Fri, 17 Oct 2025 20:13:51 +0900

edited by Ranjula Bali Swain and Peter Dobers. Routledge handbook of the UN Sustainable Development Goals research and policy. Routledge; Routledge, 2025, Routledge environment and sustainability handbooks. ISBN:9781032257037; 1032257032; 9781032258874; 103225887X
"This Handbook brings together a collection of seminal research on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and investigates the effectiveness of the 17 goals in achieving transformative change towards sustainable development. As a collection of inter- and transdisciplinary research from around the world, this volume explores the applications, implications, and best practices of the goals at thematic, regional, and national levels, providing specific examples from a diverse range of places such as Australia, Brazil, China, DRC, India, Italy, the Sahel region of Africa, and USA among others. The book serves as a mid-term evaluation of the SDGs, bringing to the fore comprehensive experiences and evidence related to the SDGs, whilst highlighting the interlinkages between the different goals. Divided into two parts, Part 1 of the Handbook brings together groundbreaking research to define, identify, and present conceptual frameworks for a sustainable future, whilst Part 2 focuses on the policies, practices, and the implementation of the SDGs. The chapters identify key aspects missing from Agenda 2030, such as global power imbalances, cultural diversity and Indigenous rights, and unsustainable levels of consumption; they also critically evaluate the overall delivery and effectiveness of the SDGs whilst outlining potential future directions for the post-SDG 2030 Agenda. This Handbook is aimed at a diverse and global audience of academics and students of economics, business studies, political science, and development studies. It will also serve as a valuable reference for leaders in industry, the public sector, civil society, and international policymakers keen to gain a better understanding of the SDGs"--

Toshiyuki Sueyoshi, Mika Goto. Environment and sustainability for ESG and SDGs : measured by data envelopment analysis in time horizon. Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd., [2025]. ISBN:9789819624638; 9819624630
"This book takes a non-parametric approach to analyze integrated measures of economic growth, energy use, and sustainability. Recently, many corporate leaders, policymakers, organizations, and individuals have become concerned about environmental issues, simultaneously paying attention to economic prosperity and the green growth of the economy. This book combines methodology and application. Methodologically, the book introduces non-parametric approaches -- for instance, data envelopment analysis-discriminant analysis (DEA-DA) and data envelopment analysis-environmental assessment (DEA-EA). From a practical perspective, the book provides readers such as researchers and graduate students with models under the proposed non-parametric analytical frameworks and examines environmental issues and economic development. Included are application studies of these approaches using national-, regional-, and corporate-level datasets. Also discussed are policy implications and future directions of sustainable development based on empirical results." --

Sustainable development in economic growth theory / Yoshihiro Hamaguchi

Mon, 01 Dec 2025 23:27:02 +0900

Yoshihiro Hamaguchi. Sustainable development in economic growth theory. Springer, [2025]. ISBN:981967638X; 9789819676385
This book is made up of five parts and 17 chapters. In each part, the basic R&D-based growth model is explained and the basic model is expanded by incorporating pollution emissions and environmental policy. In all the chapters, the overall picture of the economic model is presented in diagrams and environmental taxes or emissions trading are considered as environmental policy. Part 1 presents the books issues and research agenda based on a concise survey of research trends. The variety expansion model and the mechanism of sustainable development through labour migration from the goods sector to the R&D sector via environmental policy and interest rate manipulation are explained. Part 2 shows that the growth-promoting effect of environmental policy in a variety expansion model with physical capital is influenced by household preferences including leisure, social status, and non-homothetic preferences. In Part 3, after the R&D-based location model is explained, pollution emissions and emissions trading are introduced and the mechanisms of the pollution haven hypothesis and the sustainable tourism through direct regulation and industrial agglomeration are explained. Part 4 highlights that, under the overlapping double regulation, environmental taxes inhibit the pollution reduction effect of emissions trading, while the additional burden of double regulation provides an incentive to evade taxes. In Part 5, the R&D-based model with heterogeneous firms is explained. Environmental policies affect industrial structure under a discriminatory environmental tax rate for local and export firms and the Porter hypothesis mechanism is explained. In the conclusion, the main results of this book are outlined. In addition to the empirical implications and policy recommendations, the limitations of this book and future directions are discussed

