Research in Sustainability

This book has been written to provide the reader with research insights into understanding Sustainability, which is seen as a crucial issue for our time and for the future.

It brings together the views, conceptual analyses, case studies and practical recommendations of professors, doctors and doctoral candidates from the Business Science Institute Executive DBA programme. The authors invite us to contextualize Sustainability, whilst taking a critical and constructive perspective on this wideranging topic.

The book is divided into four parts. Part one introduces the key concepts of Sustainability. Part two looks at Sustainability in different sectors of activity. Part three looks at Sustainability in major corporate functions. And Part four explores how Sustainability is applied internationally.

Researchers and managers interested in research with an academic, managerial and societal impact will find new clarification and avenues for reflection and action.

Edited by Françoise CHEVALIER and Michel Kalika.
