United Nations Socially responsible business: a model for a
Book SynopsisThe global business environment has undergone a major transformation that requires greater knowledge to address the social and environmental challenges of our time. Due to severe climate change and widening of gaps between socioeconomic groups, businesses are pressured to change normative management practices and operations towards development that is both inclusive and sustainable. While shareholders have a vested interest in financial economic returns, stakeholders are more broadly interested in business' objectives, policies and operations which may impact the global sustainability. In this context, the notion of socially responsible business (SRB) is gaining relevance. SRB is an approach in which for-profit businesses are proactively operating and undertaking projects that are aligned to achieving the long-term economic, social and environmental objectives of society. This book aims to increase the knowledge of policymakers and corporate leaders on SRB practices.

Springer Verlag, Singapore Sustainability and Social Responsibility:
Book SynopsisThis book addresses key issues related to the choice between governments regulating and enforcing society’s sustainability and social responsibility objectives, and firms reporting on their sustainable and socially responsible activities so stakeholders can exert pressure on firms to achieve society’s goals. While these may be considered as the two endpoints of a continuum, it is clear that there are differing perspectives on the role of governments in sustainability and responsibility. At one end of this continuum are stakeholders who believe the only way to achieve a sustainable and socially conscious society is to establish and enforce regulations with the concomitant governmental organizations to oversee and enforce those regulations. At the other end are those who consider firms to be crucial organizations for achieving sustainability and socially responsible outcomes, and who feel it is the responsibility of stakeholders to determine the legitimacy of firms’ actions. It is probably not the case that any economies exist at either end of this continuum, but it is clear that the availability of reliable information is critical for any stakeholder to review the performance of either the governments or the firms. This book presents a varied set of papers that explore the issues that must be considered, regardless of which position a stakeholder takes.Table of Contents1.Background.- 1.1.

World Scientific Publishing Co Pte Ltd World Scientific Encyclopedia Of Business
Book SynopsisVolume 1: This volume is the culmination of many discussions among the editors over the years, especially at the Sustainability, Ethics and Entrepreneurship (SEE) Conference, related to the growth and institutionalization of environmental and social entrepreneurship. Research on these two forms of entrepreneurial action has tried to keep pace with what is occurring in the field. While the research is diverse, attracting scholars across many disciplines and from all parts of the world, it is still in the formative stages. This volume seeks to take stock of the literature and report the state of the art in environmental and social entrepreneurship. In particular, it seeks to explore new theoretical directions that blend traditional notions of economic efficiency and social welfare and new ways of measuring and empirically testing these phenomena. The chapters in this volume demonstrate the diverse philosophical, methodological, and theoretical techniques to studying these forms of entrepreneurship. We expect this volume will contribute to this burgeoning research and that researchers will engage in theory development for the foreseeable future, as new business models are developed, tested, abandoned, and evolved.Volume 2: This volume spotlights cutting-edge research, innovative methodologies, and provocative thinking by organizational scholars and leaders committed to advancing the global sustainability agenda. Each chapter focuses on advancing one or more United Nations (UN) 2030 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The chapter sequence follows a general logic of SDG numerical order and breadth. Overall, this compendium provides critical insights, practical strategies and tools, and timely inspiration to motivate individual and collective engagement with and achievement of the SDGs. With a decade remaining to achieve the 2030 Agenda, this volume supports sustainable development globally, through: identification of key challenges; theoretical, empirical, and practical exploration of potential solutions; and sharing of actionable findings. Each chapter makes an impactful contribution by spotlighting opportunities for advancing best-in-class efforts toward the achievement of the SDGs. Chapters represent diverse scholarly perspectives and include a representative range of focal SDGs, organizational contexts, applications, and initiatives from Africa, Asia, Europe, North and South America, and spanning national borders.Volume 3: Historically religious institutions have been at the forefront of social change, yet religion and spirituality are rarely discussed in contemporary entrepreneurship research. We challenge this oversight and argue that by ignoring the fundamental principles that define an overwhelming majority of people all over the world, our scholarship risks being partial, incomplete and thus misleading. This volume presents a selection of entrepreneurship perspectives — studies, essays and analyses — that integrate religion and spirituality with social change. We have deliberately sought chapters that are edgy and novel, to give different nuances on this integration of religion and spirituality with entrepreneurship for social change.

