations about its benefits and meanings to consolidate the social base for it and propose concrete forms of intervention to bring them into existence. By applying the strategic-relational approach to state power developed by Bob Jessop, we unpack sustainable transitions as state projects of political power and a geographically specific modality of state capitalism.
过渡想象:对波兰电动汽车国家项目的期望
我们提出了 "转型想象 "的概念,将其定义为国家通过国家社会技术想象对景观压力进行战略选择和重构的关系工作所产生的话语效果,目的是使特定的转型项目合法化。通过对波兰电动汽车(EV)IZERA 项目的案例研究,我们阐述了一个模型,该模型有助于理解景观压力如何在国家社会技术想象中被重新诠释,以及国家行为者在这一过程中的积极作用。国家行为者利用各种形式的表述,公开表达对其利益和意义的期望,以巩固其社会基础,并提出具体的干预形式,使其得以实现。通过应用鲍勃-杰索普(Bob Jessop)提出的国家权力战略关系方法,我们将可持续转型理解为国家政治权力项目和国家资本主义的一种特定地理模式。

期刊介绍: Environmental Innovation and Societal Transitions serves as a platform for reporting studies on innovations and socio-economic transitions aimed at fostering an environmentally sustainable economy, thereby addressing structural resource scarcity and environmental challenges, particularly those associated with fossil energy use and climate change. The journal focuses on various forms of innovation, including technological, organizational, economic, institutional, and political, as well as economy-wide and sectoral changes in areas such as energy, transport, agriculture, and water management. It endeavors to tackle complex questions concerning social, economic, behavioral-psychological, and political barriers and opportunities, along with their intricate interactions. With a multidisciplinary approach and methodological openness, the journal welcomes contributions from a wide array of disciplines within the social, environmental, and innovation sciences.
