| Description: | We conceptualize a globally integrated circular economy through the notion of global circular networks (GCN) and identify the key mechanisms of circular (de-)coupling. We develop a novel conceptual framework by integrating concepts from literatures on global production networks (GPN) and the circular economy (CE). The framework combines four essential dimensions of these couplings - actors, resources, functions, and geography - which we illustrate with empirical examples. Our framework establishes a multi-scalar understanding of the CE, that can inform both empirical research approaches and policy making at different levels on how to rethink global entanglements and drive circularity-oriented changes. |
