Business and Management (R0)

&lt;p&gt;Without respecting and nurturing ‘place’ we cannot achieve a state of ecological sustainability. Place-based organizations are not run on a purely materialistic basis. The non-materialistic features of a place, its aesthetics, cultural heritage, community feelings, transcendence, should be integrated into sustainability management. This far-reaching two-volume work breaks with the economic logic of efficiency and profit maximization, and suggests that organizations should inform their sustainability by encompassing feelings of identity with and attachment to place.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;According to this vision, the editors have compiled scholarly contributions aimed to support the ecological transformation of humankind by exploring both theoretical and practical models that integrate the sense of the place, ethics and spirituality in new ways of organizing of economic and social life. This second volume takes the theoretical direction, established in the first model, and puts it into practice with cases from business and society. It will be of interest to scholars, practitioners and students of sustainability, business ethics and spirituality.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Place Based Approaches to Sustainability Volume II

Bachelor Thesis from the year 2023 in the subject Business economics - Supply, Production, Logistics, grade: 1,7, University of applied sciences, Cologne, language: English, abstract: This thesis deals with sustainability as a prerequisite for supply chain resilience. Considering the COVID-19 pandemic, which has shown to a considerable extent how fragile existing supply chains are, the need for implementation of resilient and sustainable supply chains becomes necessary. Due to climate change, environmentally sustainable action should be focused on and need to be implemented in companies’ value chains. In this thesis, it is examined to what extent sustainability must be considered as a prerequisite for supply chain resilience.Global political backgrounds are highlighted. Theoretical backgrounds are given regarding sustainability, global supply chains and approaches for measuring sustainability. Furthermore, characteristics of a sustainable and resilient supply chain are presented, by literature review and considering actual, global developments. Finally, recommendations for action are given. Global supply chains need to incorporate regional aspects as far as possible and promote cooperation along the value chain. This is promoted by digitalization processes, effective risk management and binding supply chain alignments toward sustainability.

'Offers hope and good sense in equal measure'&nbsp; Ian Bremmer&nbsp; 'A sensible plan for reform that can help us create a fairer and more equitable world'&nbsp; Sheryl Sandberg Problems are mounting. We face sputtering growth, an escalating climate emergency, worsening inequality, poor policy responses, increasing nationalism and a decline in global co-operation. But a permacrisis need not be permanent. In this book, three of the most internationally respected and experienced thinkers of our time, Gordon Brown, Mohamed A. El-Erian and Michael Spence, writing with Reid Lidow, explain where we’ve gone wrong and set out what could be done to bring about a brighter future for generations to come. They look beyond today’s headlines and political rhetoric to offer a bold, big-picture vision and nuanced, achievable solutions for fixing our broken approaches to growth, economic management, and governance. The world is changing. What that change looks like is up to us.

Essay from the year 2024 in the subject Economy - Environment economics, grade: A, , course: Economics, language: English, abstract: This essay delves into the concept of climate justice by examining the unequal burdens of climate change on vulnerable communities, particularly in the Global South. Using Bangladesh as a case study, it explores the moral, social, and environmental dilemmas posed by climate change. The essay emphasizes the urgent need for equitable global solutions to address these disparities. 

The deadly cyclone that wreaked havoc on Bangladesh's low-lying coastal villages last monsoon season serves as a harsh reminder of climate change's unequal impact. Homes were swallowed up by the rushing sea, fertile plains swamped in seawater, and lives were broken by the severity of a storm exacerbated by global warming. Communities from the Global South, such as those in Bangladesh, are dealing with the immediate and terrible effects of a catastrophe that they had little control over, while the industrialized countries of the Global North keep emitting greenhouse gases as historic rates. The stark mismatch in who causes and suffers the most from the climate problem is highlighted by this discrepancy, which is at the core of climate injustice. All people are affected by the global phenomena of climate change, which can take many different forms and exacerbate already-existing disparities while also causing new ones. It is not merely an environmental concern; it is a fundamental moral and social dilemma that necessitates a fair and equitable response.

