Successful transitions to a sustainable bioeconomy require novel technologies, processes, and practices as well as a general agreement about the overarching normative direction of innovation. Both requirements necessarily involve collective action by those individuals who purchase, use, and co-produce novelties: the consumers. Based on theoretical considerations borrowed from evolutionary innovation economics and consumer social responsibility, we explore to what extent consumers’ scope of action is addressed in the scientific bioeconomy literature. We do so by systematically reviewing bioeconomy-related publications according to (i) the extent to which consumers are regarded as passive vs. active, and (ii) different domains of consumer responsibility (depending on their power to influence economic processes). We find all aspects of active consumption considered to varying degrees but observe little interconnection between domains. In sum, our paper contributes to the bioeconomy literature by developing a novel coding scheme that allows us to pinpoint different aspects of consumer activity, which have been considered in a rather isolated and undifferentiated manner. Combined with our theoretical considerations, the results of our review reveal a central research gap which should be taken up in future empirical and conceptual bioeconomy research. The system-spanning nature of a sustainable bioeconomy demands an equally holistic exploration of the consumers’ prospective and shared responsibility for contributing to its coming of age, ranging from the procurement of information on bio-based products and services to their disposal.

As a microcosm for future challenges, the COVID-19 pandemic exhibits increasingly transboundary dynamics, causing interconnected problems across multiple societal systems. To examine the role of innovations as a social mechanism to reconcile these arising challenges, we view the unfolding of the pandemic through the lens of a content analysis of 707 innovation projects that address the fundamental human needs of consumers and businesses. This study proposes a novel procedure to characterize large-scale innovative activities via text mining and employs a theoretical framework for identifying the pressing societal needs amidst crises. Our typology of rapid-response COVID-19 innovations exhibits a diverse set of domains ranging from technological innovations to what may be described as frugal and social innovations. We provide evidence for the growing prevalence of social needs beyond the basic notion of safety during the early months of the crisis. Our contributions show that a structural model of innovation activities and their latent drivers may help policy makers and innovators to move toward achieving a systemic reaction to such crises.

Network dynamics, economic transformation, and policy design are closely related phenomena that influence the performance of economic systems in a variety of ways. In this introductory paper, we set the stage for a series of excellent contributions addressing some still largely unexplored questions in this research field. At the core of our introduction, we provide a contextual structuration and classification of the contributions to this special issue. Finally, we address some contemporary issues that deserve some attention since they open up highly interesting opportunities for future research.

In this contribution, we set out a framework for ethical research and innovation. Our framework draws upon recent scholarly work recommending the introduction of new models at the intersection of ethics, strategy, and science and technology studies to inform and explicate how the decisions of researchers can be considered ethical. Ethical research and innovation is construed in our framework as a dynamic process emerging from decisions of multiple stakeholders in innovation ecosystems prior to, during and after the execution of a research and innovation project. The framework can be used by different types of research organizations to implement governance models of ethical research and innovation.

After more than 200 years of industrial production, large portions of humankind are wealthier than ever before. At the same time, industrial production to date is closely linked to the exploitation of natural resources. The influence of human activity has assumed global proportions, as can be seen most clearly from the accumulation of climate-damaging gases in the atmosphere. This has put human survival on planet Earth at risk. Continuing “business as usual” is no longer an option. But how can the future be shaped, and humanity provided with a high or even increasing level of welfare, without continuing to endanger the natural foundations of life? At the beginning of the twenty-first century, many economies worldwide are linking their answers to this question with the knowledge-based bioeconomy. Is this really a way out? This will be examined in the following from the perspective of innovation economics.

A parsimonious multisectoral, multioccupational agent-based model is developed to study the impact of robotization on employment and wages. Hereby the effects of three policy interventions are studied: a universal basic income, a robot tax, and stimulating spawning of new sectors combined with increasing dynamic efficiency through labor mobility. It is found that robotization results in lower unit production costs and lower product prices, thus softens wage competition across sectors, and thereby causes stagnation of wages and possibly an income gap between low- and high-skilled occupations. However, the emergence of new sectors results in (sectoral) labor shortages and thus induces price-wage spirals effectively breaking away from wage stagnation and inducing “vacancy chains” in which workers migrate to more advanced occupations/sectors. Given these different effects of robotization, policy interventions are to be differentiated between economies with labor surplus and labor scarcity. In case of labor surplus, robotization will exacerbate unemployment and cause wage stagnation, such that it is commendable to tax robots to prevent robotization, a universal basic income to stimulate product and labor demand, and to stimulate innovation to create new sectors mopping up the unemployed. Under labor scarcity, wages are high and further escalate, which (i) invites technological substitution and (ii) slows down sector emergence, both reducing wage competition and labor utilization. In this case, robotization “frees up” labor, resolves labor shortages, reduces vacancies in new sectors, and relieves firms from (fierce) wage competition. In this case, a universal basic income exacerbates labor shortages, robot tax sustains fierce wage competition, and new sectors increase labor demand, such that these interventions are discommended. While there are indications of a basin of attraction for Schumpeterian creative-destruction at high employment levels, policy interventions may well be required to increase the dynamic efficiency of returning to those levels of employment through structural change and enhanced labor mobility.

