“…Authors like Stam (2015), Lévesque (2016), Domanski et al (2020), and Terstriep et al (2020) bring attention to the need for less normative frameworks that avoid the trap of establishing standard solutions or tautological models to explain social innovation and its consequences and that consider the multiplicity of experiences in terms of social innovation, giving importance to empirical researches (Andion et al, 2022(Andion et al, , p. 1262.…”

“…There is a search for regularity for more control in all sciences, but if the challenges of society become increasingly complex, systemic, and global, we must find innovative solutions that require approaches considering aspects not necessarily measurable, controllable, or predictable (Domanski, 2018, Domanski, Howaldt & Kaletka, 2020, Andion, Alperstedt & Graëff, 2020, Andion et al, 2022. Moreover, considering that the world is extremely complex, we will always have enormous challenges in controlling diversity and adversities such as the ones observed in the Araucária + Initiative.…”

Objetivo: Explorar as controvérsias entre os atores mapeados no projeto Araucária + para entender as questões que impedem um avanço mais rápido na preservação da floresta com Araucárias no sul do Brasil na direção do ODS 15. Método/abordagem: Estudo de caso qualitativo e interpretativo que considera o contexto cultural, histórico e político da região e observa as tensões na dinâmica e gestão das interações dentro do ecossistema de inovação social estudado. Principais Resultados: A pesquisa apresenta os atores, seus papéis e relações, revelando duas controvérsias principais: (1) ausência de consenso sobre a necessidade de proteger a floresta e, (2) a questão da pecuária e seu impacto nas florestas remanescentes. Contribuições teóricas/práticas/sociais: Este estudo contribui para problematizar e avançar em relação a modelos teóricos normativos, estáticos e predeterminados que descrevem modelos de ecossistemas de inovação social ideais, sem trazer à tona as particularidades e controvérsias existentes em ecossistemas específicos. O artigo contribui, assim, para a compreensão da complexidade de um ecossistema de inovação social destinado a proteger a Mata Atlântica no Sul do Brasil, a partir da literatura sobre Ecossistema de Inovação Social. Originalidade/relevância: Ao contribuir para a compreensão de uma rede de atores específica voltada para a preservação da Mata Atlântica sob a perspectiva da abordagem dos ecossistemas de inovação social, o artigo fornece insights sobre a complexidade dessa rede que foge dos modelos ideais encontrados na literatura, assim como traz luz a uma importante experiência voltada para a preservação de florestas, em conexão direta com o ODS 15 e indiretamente com os demais ODSs.

Aim Active transportation referring to non-motorized modes of transport is promoted and popularized both in practice and in the scientific literature, while their use for urban freight transport has been largely neglected. Thus the main scope of the paper is to indicate the development potential of micromobility use in urban freight transport and to check its influence on urban sustainability. Methods The authors have hypothesized that active means of transport, with a focus on micromobility, have great development potential in freight transportation in cities. The implemented methods for analyzing the relationship between users’ characteristics, micromobility, and its impact on urban sustainable development, were logit and probit modelling. The authors’ system includes an analysis of factors connected with the topics of sustainability and micromobilty, that have met an essential scientific gap that this paper addresses. Logistic (logit) regression is used mainly for binary, ordinal, and multi-level outcomes to find the probability of success (i.e. occurrence of some event). Probit regression, however, is primarily used in binary response models and assumes the normal distribution of data. Results The main finding of the article has led the authors to the statement that active means of transport, including micromobility have great development potential in freight transportation in cities. Conclusions Knowledge of the acceptance of micromobility solutions is essential for municipal authorities in shaping the development of urban transport systems. Thus proper strategies and actions need to be prioritized to leverage the sustainability-related co-benefits of active transport.

“…First, this paper plays an important role in enriching and expanding the existing literature on urban innovation systems. In the study of city innovation systems (CISs), the existing literature has focused on firms [26], industries [27], social innovation [28], dynamic capabilities [29], and networks [30]. However, these studies have ignored the intrinsic interconnectedness of innovation systems among neighboring cities.…”

High-Speed Rails and City Innovation System: Empirical Evidence from China

The rapid development of high-speed rail has markedly shortened the travel time from one city to another. However, the impact of space–time compression brought about by high-speed rail on city innovation has not received sufficient attention. This paper examines the space–time compression phenomenon produced by high-speed railway networks and its impact on city innovation from 2000 to 2019 using a sample of 279 Chinese prefecture-level cities. The empirical results show that there was a strong space–time compression during this period. The development of high-speed rail can promote city innovation. However, the construction of high-speed rail also produces a siphon effect, which accelerates the convergence of innovative elements in cities with stronger innovation capabilities. Nevertheless, it has a negative spillover effect on cities with weaker innovation capabilities. Finally, policy recommendations for promoting the balanced development of city innovation and recommendations for future research are presented.
