| Description: |
|
The concept of sustainable development implies a form of economic development that is ecologically sensible and socially fair. The reality the concept represents is currently encouraging companies to commit to assuming responsibility on two levels: social and environmental. But they are not alone in this process--NGOs, trade unions, consumer organizations, governments--are also innovating by adopting an ethically-driven approach to societal responsibility. How is it possible to get actors to cooperte? What are the factors that drive and curb this process? What avenues are available to us to encourage the emergence of those practices? This book endeavors to answer these and many more questions by describing the issues, identifying the dynamics at work all over the world, and suggesting possible scenarios for the future to ensure that a decent future awaits us all. Translated from the French by Philippa Bowe. |
