ESG Scores. A Critical Review of Sustainability Measurement

Ethnic and Indigenous Business Studies

This book explores how African entrepreneurs harness digital platforms and indigenous knowledge to leapfrog traditional development stages and build globally competitive ventures. It introduces five leapfrog logics—mobile-first markets, fintech for the unbanked, AI-enabled agriculture, circular-economy manufacturing, and diaspora-powered scaling—supported by case studies, policy briefs, and simulation exercises. Each chapter aligns with SDGs 8 and 9, offering actionable insights for students, policymakers, and investors. Designed for executive learners and educators, the book provides analytical frameworks and toolkits to convert Africa’s digital momentum into inclusive, sustainable prosperity. As part of the Ethnic and Indigenous Business Studies series, it adds a technology-driven, Africa-centric perspective to global entrepreneurship discourse.&nbsp;

This book offers a fresh perspective on the importance of aligning the planning and budgeting processes. Several studies have revealed that misalignment between these processes remains a problem for many nations. While the importance of alignment between planning and budgeting is widely acknowledged, the limited attention that academic researchers and practitioners have given to investigating this alignment is a persistent issue. While there is plenty of literature discussing the planning and budgeting processes separately, this book presents useful investigations into current alignment and primary factors influencing alignment between the two processes, using examples from Asian countries, particularly Indonesia. This book offers practical recommendations to help practitioners identify, manage, and mitigate misalignments between government planning and budgeting processes. This book serves as a valuable resource for policy reforms that aim to better align planning and budgeting processes within government agencies.

Understand and learn to respond to the global and local crises shaping the tourism industry. Crisis Management in Tourism by Kyriaki Glyptou is a comprehensive textbook designed for upper-level undergraduate and postgraduate students studying tourism, hospitality and event management. Aligned with modules on crisis management and sustainable tourism, it provides a structured framework for understanding how crises impact destinations, organizations and various stakeholders. Taking a multidimensional approach, this textbook explores why traditional crisis management models often fail in high-stakes tourism contexts. This textbook: -Examines nine interconnected dimensions in managing a crisis response: the legal, operational, financial, communication, strategic, reputational, political, ethical and human factors -Explores the contemporary challenges reshaping the industry, including climate change, geopolitical instability and community resistance to tourism -Includes real-world examples from VisitBritain, the Greek National Tourism Organization, TUI and Jet2, alongside crisis events such as the 2019 Australia wildfires &gt;This textbook equips students with the knowledge and practical skills needed to navigate crises, make decisions in dynamic, uncertain environments and build resilience in a rapidly changing global tourism industry.

Principles and Practices for Strategic and Resilient Planning

Crisis Management in Tourism

The lives of the world's poorest are already harder, hotter, and shorter, thanks to the actions and emissions of the world's richest. But just as the rich world's emissions are finally falling, emissions from poorer countries are set to increase drastically. We seem to be caught in an impossible bind-but it's not too late to find a way out. In Just Economics, renowned economists Abhijit Banerjee, Esther Duflo (co-recipients of the 2019 Nobel Prize), and Michael Greenstone propose a radical new approach to combatting the climate crisis, arguing that climate deterioration is inseparable from our polycrisis of mass migration, political instability and the resurgence of populist nationalism. We cannot make progress, they show, without compensating those harmed by climate change and incentivizing developing countries to reduce their emissions, to our benefit too. Morality and self-interest are no longer mutually exclusive. Based on meticulous original research and years of fieldwork around the world witnessing and quantifying the real impact of climate change on those most affected, this inspiring work shows it's not impossible to protect the poor while protecting our future-it's just economics.

A ground-breaking framework that redefines price formation as the structural foundation of sustainability, The Price of Sustainability argues that 'true pricing' can restore long-term and inclusive economic viability. Through grounding in rigorous fieldwork, financial analysis, and the economic insights of Rudolf Steiner, this book exposes the reality behind today's pricing; that they are systematically falsified and don't reflect the reality of sustaining labour, nature and capital. To counter this, Andrillon introduces the concept of true pricing as a diagnostic framework, discerning when a price reflects viability, and when it conceals impending collapse. In the opening chapters, the author guides you through both the contemporary failure of sustainable development and the shortcomings of economic approaches to this issue. Transitioning from diagnosis to construction, Chapter 4 formalizes the concept of a "true price"; it argues that a price is only true if it enables the full reproduction of labour, nature, and capital across time. The following chapters present the operational core of this framework, illustrating how it can be used across sectors as a practical evaluative method. Bridging political economy, sustainability science, and economic theory while offering a highly original contribution to debates on degrowth, post-capitalism, and ecological transition, this innovative text is the perfect companion for undergraduate students, postgraduate students, scholars and policy-makers working at the intersection of sustainability, political economy, ecological economics, development studies, and accounting.

Disasters engage with time in diverse ways and cannot be fully understood as events or processes. Tomás Usón explores how time emerges from disastrous encounters. Building on ethnographic research in the Callejón de Huaylas, he analyses how cities in this Peruvian Andean region have responded to and anticipated extreme events over the past century. Inspired by the Quechua word tinkuy, or gathering in difference, this study invites readers to see disasters both as socio-material arrangements and moments where historical figures gather in conflicting ways: a valuable resource for those interested in disasters, memory, science and technology studies, decolonial perspectives and Peruvian history.

Turn sustainability into a strategic advantage that strengthens competitiveness and drives innovation.

Competitive Sustainability is a practical guide for CEOs, board directors, senior leaders and sustainability strategists who need to embed sustainability at the core of business performance. Written by award-winning experts Alexis Eyre and Paul Randle, this book reframes sustainability as a source of commercial strength rather than a constraint, offering a new path forward for organizations seeking both impact and competitive edge.

Challenging decades of slow corporate progress, it explains why traditional sustainability approaches have stalled and shows how leaders can align sustainability with core business drivers to deliver value, resilience and differentiation in a rapidly changing market.
 
You'll learn how to:
- Position sustainability as a competitive advantage across strategy, operations and brand
- Build shared ownership between business and sustainability leaders for faster, unified action
- Apply practical frameworks to align commercial priorities with environmental and social goals

With practical guidance, real-world insight and a clear playbook for action, Competitive Sustainability helps senior leaders rethink their approach, close the gap between ambition and impact and create organizations that thrive by being sustainable and competitive at the same time.
 
Themes include: competitive sustainability, sustainable strategy, leadership, commercial innovation, ESG integration, long-term value creation
