Chasing after the wind? Green economy strategies, path creation and transitions in the offshore wind industry
研究了德国西北部海上风电产业的发展，探讨地方和区域政府如何通过绿色经济战略促进经济发展和环境目标，但缺乏证据表明这些目标是否实现。
There has been a growing interest by both academics and policymakers at the local and regional scales in the development of a green economy both to promote economic development and to achieve environmental policy aims. Despite this, there is little evidence about whether either the economic or the environmental aims are being met, nor how local and regional authorities are promoting and developing green economies in their localities. In order to address these issues, this paper explores the development of the offshore wind industry in North West Germany, drawing upon sustainability transitions research and the path creation literature.
