      abstract = {This book offers an in-depth analysis of the Brazilian  sugarcane complex with a special focus on technological  advances that promote sustainable development. It first  examines the question why sugarcane-based ethanol from  Brazil is considered a superior alternative to fossil fuel  compared to other biofuels produced on an industrial scale,  and subsequently analyzes the most dynamic areas within the  sugarcane sector with regard to relevant actors,  technologies and markets in order to determine if the  sector can be considered an innovation system. The  empirical research presented here is based on multiple  research methods and derives its data from interviews with  Brazilian experts of the sugarcane sector and by a thorough  literature review. The book will be of special interest to  researchers and practitioners interested in understanding  the key mechanisms in successful innovation systems that  promote a transition towards sustainable development and  mobility.},
