The rapidly expanding stream of path development studies recognises that translating observations from past paths to conscious path creation requires conceptually linking agency to path development frameworks. Actors frame issues about and for the future, coordinate their actions in the present and make sense of what may have transpired in the past. The main objective of the paper is to explore the roles that actors play in green path development by answering the following main research questions: (a) Who are the core actors in green path development in the Nordic regions, ie. in industrial development around products, solutions or technologies that make regional economies more sustainable? (b) What are their main roles in relation to other actors? (c) What are the differences and similarities between the regions in terms of agency? The paper explores whether similar actors take on different roles in different regions and whether different actors may assume similar roles. For the empirical analysis, we identified seven roles in change agency. The empirical results showed that institutional entrepreneurship was the core of change agency in conjunction with innovative entrepreneurship and place-based leadership. The other four roles supported path development efforts. The results also show that institutional entrepreneurship is not a solo activity but a collective form of agency and that well-functioning shared institutional entrepreneurship may have a chance to change institutions for green path development.

变革机构在北方绿色道路发展博弈中的多种作用

快速扩展的路径开发研究流认识到,将观察从过去的路径转化为有意识的路径创建需要在概念上将代理与路径开发框架联系起来。行动者为未来制定问题,在现在协调他们的行动,并理解过去可能发生的事情。本文的主要目的是通过回答以下主要研究问题来探索行动者在绿色道路发展中的作用:(a) 谁是北欧地区绿色道路发展的核心行动者,即。在围绕产品的产业发展中,使区域经济更具可持续性的解决方案或技术?(b) 与其他参与者相比,他们的主要角色是什么?(c) 各地区在代理方面有何异同?本文探讨了相似的行为者是否在不同地区扮演不同的角色,以及不同的行为者是否可能扮演相似的角色。对于实证分析,我们确定了变革代理中的七个角色。实证结果表明,制度创业是变革动力与创新创业和地方领导相结合的核心。其他四个角色支持路径开发工作。
