According to the literature on regime tran-sition, niches are sources of innovation that may lead to the transformation of the dominant regime, if pro-cesses at other level of the system –the landscape and the mainstream regime -are supportive.

Knowledge systems, and in particular the dynamics of local and expert knowledge, have in fact a key role in innovation mod-els.
