The city of Gothenburg is undergoing large changes, being a growing city with many initiated and ongoing urban planning projects. The study presented in this chapter explores how sustainability, as part of politicians’ visions, has become part of urban planning activities. To describe the travel and concretization of sustainability, from a visionary ideal to local practice, the concept of translation is used as an analytical lens. The results highlight the importance of unintended consequences. These may cause trouble in terms of deadlines and financial results, but they can also constitute learning situations generating new organizational solutions that can benefit the organization. |