Eco-social policy in the OECD and the World Bank : global governance and social-ecological transformation / Robin Schulze Waltrup

Thu, 19 Feb 2026 17:46:59 +0900

Robin Schulze Waltrup. Eco-social policy in the OECD and the World Bank : global governance and social-ecological transformation. Palgrave Macmillan, [2025]. ISBN:3031954289; 9783031954283
"This book explores eco-social policy and its role in the global governance system. By focusing on the eco-social policy discourses of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) and the World Bank, this book provides a comprehensive analysis of how and to what extent these influential international organisations integrate environmental and social concerns and promote an integrated eco-social policy perspective. While the OECD and the World Bank promote crucial elements of eco-social policy integration, the book argues that they fall short of pushing toward a social-ecological transformation within global governance that profoundly focuses on the decommodification of nature and labour. Drawing on different concepts, including Polanyi's notion of the double movement, it shows how there are partly contradictory policy perspectives on eco-social policy integration in both organisations, which eventually stabilise the existing capitalist mode of production, albeit with green conditions. Through its in-depth exploration of the eco-social policy discourses of the OECD and the World Bank, this book serves as an essential resource for understanding and questioning the scope of sustainable and equitable global policy frameworks for both researchers and practitioners." --

Circular economy strategy for SDG business management : new theories and system techniques / Young Won Park, Kin'ya Tamaki

Fri, 12 Sep 2025 22:34:50 +0900

Young Won Park, Kin'ya Tamaki. Circular economy strategy for SDG business management : new theories and system techniques. Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd., [2025]. ISBN:9819641934; 9789819641932
"This book delineates the framework to research and develop new theories and system techniques for a circular economy (CE) strategy to fulfill Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in the era of digital, sustainable, and green transformation (DX, SX, and GX). For that purpose, five system techniques are presented here: (1) multi-generational and circular economy value chain management (CE-VCM), (2) cyclical resource supply and resource collection, (3) CE product planning and digital marketing, (4) lifecycle design of IoT (Internet of Things) products, and (5) a sharing platform and application software compatible with CE-VCM. The book also explores how to proceed with international trends in research concerning CE policies and standards in Japan, the EU, and the USA. Included are case studies of advanced CE companies in diverse industries, such as automobiles, electronics, food and agriculture, and software, to name just a few. Surveys of trends in CE policy and successful industry case studies in Japan are presented and compared with those in other countries. In the past, the Japanese manufacturing industry was primarily based on the business model of selling off the; products introduced into the market and the 3R tactics of reuse, reduce, and recycle to follow up on waste disposal. Compared to global movements, however, the responses to the CE trend in Japan, the Japanese government's CE policy, and CE management strategy in the Japanese industrial world have lagged considerably behind. In the future, when Japanese companies conduct global business transactions, it will be pivotal for them to implement a CE management strategy compatible with the ISO 59000 series. The Japanese government and global companies must respond to the SDGs, including Goal 12: Producer and Consumer Responsibility. To keep up with external environmental trends, Japanese global firms also must respond to the changes discussed in this informative volume." --