The transition towards a bioeconomy is considered a powerful approach to combating current trends of unsustainability. To date, the concept has been widely perceived as a predominantly technical endeavor. This is, however, not sufficient and will not really tackle the global sustainability challenges. Therefore, the imparting of technological knowledge must be accompanied by instruction in other types of knowledge, particularly transformative knowledge. The authors explore the various elements of transformative knowledge necessary to equip the protagonists of a bioeconomy transformation. On this basis, four academic bioeconomy programs across Europe are analyzed using a hybrid methodological approach, combining a keyword-based content analysis of the module descriptions with semi-structured interviews of key representatives of the programs. It is shown that the syllabi of all four programs include important elements of transformative knowledge, such as communication, participation, and decision making skills. Skills related to the ability to revise and reflect personal values, in contrast, are mainly only an implicit part of the program. The study applies insights into education for sustainable development to the requirements of a fundamental transformation towards a sustainable bioeconomy. It offers a first appraisal of the consideration transformative knowledge is given in the design of European academic bioeconomy curricula.

Western economies nowadays are confronted with a predicted productivity slowdown resulting in diminishing rates of economic growth. While some scholars see these developments as an indication of the approaching end of growth due to fully exploited technological opportunities, this article contends that the possibilities for radical, paradigm changing innovations are far from being exploited. Building on contributions from Schumpeter and Georgescu-Roegen, we argue that the human capacity to expand technological and intellectual frontiers must not be underestimated. In a selective retrospect, our narrative identifies and describes four historical incidents reflecting different perceptions of the power of the human mind. It synthesizes the mentioned economists’ viewpoints with the effects of these incidents to reproduce the intellectual roots of the recently developed concept of Dedicated Innovation Systems (DIS). We conclude that traditional macro-level indicators are not suitable to capture transformation processes, which is why we propose to interpret growth indicators and the alleged productivity slowdown quite differently. We argue that human ingenuity and transformation processes dedicated to sustainability will open up new opportunity spaces, thereby combining an increase in economic welfare and social justice with a reduction of negative environmental impact.

Die evolutorische Ökonomik setzt sich die Erklärung von dynamischen, überwiegend durch technologische und andere Innovationen verursachten Wirtschaftsprozessen zum Ziel. Theoretisch wurzelt sie in den Arbeiten von Joseph A. Schumpeter aus dem frühen 20. Jahrhundert, der den in der Volkswirtschaftslehre im Vordergrund stehenden Preiswettbewerb durch den Innovationswettbewerb ersetzt und dem passiven homo oeconomicus den umtriebigen Entrepreneur an die Seite gestellt hat. Durchsetzen konnte sich die moderne evolutorische Ökonomik seit den 1980er-Jahren und liefert heute mit dem Ansatz der Innovationssysteme, den Rahmen für die ökonomische Innovationsforschung und Innovationspolitik.

Der Struktur und Dynamik von Netzwerken wird in der soziologischen Organisations- und Netzwerkforschung bereits seit Mitte des 20. Jahrhunderts eine große Bedeutung beigemessen. Gleichzeitig fällt auf, dass einem Großteil der empirischen Studien im Bereich der interorganisationalen Netzwerkforschung eine statische Perspektive zugrunde liegt. Die Studie von Powell et al. hat dazu beigetragen, diese Diskrepanz zu verringern.

Die Tatsache, dass Wertschöpfung mehr und mehr in komplexen, interorganisationalen Netzwerken stattfindet, hat seit den 1950er Jahren die Forschung zum Einfluss sozialer (Netzwerk-)Strukturen vorangetrieben. Die Aussage, dass die sozialen Verbindungen zwischen Firmen die Leistungsfähigkeit dieser sowie die des gesamten Netzwerkes beeinflussen, führte daher zwangsläufig zu Debatten über die Stärke dieses Einflusses sowie dessen konkrete positive und negative Effekte. Ein bedeutender Beitrag zur Forschung auf diesem Gebiet ist die Studie von Brian Uzzi aus dem Jahr 1997.

The transformation towards a knowledge-based bioeconomy has the potential to serve as a contribution to a more sustainable future. Yet, until now, bioeconomy policies have been only insufficiently linked to concepts of sustainability transformations. This article aims to create such link by combining insights from innovation systems (IS) research and transformative sustainability science. For a knowledge-based bioeconomy to successfully contribute to sustainability transformations, the IS’ focus must be broadened beyond techno-economic knowledge. We propose to also include systems knowledge, normative knowledge, and transformative knowledge in research and policy frameworks for a sustainable knowledge-based bioeconomy (SKBBE). An exploration of the characteristics of this extended, “dedicated” knowledge will eventually aid policymakers in formulating more informed transformation strategies.

We study the projected impact of automation on employment in the forthcoming decade, both at the macro-level and in actual (types of) sectors. Hereto, we unite an evolutionary economic model of multisectoral structural change with labor economic theory. We thus get a comprehensive framework of how displacement of labor in sectors of application is compensated by intra- and intersectoral countervailing effects and notably mopped up by newly created, labor-intensive sectors. We use several reputable datasets with expert projections on employment in occupations affected by automation (and notably by the introduction of robotics and AI) to pinpoint which and how sectors and occupations face employment shifts. This reveals how potential job loss due to automation in “applying” sectors is counterbalanced by job creation in “making” sectors as well in complementary and quaternary, spillover sectors. Finally, we study several macro-level scenarios on employment and find that mankind is facing “the usual structural change” rather than the “end of work”. We provide recommendations on policy instruments that enhance the dynamic efficiency of structural change.
