Abstract

Using Gibson-Graham's methodology for reading for difference, this article seeks to shed a new light on the circular economy (CE), a concept often promoted, but rarely implemented. By presenting the diversity of practices around the acquisition, repair and resale of second-hand goods in Tashkent, Uzbekistan, this study provides insight on the circularity of urban environments. The collection and GIS mapping of around 60 interviews with small and medium enterprises involved in responsible consumption and production in Tashkent led to the development of a more accurate definition of the CE in an urban setting. Research results indeed reveal that responsible consumption and production are very dynamic concepts that rely mainly on accessibility, creativity and connectivity with one's surroundings, as well as social networks. In addition, GIS mapping of small businesses in the second-hand industry showed that the provision of second-hand-related services is intricately connected with urban infrastructure.

期刊介绍: The Journal aims to publish the best research on international development issues in a form that is accessible to practitioners and policy-makers as well as to an academic audience. The main focus is on the social sciences - economics, politics, international relations, sociology and anthropology, as well as development studies - but we also welcome articles that blend the natural and social sciences in addressing the challenges for development. The Journal does not represent any particular school, analytical technique or methodological approach, but aims to publish high quality contributions to ideas, frameworks, policy and practice, including in transitional countries and underdeveloped areas of the Global North as well as the Global South.
