Politicians at Nordland County invited representatives from six different regions in Nordland to participate in caf\u00e9 dialogues. <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Design\/methodology\/approach<\/jats:title>\n \u2013 The empirical material is collected from caf\u00e9-dialogues in Northern Norway in which representatives from civil society, business organizations, local government, and NGOs participated. The data processing is based on triangulation of hermeneutic interpretation, frequencies, and factor analysis. <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Findings<\/jats:title>\n \u2013 The findings indicate that most people want a \u201cgreener\u201d future; this can be described as sustainable societies based on ecological production, distribution, consumption, and redistribution. People take on a more radical position in their ideas about the future than most politicians. The factor analysis grouped the participants into the following categories; \u201cEcological economics\u201d, \u201cSmall is beautiful\u201d, \u201cEntrepreneurs\u201d, and \u201cGrowth and control\u201d. A large number of the participants are categorized either as \u201cCirculation economics\u201d or \u201cSmall is beautiful\u201d. <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Practical implications<\/jats:title>\n \u2013 To solve the challenges of modern society politicians can instigate more radical solutions than they are in the habit of doing. The participants in the caf\u00e9 dialogues describe fundamental changes in order to attain viable local societies per 2030. <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Originality\/value<\/jats:title>\n \u2013 In this paper the authors demonstrate that cultural creatives in the USA give a relevant context for interpreting attitudes to change in small societies in Northern Norway.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1108\/ijse-08-2013-0193","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,5,22]],"date-time":"2015-05-22T04:57:53Z","timestamp":1432270673000},"page":"583-596","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Developing sustainable societies \u2013 a dialogical network perspective"],"prefix":"10.1108","volume":"42","author":[{"given":"Are S.","family":"Ingulfsvann","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ove","family":"Jakobsen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"\u00d8ystein","family":"Nystad","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"140","reference":[{"key":"key2020122302443972000_b1","unstructured":"Berry, T.\n (2007a), \u201cTeilard in the ecological age\u201d, in \n Fabel, A.\n and \n John, D.
