The real lesson is that good things can be taken to extreme. Too much industrial policy can be just as damaging to an economy as too much indifference to industrial policy.

Our analysis of 11 regions – incl. in-depth studies of Lower Austria & Ústí – shows how complex, uneven, and contested these processes are.

We argue for a transformative resilience framework: transitions depend on the interplay of inherited structures (vulnerability & preparedness) and dynamic agency (responsiveness). This matters for policy. 🧩

But structure isn’t everything. Agency matters. We unpack responsiveness – how actors recognize challenges, mobilize solutions, dismantle old paths, and orchestrate change. Without this, transitions stall. 🔧

Exposure is one thing. Capacity is another. Our preparedness index shows stark differences in how well regions are equipped with assets, resources, and capacities to build green futures. Many highly vulnerable places are also ill-prepared. 🎯

Many regions still heavily rely on carbon- and energy-intensive industries. We map where this legacy creates high vulnerability – places facing serious disruption risks if transitions fail to take root. ⚠️
