The new paper “Resilience Orientation in Bioeconomy Policies – A Global Comparative Analysis” by Maria Proestou, Nicolai Goritz und Peter Feindt has been published in the journal Circular Economy and Sustainability.  This new article explores the increasingly relevant theme of resilience in the bioeconomy context. By applying descriptive statistical methods, 78 national bioeconomy policy documents from 50 countries have been analyzed and linked to the concept of the Resilience Assessment Tool. According to this tool, resilience consists of three capacities: robustness, adaptability and transformability. The authors main finding is that these capacities differ significantly across countries’ policy documents. Overall, adaptability and transformability emerge as the most emphasized factors while robustness is less frequently addressed..
