    Description: This assessment report identifies six key areas of sustainable consumption. Transforming those areas is associated with a significant, positive impact on sustainable development. In this way, those key areas lay the foundation to set clear priorities and formulate concrete policy measures and recommendations. The report describes recent developments and relevant actors in those six fields, outlines drivers and barriers to reach a shift towards more sustainability in those specific areas, and explores international good-practice examples. On top of this, overarching topics in the scientific discourse concerning sustainable consumption (e.g. collaborative economy, behavioural economics and nudging) are revealed by using innovative text-mining techniques. Subsequently, the report outlines the contributions of these research approaches to transforming the key areas of sustainable consumption. Finally, the report derives policy recommendations to improve the German Sustainable Development Strategy (DNS) in order to achieve a stronger stimulus effect for sustainable consumption.

    Description: Digitalisation is disrupting business practices worldwide and transforming consumption patterns. While a global increase in wealth is leading to higher consumption rates, consumption-related decisions are increasingly based on digital information and marketing; furthermore, shopping increasingly takes place online and products and services are more and more digitalised. The transformative character of digitalisation calls for political action in order to ensure sustainable consumption in a new and dynamically changing context. Focusing on consumption is imperative in combatting many global challenges. Take climate change: consumption-based emissions (i.e. emissions from domestic final consumption and emissions caused by the production of imported goods) are rising more rapidly than production-based emissions in high-income countries. Meanwhile most political measures target production-based emissions (i.e. territorial emissions). The German council for sustainable development (Rat für Nachhaltige Entwicklung) has called for the §principle of sustainable development [to] serve as the political framework for digital transformation" as "digitalisation has the potential to engender disruptive developments in the business world as well as society as a whole that carry both great opportunities and significant risks". Thus, to implement the 2030 Agenda, in particular SDG 12, and the National Program Sustainable Consumption, it is key to seize the opportunities that digitalisation presents for sustainable consumption and tackle the challenges. This assessment report thus examines the following key question: "What are the implications of the digital transformation of consumption patterns for the implementation of the German sustainability strategy in, by and with Germany?"

    Description: Wie gestalten wir Wohlstand zukunftsfähig - obwohl es immer weniger Erwerbsarbeit für alle gibt? Wie müssen Wettbewerb und Kooperation zusammenwirken? Wie verbessern wir die Balance zwischen den Marktgütern und den marktfreien Gütern, die heute so stark gefährdet erscheint? Marktfreie Güter wie menschliche Zuwendung, selbstbestimmte Lebensführung, gesellschaftliche Integration und soziale Verantwortlichkeit sind nicht zu kaufen. Sie werden in Familie und Gruppe, in Nachbarschaft und bürgerschaftlichem Engagement hervorgebracht. Und sie sind nötiger denn je - zumal in den städtischen Räumen. Ausgehend von empirischen Untersuchungen, zeichnen die Autoren die Ansätze und Perspektiven einer Tätigkeitsgesellschaft, in der sich Erwerbs- und Subsistenzwirtschaft produktiv ergänzen.
