Approaches to Global Sustainability, Markets, and Governance takes a fresh and
globalapproachtoissuesofcorporatesocialresponsibility,regulation,governance,
and sustainability. It encompasses such issues as: environmental sustainability and
managingtheresourcesoftheworld;geopoliticsandsustainability;globalmarkets
and their regulation; governance and the role of supranational bodies; sustainable
productionand resourceacquisition; society and sustainability.
Althoughprimarilyabusinessandmanagementseries,itisinterdisciplinaryand
includes contributions from the social sciences, technology, engineering, politics,
philosophy, and other disciplines. It focuses on the issues at a meta-level, and
investigates the ideas, organisation, and infrastructure requiredto addressthem.
Theseriesisgroundedinthebeliefthatanyglobalconsiderationofsustainability
must include such issues as governance, regulation, geopolitics, the environment,
andeconomicactivityincombinationtorecognisetheissuesanddevelopsolutions
for the planet. At present such global meta-analysis is rare as current research
assumes that the identification of local best practice will lead to solutions, and
individual disciplines act in isolation rather than being combined to identify truly
global issuesand solutions.
