The article engages with the recent studies on multilevel regulation. The starting point for the argument is that contemporary multilevel regulation—as most other studies of (postnational) rulemaking—is limited in its analysis. The limitation concerns its monocentric approach that, in turn, deepens the social illegitimacy of contemporary multilevel regulation. The monocentric approach means that the study of multilevel regulation originates in the discussions on the foundation of modern States instead of returning to the origins of rules before the nation State was even created, which is where the actual social capital underlying (contemporary) rules can be found, or so I wish to argue. My aim in this article is to reframe the debate. I argue that we have an enormous reservoir of history, practices, and ideas ready to help us think through contemporary (social) legitimacy problems in multilevel regulation: namely all those practices which preceded the capture of law by the modern State system, such as historical alternative dispute resolution (ADR) practices.

This article provides a description of the emergence of the Spanish ‘Occupy’ movement, Democracia real ya. The aim is to analyse the innovative discursive features of this movement and to connect this analysis to what we consider the innovative potential of the critical sciences. The movement is the result of a spontaneous uprising that appeared on the main squares of Madrid and Barcelona on 15 May 2011 and then spread to other Spanish cities. This date gave it its name: 15M. While the struggle for democracy in Spain is certainly not new, the 15M group shows a series of innovative features. These include the emphasis on peaceful struggle and the imaginary of a new democracy or worldview, transmitted through innovative placards and slogans designed by Spanish citizens. We consider these innovative not only due to their creativity, but also because of their use as a form of civil action. Our argument is that these placards both functioned as a sign of protest and, in combination with the demonstrations and the general dynamics of 15M, helped to reframe the population’s understanding of the crisis and rearticulate the identity of the citizens from victims to agents. In order to analyse the multimodal character of this struggle, we developed an interdisciplinary methodology, which combines socio-cognitive approaches that consider ideological proposals as socio-cognitive constructs (i.e. the notion of narrative or cognitive frame), and Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) in the analysis of discourses related to processes of social imagination and transformation. The socio-constructivist perspective is used to consider these discourses in relation to their actors, particular contexts and actions. The use of CDA, which included a careful rhetoric analysis, helped to analyse the process of deconstruction, transformation and reconstruction that 15M uses to maintain its struggle. The narrative analysis and the discursive theoretical concept of articulation helped to methodologically show aspects of the process of change alluded to above. This change was both in terms of cognition and in the modification of identity that turned a large part of the Spanish population from victims to indignados and to the neologism indignadanos, which is a composition of indignado and ciudadano (citizen).

The Erasmus project Peat Valley+ was a coalition of the Hanze University of Applied Science, Vocational School Terra in the Netherlands, the Vives University of Applied Science in Belgium and the university of Skövde in Sweden. This Alliance worked on the development of an external structure in the region to make the schools, students, researchers and teachers mobile in their own region. This project is linked to LLO and Regional Food Chain REFRAME.

Regional sustainability networks in the Netherlands are rooted in regionalculture and have an emphasis on social learning and effective collaboration between multiple actors. The national ‘Duurzaam Door’ (Moving Forward Sustainably) Policy Programme regards these networks as generative governance arrangements where new knowledge, actions and relations can co-evolve together with new insights in governance and learning within sustainability transitions. In order to understand the dynamics of the learning in these networks we have monitored emergent properties of social learning between 2014 and 2016. Our focus is particularly on the interrelated role of trust, commitment, reframing and reflexivity. Our aim is to better understand the role and the dynamics of these emergent properties and to see which actors and roles can foster the effectiveness of social learning in regional transitions towards more sustainable ways of living. We used a retrospective analysis with Reflexive Monitoring in Action (RMA), which we combined with the Most Significant Change approach. We found that reflexivity in particularis a critical property at moments that can make or break the process.

Eindrapport van AEQUOR-project Blij met Ham uit Blijham waarin verslag wordt gedaan van het project waarin de regionale voedselketen in haar mogelijkheden wordt verkend. Het project is direct verbonden aan het Europese project REFRAME. Met name is gezocht naar de bouw van een nieuwe opleiding op MBO-niveau gericht op de regionale voedselketen en op de ontwikkeling van processen vanuit de Gebiedscoöperatie Westerkwartier in het mobiliseren van het proces van transformatie van de achterban op de nieuwe voedselketen. Het rapport is de weerslag van deze processen en van de ontwikkeling van het lectoraat DCO op dit proces

This chapter answers the question: Why do we need new approaches such as Imagineering? The answer to this question turns out to be simple and clear: Because with growing connectivity comes growing complexity. The chapter starts with an explanation of the difference between complicated and complex issues. Then it explains how hyperconnectivity brings forth not only VUCA (volatility, uncertainty, complexity and ambiguity) challenges but also important network opportunities, such as increasing the possibilities for value creation and enabling learning. The main part of this chapter focuses on the big shift in value creation in society and the opportunities that this brings for the operating logic. The implication is that we need to rethink marketing and managerial logic. There is an opportunity to reframe value creation from profit to purpose and to build better business for a better world. The chapter closes by reflecting on the complex innovation challenge that stems from this opportunity. We need new innovation logic.
