Bram Bouwens (UU) & Frank Veraart (TUe)

November 5th 2021

13.00-14.30

After the first successful Deep Transitions Netherlands Project Seminar  we are looking forward to continue discussing the Deep Transitions project in the Netherlands with you. The seminar series facilitate the development of a research program on deep transitions in the past and in the future. The seminars are meant to inform, to discuss and to get your feedback on proposed ideas during the break-out sessions.

The second online seminar will take place on November 5^th. This seminar will focus on qualitative research methods of socio-technical systems and meta-rules.  The purpose of this seminar is to introduce preliminary ideas on the topic and to start the debate on how we can use historical research to understand the first Deep Transitions, in order to inform the second Deep Transition in the making.

The slides of the seminar and a summary of the conversation topics and other relevant material can be found at the seminar series website. Access to these materials require signing up to the meetings by e-mail to Louisa King