It is characteristic that the transformation of the economy within the framework of management encompasses both separately functioning leading companies of developed countries and each type of activity, sector, and direction. The transformation affects not only the development of international management but also approaches to staffing and interaction with human resources. The values of entrepreneurship are changing - from purely financial aspects to value and customer-oriented results. The new economy is a response to the processes of resource conservation and the implementation of the concept of lean production, which requires the use of innovative solutions to maintain competitiveness in the context of globalization.2.

In general, the pandemic gave an important impetus to humanity's awareness of the important role of humans and ESG-factors in economic activity. Effective strategic management of human capital is a key condition for increasing the sustainability of innovative development of the economy and society. The purpose of the study is to substantiate the ways of installing human capital, which perform a significant reproduction function in the economy of sustainable innovative development, into the strategic management system. To achieve the goal of the study, the article has solved the problem of systematizing fundamentally new approaches to the strategic management of socio-economic systems, aimed at increasing human resources; the systems of human capital characteristics that affect the degree of sustainability of socio-economic trajectories are structurally presented; the specificity of the innovation-reproduction function of human resources is revealed, the strategies for the increment of human capital in the management system for the sustainable-innovative development of the economy are substantiated and empirically verified. The novelty of the author's approach lies in the substantiation of the directions of integration of the structural model of human capital as an important resource-reproductive component of sustainable and innovative development of the economy into the strategic management system. The results of approbation of the author's developments can serve as the basis for the formation of an effective regulatory mechanism that ensures an increase in the degree of stability of the trajectory of innovation-oriented economic development in the context of fluctuations in the world socio-economic system.3.

Taking the Solow growth model as the basic framework, using the economic development data of Xinjiang, Inner Mongolia, and Heilongjiang in three provinces in China since 2010 to carry out empirical research to measure the contribution rate of various factors such as capital input and labour input to economic growth; The model is expanded to study the long-term driving forces of economic growth in several provinces, and explain the current and long-term kinetic energy conversion. At this stage, capital investment is still the main driver of economic output in several provinces. Several provinces should focus on scientific and technological innovation, optimize and adjust the industrial structure, integrate technological factors into the capital and labour supply side, comprehensively deepen technology-based improvements, and accelerate the transformation of economic growth power.4.

However, despite the daily growth of virtual business networks, Iranian consumers regrettably did not trust such deals in a way that should be expected but were still willing to purchase the products in person through traditional channels. Trust and security of websites are considered to be the most important factors for the users as such businesses are under the category of B2C, and thus the satisfaction, as well as trustworthiness for the consumer, is on the priority. The purpose of this research is to investigate and review the Effects of Obstacles of Intention to Trust for Purchasing Online Products. The Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB) model was used for the analysis of data by means of Partial Least Squares (PLS) Structural Equation Modelling (SEM). The population sample size for the study was 71 persons examined by an online survey. The findings revealed that there was positive significance between lack of integrity, lack of benevolence, lack of competency and intention to trust. In the meantime, intention to trust was significant with the intention to purchase. Consequently, it was suggested that e-tailers should try to enhance the dimensions of their trustworthiness to e-clients.6.

To manage the smart economy is necessary to analyze all these characteristics in global, makro, mikro and mezo levels. A modern economy is an economy that focuses on the everyday context of people's lives. Therefore, in the transition to a smart economy, it is necessary to study and analyze individual characteristics of the population, as well as its lifestyle. This is the socialization of the economy. In the world, subjective assessment is mainly used to analyze the socialization of the economy, but in this article the author makes an objective assessment of the socialization of the economy in Latvia and its regions, taking into account official statistics.This article describes and analyzes the indicators of socialization of the economy, as well as their impact on the well-being of the population in Latvia and its regions.7.

The difficulty stems from limited information and unknown factors. This paper aims to use Artificial Neural Networks to predict the cost estimate for construction projects. Due to their self-organizing nature, they can be used to solve problems even with low-level programming. This makes them useful in interpreting and generalizing inadequate input information. ANN's are crude derivatives of the biological neural network with a single-layered or multi-layered neuron in the form of the input layer, hidden layer and output layer. The neural network first has to undergo training from historical data to make predictions or show results. The size of the data set, the number of hidden neurons and the neural network architecture determines the success of the results. For the purpose of cost estimation, cost drivers were taken as inputs and their estimated costs were taken as the target value. The cost drivers were selected carefully through literature review and survey to provide accurate results for the estimate. Pareto analysis was performed to identify the most important cost drivers in a construction project. A problem was formulated based on these drivers and the data set was trained with a neural network using the MATLAB software. The training was carried out till the greatest correlation and least Mean Squared Error was obtained after multiple iterations. This trained data was used to predict the cost for a new project.8.

