Abstract

The article discusses the critical geographies of the circular economy, highlighting the negative impacts of resource consumption and the need for sustainable practices. It explores the exponential rise in circular economy research and the challenges of transitioning to a circular economic model. The text emphasizes the importance of a more critical lens in examining circular economy debates, focusing on context, proximity, flows, scale, and spatial planning. It also delves into the social, political, and ethical implications of transitioning to a circular economy, calling for a more inclusive and diverse perspective in shaping circular economy futures.
