The project studies why and how transformative change emerges (or not). It does so from two theoretical perspectives: a complex adaptive systems (CAS) and a process-relational perspective (PRP).One PhD candidate will study transformative change from a process-relational perspective. The focus will be on the notion of attractors which is key for understanding change. Most likely, the empirical research will focus on food system transformation in South Africa, for which we will join ongoing work in transformation labs.
