Excellent- More about The Bioeconomy: Institutions, Innovation and Sustainability
The bioeconomy is a new industry that transforms agricultural, marine, and organic resources into food, feed, fuels, energy, and materials. This book explores its origins, formation, and challenges, emphasizing the need for a post-fossil future. It proposes a political economy of the ecological transition that theorizes the transition as a new crisis of capitalism. The book will be of interest to researchers and students interested in the development of the bioeconomy and the role of heterodox economics in the ecological transition.

The bioeconomy is gaining significant importance in regional, national, and European public policies, as it involves the transformation of agricultural, marine, and organic resources into food, feed, fuels, energy, and materials. This transformation is paving the way for a potential post-fossil future, making the bioeconomy a promising new industry. This book is the first attempt to comprehensively explore the origins, formation, and challenges of this emerging industry in terms of emerging institutions, innovation, and economic strategies.
The result of this work is that simply substituting raw materials for fossil fuels is insufficient to escape the fossil economy. Instead, the book develops a political economy of the ecological transition, which theorizes the transition as a new crisis of capitalism. This phase is characterized by stakeholders' efforts to develop renewed rationales and strategies to gain control over the reorganization of natural resource flows, their outcomes, and their evaluation.
The proposed framework incorporates recent findings from four complementary research strands: transition studies, institutional economics, ecological economics, and evolutionary economics of innovation. This interdisciplinary approach provides a comprehensive understanding of the bioeconomy's development and its role in the ecological transition.
The book will be of interest to researchers and students interested in the bioeconomy's development, as well as those seeking to understand the role of heterodox economics in the ecological transition.
