dc.description.abstract | This article explains how infrastructures with a sustainability record may evolve over time into a lock-in that slows the emergence of more sustainable urban infrastructures. A study of waste incineration in the Göteborg Metropolitan Area, Sweden, serves as an illustrative case. Taking leads from Unruh (2000; 2002), four rationales of lock-in are identified in the case: institutional, technical, cultural, and material. The article describes how these rationales, one by one and in collaboration, lock-in waste handling in the Göteborg
Metropolitan Area to incineration. The article also suggests that these four rationales
could serve as a program to unlock urban infrastructures. Asking the question “Are we in
a lock-in?” is featured as a practical starting point for planning changes in urban infrastructure
governance that contribute to sustainability. | sv |
