Resumen de Transitioning towards sustainability in the mountain resort community of Whistler, British Columbia
In 2005, the resort community of Whistler introduced an innovative model of comprehensive sustainability planning and governance that attracted widespread attention. In this paper, we use the lens of path creation, together with insights from transition management, to examine the drivers of change in the creation and development of this new pathway towards sustainability. Specific elements of place and time are important factors, as are corporatecommunity relations and the influence of power and politics in both supporting the sustainability path and also causing it to stall or deviate.
