摘要: It is generally accepted that the concept of sustainability not straightforward, but subject to ongoing ambiguities, uncertainties and contestations. Yet literature on transitions has so far only engaged in limited ways with resulting tough questions around what means, whom which contexts. This paper makes a contribution this debate by unpacking India Thailand context solar photovoltaic urban mobility experimentation. Building database experiments multicriteria mapping techniques applied two workshops, concludes transition scholarship associated governance strategies must engage such at least three important ways. First, there need for extreme caution assuming any objective status innovations, greater reflection normative implications case study choices. Second, more diverse possible socio-technical configurations even within (apparently) singular technological fields. Third, be explicit reflective about specific geographical contexts experimentation addressed.
