Abstract

Sustainability challenges are often complex and cannot be tackled by an organization alone. In the mining industry, the potential to threaten environmental, social and economic dimensions of sustainability is considerable. The data in this qualitative case study about a mining region in Germany consist of 88 newspaper articles, three company reports and one interview. This study argues that constructive stakeholder engagement in the forms of dialogue and collaboration may enhance the sustainability of mining operations. Opportunities to enhance sustainability can be found with both primary and secondary stakeholders. However, stakeholder engagement with stakeholders who oppose the mining operations can be challenging.

通过利益相关者参与解决采矿业的可持续性问题
可持续发展的挑战往往是复杂的,不能由一个组织单独解决。在采矿业中,对可持续性的环境、社会和经济方面构成威胁的可能性是相当大的。在这个关于德国矿区定性案例研究的数据包括88篇报纸文章,三家公司报告和一次采访。本研究认为,以对话和合作的形式进行建设性的利益相关者参与可能会提高采矿作业的可持续性。可以与主要和次要利益攸关方都找到提高可持续性的机会。然而,利益相关者与反对采矿作业的利益相关者的接触可能具有挑战性。

期刊介绍: South Asian Journal of Business and Management Cases (SAJBMC) is a peer-reviewed, tri-annual journal of Birla Institute of Management Technology, Greater Noida (India). The journal aims to provide a space for high-quality original research or analytical cases, evidence-based case studies, comparative studies on industry sectors, products, and practical applications of management concepts. The journal likes to publish problem-solving, decisional and applied types of cases. Such cases must have linkage with theory, at least one dilemma (also known as case issue) and a protagonist around whom the case issue will revolve. Publication of pure research, applied research and field studies with empirical data do not fall under the domain of SAJBMC. Fictitious cases are not welcome.
