Abstract

This paper identifies regulatory requirements as primary drivers for participation in domestic ETSs, supported by common values and reputation considerations. This extends the theory of institutional entrepreneurship by demonstrating how regulatory frameworks can incentivize corporate actors to adopt sustainable practices. It highlights the critical role of regulatory environments in shaping institutional entrepreneurship, suggesting that stringent regulations can effectively drive organizations toward sustainability. This perceived normative and cognitive pressure aligns with Levy and Kolk (2002), which suggests that climate strategies are formulated by managers from countries where such environmental practices are strictly required (Pinkse, 2007). Compared with previous studies, this paper reveals that collective institutional entrepreneurship can create opportunities for integrating sustainability policies under favorable conditions. Unlike Jolly et al. (2016), who highlighted the isolated and contested actions of individual actors, this study shows that sustainability policies and developments by legacy aviation groups often overlap at both micro (individual) and meso (organizational or institutional) levels. This intersection of corporate values with individual passengers, other subsidiary airlines and international community expectations underscores a collective institutional entrepreneurship that fosters integrated sustainability policies under favorable conditions.

机构创业与碳减排实践--来自韩国航空业的证据
本文指出,在共同价值观和声誉因素的支持下,监管要求是参与国内排放交易计划的主要驱动力。这扩展了机构创业理论,证明了监管框架如何激励企业行为者采用可持续做法。它强调了监管环境在塑造机构创业精神方面的关键作用,表明严格的监管可以有效地推动企业实现可持续发展。这种感知到的规范和认知压力与 Levy 和 Kolk(2002 年)的观点一致,即气候战略是由来自严格要求此类环境实践的国家的管理者制定的(Pinkse,2007 年)。与之前的研究相比,本文揭示了集体机构创业精神可以在有利条件下为整合可持续发展政策创造机会。乔利等人(2016 年)强调了个体行动者的孤立和有争议的行动,与此不同,本研究表明,传统航空集团的可持续发展政策和发展往往在微观(个体)和中观(组织或机构)两个层面上重叠。企业价值观与乘客个人、其他附属航空公司和国际社会期望之间的这种交叉强调了一种集体机构创业精神,在有利条件下促进了综合可持续发展政策。

期刊介绍: Transportation Research Part D: Transport and Environment focuses on original research exploring the environmental impacts of transportation, policy responses to these impacts, and their implications for transportation system design, planning, and management. The journal comprehensively covers the interaction between transportation and the environment, ranging from local effects on specific geographical areas to global implications such as natural resource depletion and atmospheric pollution. We welcome research papers across all transportation modes, including maritime, air, and land transportation, assessing their environmental impacts broadly. Papers addressing both mobile aspects and transportation infrastructure are considered. The journal prioritizes empirical findings and policy responses of regulatory, planning, technical, or fiscal nature. Articles are policy-driven, accessible, and applicable to readers from diverse disciplines, emphasizing relevance and practicality. We encourage interdisciplinary submissions and welcome contributions from economically developing and advanced countries alike, reflecting our international orientation.
