Organic farming in Bulgaria, as in many post-socialist countries, did not develop in a similar pattern as in Western European countries: there was no organic social movement. Here the support received from external foundations and EU accession initiated a top-down process for organic farming development. Yet, the organic sector has not developed strongly. We explore why organic farming support in Bulgaria did not foster the development of the organic food and farming sector in the country. Particularly, we argue that that there is a incongruence between the actors setting the agenda for organic farming policy, and those targeted by this policy. We also argue for the need of reconceptualising organic sector development in post-socialist countries or... |

This paper explores the potential of Actor Network Theory (ANT) in understanding how the process of interaction and translation between human and non-human actors contribute to the development, adoption and diffusion of science-based innovations linked to the transition to organic farming. The study relies on two case studies, the French Camargue case covering a range of technical and social innovations, and the case from Bulgaria focusing on the development of a technical and product innovation, i.e. a veterinary product for organic beekeeping. The paper shows the limitations of classical approaches in studying innovations since they underestimate the role of heterogeneous actors, their status, and how they interact with each other. We argue that focusing... |
