Nordic Capitalism shows how democratic capitalism supports freedom, shared prosperity, and sustainability through a comparative analysis of Nordic and American capitalisms. Drawing on real-world examples and personal experience, Robert Gavin Strand distills ten core lessons from the Nordic context to advance a more just, dignified, and sustainable form of capitalism. He examines how Nordic nations consistently lead in the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) rankings and societal well-being indicators, and how Nordic companies frequently top sustainability and stakeholder performance rankings. Challenging the assertion that there is 'no alternative' to American-style capitalism rooted in neoliberalism, he dispels the mischaracterization of Nordic societies as 'socialist.' Blending rigorous scholarship with compelling storytelling, this book speaks to scholars, business leaders, policymakers, students, and concerned citizens. The Nordic variety of capitalism serves as a North Star - offering practical guidance and hope for realizing sustainable capitalism. This title is also available as open access on Cambridge Core.

The Geography of the Port of London (1957) deals with the mid-century functions of the port studied in relation to their physical setting and in the light of their historical development. An analysis of the roles of the various dock and wharf systems is followed by a discussion of the present commerce of the port, illustrated by post-war statistics. The multiple background to this activity is also presented, including a discussion of the 1950s physical condition of the River Thames and of the markets and industries associated with the port. It presents a comprehensive picture of this at-the-time greatest British seaport, considered with reference to certain principles of economic geography.

Between Economy And Ecology: Policies And Practices Of Sustainable Development

Essentials

Die Gefahren des Klimawandels treten immer stärker zu Tage. Trotzdem ist es uns bisher nicht gelungen, die globalen Treibhausgasemissionen zu senken. Dieses Buchs will daher wichtige Fortschritte beim Klimaschutz aufzeigen, die in den vergangenen Jahren erreicht wurden, in der öffentlichen Debatte aber leider oft zu wenig Beachtung finden. Das Buch richtet den Blick auf ermutigende technologische, soziale und politische Entwicklungen und diskutiert, wie wir Klimaschutz in Bereichen voranbringen können, in denen wir noch hinterherhinken.

Der Inhalt:

Technologischer Fortschritt bei sauberen Energietechnologien 

Gesellschaftlicher Wandel in Bezug auf Bewusstsein für den Klimawandel und der Bereitschaft, etwas dagegen zu unternehmen

Politische Entwicklungen auf globaler, nationaler und regionaler Ebene

Sich selbst verstärkende Dynamiken, die schnell zu Emissionsminderungen führen können





Die Zielgruppen:

Studierende und Menschen, die beruflich mit Klimaschutz zu tun haben

Alle, die sich für aktuelle Entwicklungen in der Klimapolitik interessieren

Warum es noch Hoffnung für den Klimaschutz gibt

Gute Gründe für Klimaoptimismus

Sustainable business is no longer optional--it's the strategy that will determine who leads and who gets left behind.Climate change is not just a future threat--it's a current reality, reshaping markets, supply chains, and entire industries. Rising temperatures, resource scarcity, and mounting waste are driving regulatory pressure, investor scrutiny, and consumer demand for sustainable practices. For business leaders, this isn't just an operational challenge--it's a strategic disruption. Companies that fail to adapt risk being swept aside by forces they can no longer ignore.In The Ultimate Disruption: Rethinking Business in a World Transformed by Climate Change, INSEAD professors Atalay Atasu and Luk Van Wassenhove provide an essential road map for thriving in this new era. Drawing on decades of research and real-world case studies, they show why sustainability must be treated as a core business imperative, not a compliance exercise or marketing slogan. The authors introduce a framework for rethinking strategy, redefining value propositions, and reinventing business models to integrate environmental value alongside customer utility and profit.Through compelling examples--from Polygreen's zero-waste transformation on a Greek island to Schneider Electric's global decarbonization initiatives--the book illustrates how companies are turning environmental constraints into opportunities for innovation and growth. Each chapter tackles critical steps: building the business case for sustainability; revisiting value potential; overcoming operational and scaling challenges; and leveraging partnerships, tech, and new business models to deliver shared value and profitability.Sustainability is no longer a cost--it's a competitive advantage. The Ultimate Disruption equips leaders with the strategies and tools to navigate the climate-driven transformation of business ecosystems and emerge stronger than ever.

The Ultimate Disruption

This book presents an integrative and in-depth approach to understanding electricity markets. It combines engineering, economics, and regulatory and public policy, with business analysis. The first part of the book presents the key concepts in these fields relevant to the study of electricity markets. Starting with power engineering basics, the book proceeds to explain how these engineering fundamentals, combined with economic and regulatory theory, are used to design and operate successful electricity markets. With this foundation, business analyses of all sectors of the electric power industry -- generation, transmission, distribution, retail supply, energy efficiency, and demand response -- are conducted. The second part of the book contains several chapters on advanced electricity market topics that use the integrative approach developed in the first section. These advanced topics include the history of restructured electricity markets, regulating electricity derivatives, and how to run an energy services company.

Economic Resilience and Sustainability - Vol. 2

Routledge International Studies in Money and Banking

Contextualising the effective and ineffective approaches to Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) implementation across the globe from a behavioural finance perspective, this book covers a range of considerations that must be made when firms choose the sustainable path.This book begins with a critical examination of ESG investing and assumption that they consistently deliver superior financial returns. It then explores how cognitive distortions, incorrect information, and technological innovations may impact ethically motivated investors, leading them to make choices that are behaviourally vulnerable if not irrational. This book looks at established and emerging markets in diverse regions such as Asia, Europe, and the United States to discuss prevailing market narratives that may influence investor decisions. It also presents empirical insights from 400 survey respondents and 50 interview participants in emerging markets, highlighting how investment thinking continues to be shaped by local norms and environments.This book highlights the importance of context-specific engagement and provides practical suggestions on how to promote more rational ESG investing. This book will be of use to courses on behavioural finance, sustainable investing, and ESG in Finance.

Cooperatives are traditionally recognized as marginal players in the economic sector, but their role in policymaking and in social arenas has garnered even less attention. Over the past two decades, an extensive body of literature in management science and economics has arisen, designating non-capitalistic enterprises as subjects of particular attention. In the context of rising global challenges like economic inequality, environmental sustainability, and labor rights, the role of cooperatives has become increasingly relevant. This book examines the practical and policy dimensions and implications of cooperative economics and movement(s). It delves into the more politicized aspects of cooperatives, exploring how they intersect with global movements, social justice, policymaking, and grassroots activism and provides insights into real struggles tackled by this enterprise form. It offers an understanding of how communication in cooperatives plays a role in promoting principles, values and practices and how these are transferred across generations of cooperators. It provides a deeper understanding of the elements of intergenerational evolution within cooperatives in concepts on employment and labour as new policies are raising expectations. Further, it offers a broad variety of global case studies pertinent to issues of relevance to cooperative economics and management, profiling how different types of cooperatives on six continents can promote sustainability and self-organized community wealth-generation, connecting to development studies, ethics and political economy, while revealing how cooperatives can address the current challenges of the digital age, especially including issues of data governance and artificial intelligence. The book will serve as an invaluable tool for anyone seeking to understand the broader implications of cooperative models in today's globalized world.The Open Access version of this book, available at http://www.taylorfrancis.com, has been made available under a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike (CC-BY-SA) 4.0 license.