Climate Justice: Who Pays the Price for Global Warming?

&lt;p&gt;The Circular Economy (CE) and CE-related approaches are increasingly prominent in corporate strategy, with potential environmental, social, and economic benefits to the organization. However, a comprehensive framework that incorporates CE with governance and reporting practices, providing accurate assessments of CE’s success in achieving sustainability targets and other goals, is not yet in place. This book addresses that gap, analyzing the relationship between CE and sustainable development practices, company performance, and to what extent organizations have disclosed this information in annual reporting practices. It proposes different frameworks to evaluate the environmental, social, and economic impact of CE and how CE might be promoted, disclosed, and accurately assessed in reporting practices. It will be of great interest to researchers and students of sustainable development, governance, accounting, and business economics, as well as practitioners seeking a research-based framework for integrating CE into their business reporting.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Co-operatives are increasingly being recognized as important contributors to inclusive, sustainable and fair development. However, the co-operative movement faces a multitude of challenges, including the lack of access to credit. This book presents existing cases and new examples of the intersection between the co-operative economy and sustainability challenges.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Chapters explore innovative circular and low carbon sustainable economy cases and practical examples of the role of co-operative organizations within the European Union. It asks how policy factors influence sustainability innovations, explores the role of workers’ involvement in firm strategies and analyses the management style of cooperative firms in facing sustainability challenges. This book will be an essential resource for scholars and students of sustainability and the circular economy, innovation management, HRM and labour studies.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This book discusses the emergence of a new concept of law at the global level in the field of sustainable development. It examines the four-decade-long evolution of the concept of sustainable development from the Stockholm Conference of 1972 until the adoption of the Sustainable&amp;nbsp;Development Goals in 2015. It brings forward a step-by-step guide for exploring the&amp;nbsp;law-like quality of global norms from a legal positivist and legal pluralist perspective.&lt;/p&gt;

&amp;apos;This book is an excellent explanation of why capitalism is not just successful, but morally right&amp;apos; Elon Musk&amp;apos;A joyful counterblast... packed with vivid examples... decisive&amp;apos; The Economist&amp;apos;Compelling... Masterful&amp;apos; Daily Mail&amp;apos;A timely reminder of the benefits of free and open trade&amp;apos; Financial TimesA vital exploration of capitalism and the benefits it brings to global society.Marx and Engels were right when they observed in The Communist Manifesto that free markets had in a short time created greater prosperity and more technological innovation than all previous generations combined. A century and a half later, all the evidence shows that capitalism has lifted millions from hunger and poverty.Nonetheless, today&amp;apos;s story about global capitalism, shared by right-wing and left-wing populists - and by large sections of the political and economic establishment - accepts that prosperity has been created, but says it ended up in far too few hands. This in turn has made it popular to talk about the global economy as a geopolitical zero-sum game, where we must fight to control new innovations, introduce trade barriers and renationalize supply chains. More generally, capitalism is also accused of fuelling glaring inequality, populist revolts, climate change and China&amp;apos;s global conquest.In this incisive and passionate investigation, Johan Norberg instead restates the case for capitalism and the vital role played by the free market in today&amp;apos;s uncertain world. Ultimately, he argues that a move away from global capitalism would not only squeeze the growth out of the economy but also deepen an already large social exclusion for the vulnerable - for the world&amp;apos;s poor, it would be a killing blow.

&lt;p&gt;This book explores how China-Brazil relations have been impacted by the oil-related bilateral trade, investments, infrastructure projects and financing – an increasingly consequential aspect of Sino-Brazilian relations, which sheds light on China's energy security concerns and its relationship with oil-rich countries more generally. This book depicts in detail how China’s quest for petroleum has been helping Brazil become an oil power. Written by a Brazilian career diplomat that completed a PhD in Mandarin on the topic of this publication and whose insights into Chinese economics, politics and energy policies are deep, this book will interest scholars, diplomats, economists and professionals in the oil sector.&lt;/p&gt;