Sustainability : transformation, governance, ethics, law / Felix Ekardt

Thu, 14 Aug 2025 17:08:37 +0900

Felix Ekardt. Sustainability : transformation, governance, ethics, law. Second edition, Springer Nature Switzerland, [2024], Environmental humanities: transformation, governance, ethics, law ; volume 5. ISBN:9783031627101
"This book proposes a holistic transdisciplinary approach to sustainability and post-fossil societies as a subject of social sciences - at a time when post-fossilisation is becoming a core political concern due to the aggressive foreign policy of autocracies, also for reasons beyond sustainability. Furthermore, the book shows new ways, as perspectives of philosophy, political science, law, economics, sociology, cultural studies and others are here no longer regarded separately. Instead, integrated perspectives on the key issues are carved out: Perspectives on conditions of transformation to sustainability, on key instruments and the normative questions. This allows for a concise answer to urgent and controversial questions such as the following: Is the EU an environmental pioneer? Is it possible to achieve sustainability by purely technical means? If not: will that mean to end of the growth society? How to deal with the follow-up problems? How will societal change be successful? Are political power and capitalism the main barriers to sustainability? What is the role of emotions and conceptions of normality in the transformation process? To which degree are rebound and; shifting effects the reason why sustainability politics fail? How much climate protection can be claimed ethically and legally e.g. on grounds of human rights? And what is freedom? Despite all rhetoric, the weak transition in energy, climate, agriculture and conservation serves as key example in this book. It is shown how the Paris Agreement is weak with regard to details and at the same time overrules the growth society by means of a radical 1,5 degrees temperature limit. It is shown how emissions trading must and can be reformed radically. It is shown why CSR, education, cooperation and happiness research are overrated. And we will see what an integrated politics on climate, biodiversity, nitrogen and soil might look like. This book deals with conditions of transformation, governance instruments, ethics and law of sustainability. The relevance of the humanities to sustainability has never before been demonstrated so vividly and broadly as here. And in every area it opens up some completely new perspectives." --

The Routledge handbook of catalysts for a sustainable circular economy / edited by Hanna Lehtimäki, Leena Aarikka-Stenroos, Ari Jokinen, and Pekka Jokinen

Wed, 10 Apr 2024 19:49:12 +0900

edited by Hanna Lehtimäki, Leena Aarikka-Stenroos, Ari Jokinen, and Pekka Jokinen. The Routledge handbook of catalysts for a sustainable circular economy. Routledge; Routledge, 2024, Routledge environment and sustainability handbooks. ISBN:9781032212449; 1032212446; 9781032212456; 1032212454
"This ground-breaking handbook leads the way in accelerating the transition to a sustainable circular economy by introducing the concept of a catalyst as a positive and enhancing driving force for sustainability. Catalysts create and maintain favourable conditions for complex systemic sustainability transition changes, and a discussion and understanding of catalysts is required to move from a linear economy to a sustainable and circular economy. With contributions from leading experts from around the globe, this volume presents theoretical insights, contextualized case studies, and participatory methodologies, which identify different catalysts, including technology, innovation, business models, management and organisation, regulation, sustainability policy, product design, and culture. The authors then show how these catalysts accelerate sustainability transitions. As a unique value to the reader, the book brings together public policy and private business perspectives to address the circular economy as a systemic change. Its theoretical and practical perspectives are coupled with real-world case studies from Finland, Italy, China, India, Nigeria, and others, to provide tangible insights on catalysing the circular economy across organizational, hierarchical, and disciplinary boundaries. With its broad interdisciplinary and geographically diverse scope, this handbook will be a valuable tool for researchers, academics, and policymakers in the fields of circular economy, sustainability transitions, environmental studies, business, and the social sciences more broadly"

Financial stability, economic growth and sustainable development / edited by Marc Baudry, Sławomir Ireneusz Bukowski, and Marzanna Barbara Lament

Mon, 26 Aug 2024 22:32:13 +0900

edited by Marc Baudry, Sławomir Ireneusz Bukowski, and Marzanna Barbara Lament. Financial stability, economic growth and sustainable development. Routledge; Routledge, 2024, Routledge studies in the European economy ; 70. ISBN:9781032572758; 9781032572765
"Following multiple global crises, there is an urgent need to review our economic and financial paradigms to improve outcomes for the three pillars of sustainable development: economic, social and environmental. In response, various strands of new economic thinking have emerged such as degrowth, the collaborative economy, solidarity economy, sharing economy and social entrepreneurship. This book explores the various economic and financial dimensions of sustainable development drawing on new and existing theories. This comprehensive book is divided into four sections, each presenting the results of a team of international researchers, tackling the issue from a global, macroeconomic and microeconomic approach. The first part examines the determinants of sustainable development in the global economy, while the second looks at enterprise in a sustainable world. The third section analyzes the financial markets and the fourth addresses economic policy and sustainable development. A wide array of sustainability concerns are discussed in-depth, from analyzing changes in Environmental Social and Governance reporting and assessing their impact on the information systems and reporting of economic entities; exploring the transition to "Industry 5.0", and how technological innovation can be deployed to support a better fit and "win-win" interaction between industry and society, shifting focus from economic and technological factors to important environmental and social dimensions. The monograph is an invaluable resource for scholars, researchers and students of applied, development, growth, resource and welfare economics. The policy recommendations will be of benefit to policymakers concerned with issues of sustainable development generally and the Sustainable Development Goals specifically"--

