This breakfast seminar focuses on research into how land is used and controlled by different interests and social groups.
The transition to sustainable energy and resource use is a central objective in climate change mitigation and Agenda 2030. This transition generates complex goal conflicts over the use and control of land between different interests and societal groups.
On a fundamental level, goal conflicts concern the definition of sustainability, with differing notions of whether, what kind of, how much, and when sustainable change is necessary. However, even when such differences can be bridged, difficult goal conflicts remain. A crucial question is therefore how to govern them.
The speaker is Anders Sjögren, Associate Professor in Political Science and Senior Lecturer at Department of Government; Faculty. Read more about Anders Sjögren.