In this paper, we had studied new inter-cluster tie possibilities and drawn up a Eurasia cluster network concept. By examining common factors of all clusters located in EAEU, analyzing influencing effects on new inter-cluster tie formation and outlining significant factors. According to revealed factors, management tools were benchmarked in order to highlight the Eurasian cluster network concept. Since, the practice on such network, the cluster policies of Eurasian Union countries and cluster organizations management instruments were taken into account in the delivered concept, we conclude with a wide description of the concept that has practical implementation and highly likely could be adapted in Eurasian economic realities.9.

Country risk assessment is carried out by collecting information, processing it taking into account the chosen methodology, identifying risks, developing a strategy for the company's behaviour in the external market in order to minimize risks external for the company. The information base for assessing country risks is the data of international ratings, for example, the Global Competitiveness Index, the Doing Business Index, the Country Risk Rating (WMRC), and the International Country Risk Guide (ICRG) ratings. In modern conditions, the methods for determining the positions of countries in the rating data are criticized, which necessitates adjusting the methodological approaches to determining the rating indicators. The information collected in the form of indicators of international rankings represents a large amount of data. The processing of this data set presupposes the presence of certain software products developed in accordance with the selected risk assessment methodology. Risk assessment methods and risk indicators are independently determined by the firm following its strategy for organizing and conducting international business.10.

Even though the state goals and objectives are similar in most cases, the approaches, in turn, to the implementation of the policy are somewhat different. Thus, the digital economy is characterized by economic activity, the key factor of which is IT production with data in digital form, contributing to the formation of information and telecommunications infrastructure. The degree of digitization of the economy allows us to predict the dynamics of GDP indicators in many countries of the world. It is worth noting that according to the growth rates of digitalization implementation in the economy, Russia is among the TOP 5 countries. Scientists agree that the digital economy is the only possible option to meet the needs of society in the XXI century. Digital technologies are transforming not only business within the country, but also pose new challenges to the tax system. Thus, this paper considers the tools of tax incentives that accelerate the process of digitalization of the economy. Digitalization of all spheres of life requires the state to exercise balanced tax supervision and take decisive actions in the national tax policy, providing the participants of the tax system with benefits and subsidies for the formation of the competitiveness of the Russian economy on the world market.11.

The author believes that the main obstacles for a long time, as well as the opportunities for the successful implementation of the 4:0 industry in the Russian Federation, lie in public legislation: constitutional and financial. The main trend of the fourth industrial revolution is the supposed clarification of a person from the production process, the replacement of human labour with robotic processes and programs. States, on the one hand, carrying a social function, cannot and do not want to allow unemployment, which can lead to upheavals in the political system, and will also inevitably lead to a reduction in the sources of tax revenue of the budget, which, in turn, undermines the foundations of statehood. On the other hand, market capitalist economies are a one-way road. Each of the economically active subjects makes the production process as efficient as possible in order to maximize consumption. Constitutions in the modern sense arose precisely to protect capital, reflecting the results of the political victory of the new economically powerful class – the bourgeoisie. The new values recognized by the world community are expressed in the UN Sustainable Development Goals and are related to the future of humanity as a whole.12.

The relevance of the work is due to the need to create favourable socio-economic conditions for attracting and retaining foreign citizens on the territory of the Russian Federation that meet the needs of the Russian labour market in qualified personnel, as well as the potential willingness to apply the knowledge gained in the Russian education system to carry out highly productive work within their own countries. One of the primary tasks is the search for a universal and effective mechanism for managing human capital with modern means of infocommunications in the context of an export educational model. The purpose of this study is to analyze the strategic directions of personnel training for the Russian economy, the development of human capital by increasing the competitiveness of Russian education, and the identification of factors to stimulate the export of educational services. The achievement of the goals set by the study is predetermined by the analysis of the main measures for the introduction of progressive digital tools into the export model of education, the formation of conditions for the effective self-realization of participants in the educational process, regardless of their territorial location. An analysis of empirical data shows that at the present stage, the Russian Federation, the Republic of Uzbekistan, the Republic of Belarus, the Republic of Kazakhstan have the potential for integration in the educational space, which allows, using digital tools, to form an effective environment for training highly qualified specialists for various sectors of national economies. The predicted results of our study can be considered the development of a set of socio-economic, organizational and technological recommendations aimed at increasing the human capital index and, as a consequence, the quality of life of all participants in the educational system (both in the model of its export and for an effective strategy for the development of education within the country).13.

