Our concern is that most transition models are too static. Although they capture a move of focus from static equilibria to transitions between dynamic equilibria, they are still rooted in an ``equilibriumist'' approach. Improvement is possible with agent-based models that give attention to endogenous system processes called ``transformation processes''. These models can render far more dynamic pictures of societal systems in transition, and are no longer remote from descriptions in the emerging transition literature.
