The ability to adapt effectively to the current environmental and resource vulnerabilities, asks for place-based approaches building on the specific resources, assets, capacities and distinctiveness of places. The paper discusses place-based approaches to sustainable development, based on a relational notion of place as the dynamic outcome of unbounded relations and networks. The argument is underpinned with a literature review and illustrated with examples from nature and landscape governance. A framework is presented to provide a more systematic understanding of the place-specific connectivity between social-cultural, political-economic and ecological processes that enable or hinder transformation towards sustainability. In this context place has a threefold relational relevance 1) as an arena of place-based debates, power struggles and negotiations 2) in the context of subjective processes of sense-making 3) as object of policy-interventions and spatial planning. It is suggested that a ‘politics of connectivity’ can accommodate collective action and new eco-economic networks in sites of negotiation, support sense-making and debates on place identities, and can result in new institutional arrangements. The chapter ends with a discussion on the relevance of place-based approaches to sustainable development in the context of spatial planning and European policies. |
