Sustainability, locality and democracy: Community identity in the sustainability transition.

Obiettivo

To develop a theory of globalism and localism as mutually essential patterns of societal adaptation to sustainable development, emphasising local requirements for community cohesion, social justice, economic opportunity and cultural identity in the European Union; to examine the legal contradictions and reconciliations between economic and social competitiveness and authentic (i.e. community revealed) localism in an expanding European Union; to develop new methodologies of communal visioning as to who loses and who gains in the transition to sustainability, and how democratic practices of giving and taking can be attuned to be acceptable and effective.

OBJECTIVES:
To develop a theory of globalism and localism as mutually essential patterns of societal adaptation to sustainable development, emphasising local requirements for community cohesion, social justice, economic opportunity and cultural identity in the European Union; to examine the legal contradictions and reconciliations between economic and social competitiveness and authentic (i.e. community revealed) localism in an expanding European Union; to develop new methodologies of communal visioning as to who loses and who gains in the transition to sustainability, and how democratic practices of giving and taking can be attuned to be acceptable and effective.
DESCRIPTION:
The research develops a theory of the relations between localism and globalisms and a legal analysis of its implications in the EU context. It tests out these two analytical positions in ten case studies carried out in five EU Member States (Austria, Greece, Portugal, Sweden, United Kingdom) that is, different economies and societies facing up to a more sustainable age. The main research tasks and methods are:
i) interviewing, via structural open-ended questionnaires of key people in government, business, social activism, do-it-yourself community politics, and the media concerning the contradictions and compatibilities of globalism and localism as these trends are initially perceived;
ii) visioning exercises, using images, projections, games and interactive decision models, of how key players in the case studies conceptualise the likely patterns of sustainability transitional pathways, first from the viewpoint of their own ideologies, secondly as a result of game playing and round table discussions;
iii) testing out mediation techniques, in game form, to see how effective and acceptable particular packages of adjustment might be to key stakeholders.