Handbook on international development and the environment / edited by Benedicte Bull, Mariel Aguilar-Støen

Wed, 19 Jun 2024 22:31:26 +0900

edited by Benedicte Bull, Mariel Aguilar-Støen. Handbook on international development and the environment. Edward Elgar Publishing, [2023]; ©2023, Elgar handbooks in development. ISBN:1800883773; 9781800883772
"Fifty years after the Stockholm Conference first placed the environment on the international development agenda, this handbook continues the debate. The handbook discusses both the profound environmental and theoretical critique against development as modernization and economic growth, and how perspectives on nature have changed from an infinite resource to a fragile subject. Weighing up the successes and failures linked to environmental concerns in development and environment policy and practice, it recognizes the roots of international development as a Western project linked to the expansion of an environmentally destructive capitalism. Through active dialogue across geographical areas, disciplines and epistemologies, chapters critically assess current perspectives on the topic, including decolonialism, degrowth and post-development. Grounded in recent research on topics such as agriculture, fisheries, infrastructure, forest protection, supply chain management, climate negotiations and the renewable transition, the handbook integrates a range of different viewpoints on international development and the environment to provide a fresh take on this contentious relationship. With an international scope, this expansive handbook will be integral reading for students and scholars of development and the environment. It will also be a beneficial read for practitioners working in international organizations and development agencies"--

Empirical research on environmental policies in China : China towards decarbonization and recycle economy / Kiyoshi Fujikawa, editor

Mon, 17 Jun 2024 23:53:11 +0900

Kiyoshi Fujikawa, editor. Empirical research on environmental policies in China : China towards decarbonization and recycle economy. Springer, [2023]. ISBN:9789819959563; 981995956X
This book presents an empirical study of the effects of environmental policies on China and its neighboring countries, with a focus on waste and climate policies in China. The two major carbon policies have to do with carbon markets and renewable energy. The authors first examine the effectiveness of the Asian carbon market. Because of the consumption of goods beyond provincial borders, nationwide carbon markets are rather difficult to operate; therefore, a desirable initial allocation in the carbon market is proposed in this book. As for renewable power, its sources have not been fully utilized owing to a regional mismatch of supply and demand, so optimal locations of renewable energy are shown. The book also contains an analysis of the environmental and economic impacts of changes in resource circulation in East Asia. Although motorization is advancing rapidly, the vein industry for recycling used cars has not progressed. The authors estimate the amount of materials from used cars including new energy vehicles (electric and fuel cell vehicles) and propose desirable policies for used vehicles. East Asia is interdependent with respect to carbon and waste as well as the economy. China has regulated the import of waste recently and has started recycling its own wastes, putting pressure on neighboring countries to recycle their waste domestically. The authors estimate the environmental and economic impacts of such policy changes

Governance networks for sustainable cities : connecting theory and practice in Europe / Katherine Maxwell

Katherine Maxwell. Governance networks for sustainable cities : connecting theory and practice in Europe. Routledge; Routledge, 2023; ©2023, Routledge explorations in environmental studies. ISBN:9781032073606; 1032073608; 9781032310084; 1032310081
"This book explores the effectiveness of governance networks on the design and implementation of sustainability strategies. European cities are actively developing sustainability strategies to address the impact of climate change. One recent approach many cities have taken is the creation of 'governance networks': groups of public, private and third sector organisations, which collaborate to support urban sustainability efforts. Drawing on two case studies in Glasgow and Copenhagen, this book explores the concept of governance networks in theory and practice, revealing how stakeholder collaboration, leadership and innovation within these networks can help or hinder the process. It also highlights the many benefits of these networks, including increased participation in the decision-making process, increased levels of resources and expertise on sustainability issues, as well as stakeholder buy-in for sustainability policies. This book provides recommendations for improving the efficiency of governance networks and will be of interest to academics and practitioners working in the areas of urban governance and sustainability"--
