Safe Harbor bei nachhaltigkeitsbezogenen Sorgfaltspflichten

Understand how circular economy principles reshape business strategy and practice. The Circular Economy by Suzanne Smit and Uthayasankar Sivarajah is a practical and theory-informed textbook for postgraduate and final-year undergraduate students studying Circular Economy, Sustainable Business and related business and management courses. Aligned with contemporary module outcomes, it addresses why circular economy thinking is essential for modern business and how organizations can embed sustainability across core functions. The textbook examines how businesses can plan, implement and manage circular transitions by integrating circular economy principles, metrics and decision-making frameworks into everyday business activity. Structured around four interrelated stages, it explores strategic planning, resource organization, leadership and control mechanisms that enable organizations to move from linear to circular models. Real-world examples from Ikea, the Ellen MacArthur Foundation, The Guararapes Group and Flying Tiger demonstrate how circular strategies are applied in practice across industries and regions. This textbook includes: - A four-part framework covering planning, organizing, leading and controlling circular economy initiatives - Clear explanations of circular economy theories, strategies and performance metrics - Application of circular principles to finance, operations, supply chain management and business storytelling - Real-world examples illustrating how organizations manage circular transitions &gt;Whether studying sustainable business or preparing for roles in strategy, operations or sustainability, this textbook equips students with the knowledge and practical insight needed to support and lead circular transformation in organizations.

This Open Access book explores the evolving landscape of non-financial reporting and ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) performance, with a specific focus on small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and micro-enterprises. Drawing on European regulatory frameworks, stakeholder theory, and empirical case studies, the book examines how SMEs navigate sustainability demands in a context traditionally dominated by large corporations and global standards.The book addresses the historical evolution of CSR, the challenges of ESG integration for investors, and the methodological development of a composite ESG indicator tailored to SMEs. It introduces innovative tools such as the Mazziotta–Pareto Index and participatory accounting frameworks like CARE and SEMA, offering practical insights into ESG measurement and reporting. Through comparative case studies and analysis, it bridges the gap between ESG theory and SME realities, contributing to both academic research and professional practice.Ideal for scholars in economics, finance, and sustainability, as well as practitioners and policymakers, this book advances the conversation on responsible innovation, regional development, and the future of ESG in the SME sector.

Non-Financial Reporting and ESG Performance

Seit der letzten Bearbeitung ist der Vormerkung ein eigener Band gewidmet. Als eines der zentralen Sicherungsinstrumente des BGB stellt die Vormerkung ein praktisch extrem wichtiges Rechtsinstrument dar, das auch nach 125 Jahren uneingeschränkt aktuell ist. Die Vormerkung befindet sich aufgrund ihrer Konstruktion an der Schnittstelle zwischen dem Liegenschaftsrecht und dem Schuldrecht - ein Gelenk, das entsprechend immer neuen Belastungen ausgesetzt ist. Neben der Abwicklung von Grundstücksgeschäften hat sich ihr praktischer Anwendungsbereich in den letzten Jahren erheblich erweitert - man denke nur an die Nutzungsrechte an Standorten alternativer Energiegewinnung erweitert. Alte Fragen nach der (Wieder-)Verwendbarkeit bestehender Eintragungsvermerke, dem Umfang gesicherter Ansprüche und der Versteigerungs- und Insolvenzfestigkeit erscheinen so im neuen Licht. Neben die Austauschsicherung tritt die Dauersicherung - und das obschon der Gesetzgeber durch die Neuregelung des § 1092 Abs. 3 BGB die Verwendung derVormerkung zurückdrängen wollte. Hinzu kommen immer wieder überraschende Entscheidungen des BGH - so zuletzt zum gutgläubigen Zweiterwerb der Vormerkung.

Die Gletscher des Berninamassivs, der Paarungsruf der Gelbbauchunke, der Blütenduft des Diptam - Klimakatastrophe und Biodiversitätskollaps zerstören diese Schönheit.
Wenn die Menschheit die Grundlagen der Zivilisation zerstört, erscheint der Verlust von Schönheit als minderes Übel. Aber die ökologischen Zerstörungen sind Ausdruck der Beziehung zwischen den Menschen und der Natur. Nur wer die Welt sieht, hört, riecht, fühlt und schön findet, erkennt seinen Platz in ihr. Schönheit schafft Verbindung und ist nicht in ökonomischen Kategorien zu messen.
In seinem Essay unternimmt Marcel Hänggi Exkursionen zu großem und kleinem Schönem. Er spricht mit Künstlerinnen und Wissenschaftlern, mit Menschen, die in der Natur arbeiten, und mit einer Frau, die ihr Sehvermögen verliert, darüber, was Schönheit ist. Ob, was schön ist, auch gut ist, und was gut ist, schön. Ob es richtiges 'schön' gibt und falsches. Und warum es so schwierig ist, über Schönheit zu sprechen. Ein Spaziergang rund um Wissen, Nichtwissen und Nachhaltigkeit.

Education in the Asia-Pacific Region: Issues, Concerns and Prospects

This book presents the results of a Hong Kong study that focused on refugees’ contributions, and potential, to support green urban development. It describes education about sustainability principles in non-formal skills development settings, and the benefits of this learning for refugees.

International studies highlight the importance of skills development for disadvantaged groups so they can effectively integrate into accepting societies. However, developing green skills that can help refugees engage in sustainability efforts in new settlements is new and proved successful in our Hong Kong study.

Theoretical and practical angles are used to explore the topic and emphasize the importance of a transformative design for skills development programs for disadvantaged groups as an educational response towards challenges of sustainable urban development. The book discusses the interplay between opportunity structures, agency, and the gendered experience and outlines the results of skills training on three levels – personal, community and society. This book applies a novel approach in searching for a positive view on refugees and their role in society.

The book also highlights social entrepreneurship and its impact on the personal and community levels, following skills training, in terms of behavioural change and participation in society’s sustainability efforts. Researchers, field workers at NGOs working with refugees, TVET practitioners and policymakers can benefit from this book as it includes recommendations for policy change.
