Challenges and Paradoxes in Researching in Circular Economy

Abstract

Shaping and researching the circular economy involves multiple paradoxes and challenges hardly manageable by a single researcher or practitioner. This perspective argues for taking a more systemic viewpoint and multiple level perspective in order to better interlock skills. A systemic design of circular economy research requires multi-stakeholder collaboration and new opportunities for intervention.
