DOI: 10.1016/j.erss.2017.10.049
Abstract: Clayton Christensen’s term, ‘disruptive innovation’ has become widespread. Unfortunately, Christensen’s theory relies on far too narrow a conception of both disruption and innovation to be a central framework for thinking about low-carbon transitions. It is… read more here.
