This volume contributes to a reflective perspective on dilemmas in research on and the implementation of sustainable development. Its contributions develop reflective perspectives on what can be considered dilemmas in relation to sustainability, what other forms of contradictions sustainability research encounters and how they can be dealt with. Empirical case studies cover subject areas such as urban planning, law, bioeconomy and medicine, investigating specific conflicts, contradictions and tensions that harbour the potential for dilemmas. Finally, the book discusses any challenges for academia and research in this field arising in theory, research practice and research funding.
