Abstract:
Learning from innovations that fail is imperative for innovations that succeed. The theoretical underpinnings for this innovative framing are reflexivity, transformative unlearning, and intelligent failure. This framework proposes a definition of \"transformative governance\" as governance that creates structural equities. Governments rebuilding their economies after the COVID-19 pandemic seek equitable green transformations; that are gendered, structural, and sustainable, learning from the implemented gender-sensitive responses (hereafter referred to as policy innovations). This paper argues that transformative practices, beliefs, values, assumptions, policies, and systematic learnings are complementary to post-crisis transformations. The aim is to promote systematic learnings from innovation governance failure regarding energy policy through the analysis of COVID-19 practices and the unlearning of policy innovation beliefs, values, and assumptions that are not transformative. I ask: how gender-equitable, structurally equitable, and green-transformative were the COVID-19 policy innovations? The study\'s approach is qualitative and situated within the constructivist research paradigm. It uses reflexive thematic analysis combined with innovative coded policy narrative and a transformative index-matching technique, to identify the gap within transformative interventions. The study included 58 policy innovations (n = 58) collected from the UNDP, KPMG, government reports, and news flashes from the three most populous nations in sub-Sahara Africa: Egypt, Nigeria, and South Africa. The study found that policy innovations were inequitable in terms of gender, structure, and sustainability whereas the derived transformative pathways are equitable and gender-transformative, structurally transformative, and green-transformative. The rationales behind a transformative approach to policy reflect the systemic failures across key areas: market dynamics, research and development, and green transformation. Policy innovators can align transformative pathways for innovative governance that implements transformative energy policy. To address the needs of multiple fragile and vulnerable identities, the derived post-pandemic framework is an intersectional plan with 10 policy learning pillars. The plan includes local energy transformation and reinforcement of energy justice components, such as the localization of the energy industry, community power, and social norms, including Ubuntu, which translates to \"I am because we are.\" Reengagement in global supply chains requires South-South trade relations to be restrategized.
摘要:
从失败的创新中学习对于成功的创新至关重要。这种创新框架的理论基础是反身性,变革性的遗忘,智能失败该框架提出了“变革性治理”的定义,即创建结构性股权的治理。在COVID-19大流行后重建经济的政府寻求公平的绿色转型;性别化,结构,可持续,从实施的对性别问题有敏感认识的应对措施(以下称为政策创新)中学习。本文认为,变革性实践,信仰,值,假设,政策,系统学习是危机后转型的补充。目的是通过分析COVID-19实践和消除政策创新信念,促进对能源政策创新治理失败的系统学习,值,和不具有变革性的假设。我问:性别平等,结构公平,和绿色变革是COVID-19政策创新吗?该研究的方法是定性的,位于建构主义研究范式内。它使用反身主题分析,结合创新的编码政策叙事和变革性的索引匹配技术,确定变革性干预措施中的差距。该研究包括从开发署收集的58项政策创新(n=58),毕马威,政府报告,新闻从撒哈拉以南非洲人口最多的三个国家闪现:埃及,尼日利亚,和南非。研究发现,政策创新在性别方面是不公平的,结构,和可持续性,而衍生的变革途径是公平和性别变革的,结构上的变革性,绿色变革。变革性政策方法背后的基本原理反映了关键领域的系统性失败:市场动态,研究和开发,绿色转型政策创新者可以为实施变革性能源政策的创新治理调整变革性途径。为了满足多重脆弱和脆弱身份的需求,衍生的大流行后框架是一个交叉计划,有10个政策学习支柱。该计划包括当地能源转型和加强能源正义部分,例如能源行业的本地化,社区力量,和社会规范,包括Ubuntu,翻译为“我是,因为我们是。“重新参与全球供应链需要调整南南贸易关系的战略。