The principles and tools of DNA management are being expanded and applied in macroeconomic research.The structure and mechanisms of evolutionary management, DNA management, new evolutionary-genetic and institutional factors, sources of economic growth and their management are highlighted. The article substantiates the systematic and interdisciplinary methodology, the principles of its use, the logical and semiotic nature of economic genes and genotype, the content of semiotic methodological tools, first of all, the structure of genotypic concepts and logical forms of economic genes, the influence of these mechanisms on economic growth and sustainable development. The economic genotype sets the direction of the functioning and development of the economic system. Hence, based on evolutionary and genetic principles, a prognostic basis for the strategy of economic growth and sustainable development, programs for its practical implementation and their monitoring are created. In managing the implementation of strategic forecasting and planning, it is important not to unambiguously or probabilistically anticipate development scenarios, but to establish, first of all, a logical sequence of the stadiality of economic evolution. Strategic management involves the implementation of the goals of socio-economic development and priorities of socio-economic policy. Such goals at the macro - and micro-levels are, as it is justified, the content of genotypic concepts of the economic system. From the standpoint of the evolutionary-genetic approach, the management of economic growth and sustainable development involves the activation and stimulation of economic genes and genotypic structures, the elimination of socio-economic negative mutations in the development process.14.

Therefore, this study analyzed the effect of economic growth, urbanization, total natural resource rent, and eco-innovation on the carbon emissions of the country. Data spanning from 2003 to 2016 was used and several econometric methods were used to determine the impact of these variables. Findings revealed that economic growth and natural resource rent significantly increase carbon emissions while urbanization also increases carbon emissions but is not statistically significant and eco-innovation was found to reduce carbon emissions both in the short and long run. Based on these findings, it is recommended that policies are put in place in Luxembourg to promote environmental-related technologies to ensure environmental sustainability.

Springer Verlag, Singapore Preparing for a Sustainable Future
Book SynopsisThe term sustainability has become one of the most significant in the current era. It seems to be ubiquitous amongst academics, politicians, business leaders, media personnel and even the general public. It is no exaggeration to state that it is considered all over the world to be the most pressing issue to be addressed for the long-term future of the planet and its inhabitants. The topic is of course complex, and the issue of sustainability is under much debate as to what it actually is and how it can be achieved, but it is completely certain that the resources of the planet are fixed in quantity and, once used, cannot be reused except through being reused in one form or another. At present, much of the discourse of sustainability has focused upon the environment and in particular upon climate change and the effects that this is having. Thus, the discourse has tended to be about mitigation.Sustainability of course requires all three pillars of the triple bottom line—economic, environmental and social—to be addressed. Indeed, it might be considered that the effects upon the social, and how we choose to live our lives, might well be the most profound effect of achieving sustainability. This book therefore focuses upon some of the many aspects of the social and how we can adapt our lives to accommodate the requirements of sustainability. it therefore takes a very different approach to addressing the issues of sustainability, while of course not ignoring the other pillars.This book therefore sets out to examine various aspects of the changes to personal, corporate and institutional behaviour which may have to come about in our search for sustainability. It is tended to address some of the issues and how they are being dealt with in various parts of the world. As always, our concept is to share best practice and thereby enrich both the discourse and our progress towards sustainability. Thus, we focus upon the current situation while also considering the extent to which the focus is changing so much that we need to think about new approaches to our understanding of behaviour and differing effects in practice. The international origins of the contributors to this book make this an original contribution taking some of the best ideas from around the world.This book therefore addresses these issues from a perspective not generally addressed by researchers, or even by politicians and the press. It therefore provides fresh perspectives upon the important issue of our common future. As always, this approach is based on the tradition of the Social Responsibility Research Network srrnet.org (a worldwide body of scholars with membership of several thousand), which in its 20-year history has sought to broaden the discourse and to treat all research as inter-related and relevant to business. This tradition has always been to explore the subject widely and to seek relevant solutions, while also sharing best practice. This book is based primarily upon some of the contributions from the network at our recent conference and shows both commonality and diversity in approaches and effects.Table of ContentsPart 1 Changing practice: 1.
