Description
Bioeconomy is a novel agenda for research under-explored from International Relations (IR) or International Political Economy (IPE) perspectives. This paper will address bioeconomy from these approaches with a special focus on Argentina and the dynamics involving its development and implementation within the country. From an IR approach, and more specifically, with an IPE framework, the objective will be to identify the international drivers of bioeconomy and which international processes, dynamics and actors intervene in the development of Argentina’s national strategy on bioeconomy. The overall objective is to identify if and how core-dependency dynamics apply and which are the implications of this regarding sustainability. IR frameworks are indispensable for the analysis of the politics of global bioeconomy, while global bioeconomy sheds light on challenges that lie at the cutting edge of IR and IPE theories.
