Transformative rather than incremental adaptation will be necessary to keep pace with rapidly changing social-ecological systems characteristic of the Anthropocene. Alongside mounting urgency for transformative adaptation, there is also growing recognition that it is no longer possible to achieve sustainable transformation without also addressing security and equity concerns. Thus, dimensions of security, equity, and sustainability (SES) are increasingly intersected in transformation research and practice. However, interpretations of SES dimensions and their intersections vary widely across disciplines, policy sectors, and problem domains, and knowledge of SES intersections is fragmented. To navigate this vast body of knowledge, a conceptual framework is presented that: 1) integrates a set of guiding critical questions for defining and assessing different framings for each SES dimension; 2) identifies modes of theorizing SES intersections; and 3) relates the previous two elements to leverage points targeted, either theoretically or in practice, for transformative change. Nine prominent integrated concepts and associated case studies were identified that explicitly addressed intersections among all SES dimensions. Integrated concepts addressed a diversity of leverage points, but only two mixed epistemological and methodological approaches sufficiently to provide explanatory insight into SES intersections while also supporting science-based change-making. Potential risks of ambiguity around SES framings and needs for addressing SES intersections in future transformation research are highlighted. Optimistically, transformation scholarship has moved beyond simply stating the importance of SES dimensions to focusing on the causal interactions among SES dimensions, which is leading to compelling new blends of explanatory and action-oriented paradigms to pursue transformation.

人类世转型中安全、公平和可持续性的交叉

为了跟上人类世快速变化的社会生态系统特征,变革性的而不是渐进式的适应是必要的。除了变革性适应的紧迫性越来越高之外,人们也越来越认识到,如果不解决安全和公平问题,就不可能实现可持续转型。因此,安全、公平和可持续性(SES)的维度在转型研究和实践中越来越交叉。然而,不同学科、政策部门和问题领域对 SES 维度及其交叉点的解释存在很大差异,而且 SES 交叉点的知识也很分散。为了驾驭这一庞大的知识体系,提出了一个概念框架:1) 整合了一套指导性关键问题,用于定义和评估每个 SES 维度的不同框架;2)确定SES交叉点的理论化模式;3) 将前两个要素与理论上或实践中的杠杆目标点联系起来,以实现变革。确定了九个突出的综合概念和相关案例研究,明确解决了所有 SES 维度之间的交叉点。综合概念解决了杠杆点的多样性,但只有两种混合的认识论和方法论方法足以提供对 SES 交叉点的解释性见解,同时也支持基于科学的变革。强调了 SES 框架模糊的潜在风险以及未来转型研究中解决 SES 交叉点的需求。乐观地讲,
