Ecossistema de inovação social, sustentabilidade e experimentação democrática: um estudo em Florianópolis

Abstract

Cities have been conceived as one of the main loci for promoting changes in development patterns, and building solutions that can address the complexity of contemporary public problems. In this context, the study of social innovation ecosystems (SIE) and their eff ects on cities is a relevant theme, considering the socio-environmental crisis diversity and extent of the urban problems experienced. Th e research seeks to understand to what extent the SIE responds to problems experienced in the public arenas of the city. It proposes a pragmatist-inspired theoreticalmethodological approach to cartography and analysis of SIE that is being applied in the city of Florianópolis. Th rough the co-construction of a collaborative digital platform, the research observes actors, their interactions and practices, to understand "whether" and "how" this network favors "public inquiry" or democratic experimentation and/or promotes more sustainable development dynamics in the city.

Rethinking Border Studies: Participation and Social Innovation in Border Zone Development

“…Therefore, we agree with the current that believes in valuing local experiences and practices, even if imperfect and incomplete, as the fundamental dawn for the transformation of this reality (Addor, 2018;Andion, Alperstedt, & Graeff, 2020;Andion, Ronconi, Moraes, Gonsalves, & Serafim, 2017). We will argue in the next sections that the great challenge is to build objects of public intervention through public action (Lascoumes & Le Galès, 2012), which is a terminology that seeks to break with the unity of the State and its centralization of decision, giving visibility to the challenges of the city and the efforts of actors to resolve them, promoting participatory comanagement for whatever needs to be faced.…”

“…Source: Andion, Alperstedt,& Graeff, 2020, p. 195. Subsequently (2019-2020, the cartography of social innovation and support initiatives present in this frontier was started, which allowed their identification, to perceive the interactions among them, and to recognize the main public problems they seek to solve (moments 1 and 2 of Figure 1).…”

“…Epistemologically, the reading of all these data is based on the trend in sociology of addressing public problems with a pragmatist approach (Andion et al, 2017;Andion et al, 2020;Cefaï, 2009;Cefaï & Terzi, 2012), consisting of a dialogue with the subjects of social innovation and democratic experimentation (Ansell, 2012;Shields, 2008) to explore the possibilities of new forms of organization and to rethink politics through the critical capacity of actors, their practices, and their participation by understanding how action is placed in the border territory.…”

“…We agree with Addor (2018) on the need to promote "[…] a local political movement that allows the inhabitants to rescue their utopias" (p. 1117). However, we operationalize this view from the contributions by Andion et al (2017Andion et al ( , 2020, who supports the identification and analysis of social innovation ecosystems (SIE) promoted by the collective action of civil society in the public sphere from a pragmatist perspective. Social innovations are new ideas and practices that arise from the mobilization of a network of actors who seek to respond to different public problems, such as the quality of life, the insurance of rights, and the fight against poverty and social exclusion (Santo & Andion, 2020).…”

COVID-19 e a rede de apoio da Pastoral da Pessoa Idosa, Nacional

“…O voluntariado, organizado por diferentes instituições, aliado à mobilização da sociedade civil e às redes sociais, têm um papel importante como possibilidade para oferecer apoio às pessoas com 60 ou mais anos (Martins;2005;Neri, 2013;Paúl, 2014;Gouveia, 2016;Brito, Nunes, Duarte, Andrade, & Lebrão, 2018;Andion, Alperstedt, & Graeff, 2020).…”
