Multi-criteria Decision-Making Approaches to Sustainable Consumption and Production

&lt;p&gt;Sustainable Consumption And Production.- Application of MCDM to Reinforcing Eco-efficiency of supply chain.- Interaction of stakeholders involved in sustainable consumption and production.- Application of MCDM to sustainable materials selection.- Application of MCDM to waste management.&lt;/p&gt;


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 - Online resources including lecturer slides and a lecturer's manual 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.

Strategies and Principles for Responsible Businesses

The Circular Economy

What works-and what doesn't-when companies try to do goodCan companies really be "socially responsible"-and should they try? This debate is newly urgent as consumers, employees, and investors push companies to take a stand on everything from climate change to inequality. In this lively and clear-eyed book, economist Ray Fisman cuts through the rhetoric around "doing well by doing good" to show what actually changes corporate behavior and what doesn't-and what corporations should really do if they have society's interests at heart. He will answer questions many of us may be asking:¿ Will consumers pay more for eco-friendly products? ¿ Will employees work harder if they're paid a living wage? ¿ Do ESG (environmental, social, and governance) funds make a difference? ¿ Should you pay more for fair-trade coffee at your local café? (Yes, you should.)Drawing on decades of evidence, Fisman examines which approaches to corporate responsibility make a genuine difference-and which are cheap talk, or worse. The result is a practical framework for understanding the tradeoffs between profit and purpose, recognizing which efforts to do good are likely to succeed, and how your choices can push companies to do better.

The Economics of Making Business Do the Greatest Good

The Model Company

Das Supply Chain Management hat sich etabliert, und große Konzerne ebenso wie mittelständische Unternehmen haben verstanden, dass in modernen Wertschöpfungsketten beachtliche Verbesserungspotenziale vorhanden sind. Sie haben sich auf den Weg gemacht, dieses Potenzial zu heben. Deshalb intensivieren sie ihre Zusammenarbeit mit Lieferanten, Kunden, Dienstleistern und Wettbewerbern.Hartmut Werner beschreibt in diesem Buch zunächst die Grundlagen des Supply Chain Managements. Anschließend werden Strategien für die Ausgestaltung moderner Wertschöpfungsketten charakterisiert. Auf dieser Basis erfolgt eine Vorstellung von Instrumenten, die zur konkreten Umsetzung der zuvor diskutierten Strategien dienen. Diese Überlegungen münden schließlich in ein Controlling der Supply Chain. Das Buch ist anwendungsorientiert konzipiert und stützt sich auf eine Vielzahl von Beispielen aus der Unternehmenspraxis.Die 8.

A Practical Approach

Responsible Destination Management

This is the updated and expanded edition of the only radical, multidisciplinary, international introduction to intellectual property in its socio-economic contexts. Bringing together voices from law, sociology, economics, political science, and cultural studies from across the Global North and Global South, experts and activists Mat Callahan and Jim Rogers offer a detailed history and analysis of IP before asking critical questions designed to underscore its importance in the broader struggle between capital and the commons. What are the broader implications of IP, whether for agribusiness, pharmaceuticals, education, or entertainment? Is IP law a fundamental pillar of our culture, or has it been used to protect and assert the ownership of, and thus limit, the spread of ideas and creativity? With a chapter structure moving from historical and theoretical foundations to industry-specific conflicts and policy analysis, this book covers the breadth and depth of IP areas, including patents, copyrights, trademarks, and trade secrets, as well as emerging issues such as digital rights and biotechnology. Key features include: - voluminous, up-to-date case studies, both Western and non-Western; - an extensive, jargon-busting list of abbreviations of specialized or technical terms; - a new chapter on copyright and socialism; - revisions and updates accounting for the seismic impacts of artificial intelligence. This is a foundational must-read for all researchers, students, and activists interested in critical analyses of IP laws and policies--not just their legal frameworks, but also their broader social, economic, and political implications.

Rethinking Intellectual Property

Two of the world's leading researchers on behavior and decision-making join forces to equip readers with the knowledge, tools, and techniques to live our best, most human lives in an age of machines. “The real problem of humanity is the following: We have Paleolithic emotions, medieval institutions and godlike technology. And it is terrifically dangerous.” —E.O WilsonOur choices and experience of the world are increasingly shaped by powerful interests and godlike technology. Somebody else is deciding what ‘good’ choices look like—and often that means good for them, not for you. From the social media apps hijacking your attention and algorithms quietly curating your reality, to the markets profiting from confusion and AI systems slowly eroding your thinking: your choices are shaped by people who understand your psychology better than you do, and use that knowledge for their own ends. Against this backdrop, it is easy to feel diminished and 'done to'.This book is about fighting back—individually and collectively—and becoming the best of ourselves. Becoming super-humans. Drawing on over 1,000 experiments run across more than 70 countries, Halpern and Costa show how you can boost your own agency and decision-making, how we can upgrade our systems and institutions so that it is easier for everyone to choose well, and how we can shape AI so that it amplifies human capability rather than replacing it.Super-Human ultimately asks us to make the biggest choice of all: in an age when machines can think, decide and even feel on our behalf—what kind of humans do we want to be? <ul><li>Human. Reclaiming agency and becoming a better decision-maker (Chapters 1-3).

