Global crises have a number of key characteristics: they are place-based, they are neither stationary in their distribution
nor linear in their evolution, they have important knock-on effects, they systematically affect economies and organisations, and they have regressive socio-environmental impacts. To address these challenges, this volume introduces systems innovation into the Italian scientific debate, rooting its main concepts and methods in the theoretical framework of spatial co-design and bringing together action research on ecological innovation and participatory local development.