Building systems that support us to choose well together. (Chapters 4-7). Humans are social creatures, who think aloud and together. It's a feature not a fault.

Ethics Theory and Business Practice

A lesson-packed success story for the twenty-first century, from a ninth-generation Kentuckian who imported the Silicon Valley playbook to the heartland, revealing how the entrepreneurial mindset can be applied anywhere, and even to our most stubborn industries. In his case: trash. When Nate Morris decided to build a business, he wasn’t looking to disrupt—he was looking for a problem to solve. Morris believed that the bigger the problem, the more the market would reward him for solving it. And one of the biggest problems, he came to believe, was one that every person, business, and community dealt with on a daily basis, but which was often overlooked: waste. American Trash is the moving story of how a ninth-generation Kentuckian—a boy who grew up being called “white trash”—applied the innovative thinking we associate with Silicon Valley startups to the ancient problem of waste. Raised on the scrappy resourcefulness of his grandfather, president of their local autoworkers’ union, Morris built Rubicon, a waste management company powered by digital technology. Unlike the bloated industry titans of yesterday, Rubicon was asset light: It wouldn’t own landfills, so it would be free of the perverse incentive to fill the land with chemical-laden trash, and it wouldn’t own trucks, so it would support “mom and pop” hauler businesses. Most important, it would be based in Georgia and Kentucky, thousands of miles from the near-sighted culture of Silicon Valley. In telling his story, Morris shows how he combined the great tradition of American entrepreneurship with the lessons of the digital economy—and did it far from the coastal bastions of the technology elite. The result is a blueprint for those seeking to tackle our biggest challenges with creative, free-market solutions.

Platform Supply Chains in the AI Era

This open access book provides a systematic and in-depth analysis of the critical risks inherent in modern platform-based supply chains. Employing rigorous analytical methods, including game theory and advanced, computationally efficient simulation techniques, it delves into three core areas: operational risks, information and data risks, and quality and compliance risks. The book moves beyond traditional supply chain paradigms to address challenges unique to the platform economy. This includes the strategic threat of platforms using seller data to launch competing products, the complex trade-offs in managing third-party product quality, the impact of reactive capacity on quality decisions, and the challenge of optimizing inventory across networks of unprecedented scale.
 
 It is an essential resource for graduate students, academic researchers, and advanced practitioners in the fields of operations management, supply chain management, and information systems. The content is suitable for readers with a graduate-level understanding of these disciplines.

Platform Supply Chains 5

In a world of tremendous change, uncertainty, and simplistic AI-driven answers, it is easy to look to an uncertain future with anxiety. In The Leader's Oracle, Chief Strategy and Innovation Officer Roopa Unnikrishnan shows that the wisest leaders instead look to the ancient past for inspiration. By channeling the Oracle of Delphi, these leaders ask better questions and challenge their organizations to transform. Offering a provocative lens on the future of strategic leadership, The Leader's Oracle is not just a book about strategy—it is a call for a cultural shift in how we lead, how we think, and how we build organizations. Through this uniquely powerful framework, readers examine and harness the timeless wisdom of the ancients to help their own business and career: <ul><li>operate at the edge of clarity</li><li>interpret patterns and possibilities</li><li>provoke transformation, not comfort </li><li>serve the powerful, but answer to the truth</li><li>protect future-facing wisdom in a reactive world</li></ul> This unique framework on business strategy and leadership explores a critical paradox in today’s corporate environment: in a world obsessed with operational excellence and short-term wins while struggling with historic transformational changes, we often neglect the voices of the long-term thinkers, the strategic questioners, the ones who highlight or introduce ambiguity to force clarity. The Leader's Oracle serves as a call to arms for leaders, board members, and aspiring strategists to embrace their inner Delphic voice—one that cuts through noise, evokes questions, and drives tectonic shifts, not just tactical maneuvers.

Using Ancient Wisdom to Improve Strategy and Decision-Making

The Leader's Oracle

Independent, inflation-targeting central banks were supposed to deliver stable prices, financial stability and lasting prosperity. Instead, they have presided over financial crises, stagnant growth, rising inequality and the return of inflation. Yet policy makers and politicians have proved remarkably reluctant to challenge the orthodoxy. Why has this model proved so resilient-and what should replace it? In The Gods That Failed, economist Josh Ryan-Collins argues that today's macroeconomic policy framework rests on five powerful myths that have shaped economic thinking since the 1980s. From the "natural" rate of interest and the management of inflation expectations to efficient financial markets and the taboos surrounding fiscal dominance and credit policy, these ideas continue to constrain policymakers even as the evidence against them becomes overwhelming. Blending colourful economic history, cutting-edge research and vivid real-world examples, Ryan-Collins opens-up the often opaque and technocratic world of monetary and financial policy for a wide readership and illustrates its fundamental flaws. At a time of repeated economic and financial shocks, ecological breakdown and geopolitical instability, The Gods That Failed argues that rebuilding our economies will require a wholesale rethinking of how central banks, governments and financial institutions work together to manage money, credit and the macroeconomy.
