The successful adoption of digital government services is critical. Even more so, in the era of the COVID-19 pandemic, e-government adoption needs attention from many sectors of society. During the pandemic, all government services have been increasingly provided through e-government. This paper examines the success of the electronic regional tax return (e-RTR), and the trust it has garnered as a significant factor in realizing a sustainable information society. The authors researched e-RTR users and data processing using partial least square regressions. The results demonstrated that trust in technology, information quality, information system quality, and service quality positively affected perceived usefulness and user satisfaction. However, trust in government itself has virtually no effect on perceived usefulness or user satisfaction. This indicates enhancing trust in the government should take precedence when the government uses e-government applications as a means of service to the community. Perceived usefulness and user satisfaction have a positive effect on net benefits, and net benefits positively affect the rise of a sustainable information society. This effect proves that a sustainable information society can be realized if the public perceives a net benefit when using e-government.

This study consolidates the state of academic research on the Ecological Modernization Theory (EMT). The EMT starts from a sociological perspective and enters into a series of political and economic factors that are considered crucial under the aegis of processes and practices. EM predicts that under political, economic, and technological conditions, competition among capitalists can be redirected to achieve eco-efficiency of pollution prevention. Based on a literature review from across 26 years, the study presents an overview of the evolution of the theme, background, and future perspectives. Using the databases Scopus, Web of Science, and Science Direct, a sample of 291 studies was mapped, which were read in full. Content analysis was conducted to abstract the current panorama of the theory of ecological modernization and to infer trends of the progress of the subject. The originality/value of this study is that we integrate diverse research perspectives into a comprehensive multidimensional structure of EM, with the purpose of analyzing the antecedents, artifacts associated with theory, method, types of studies developed, constructs explored together with the theory of EM and subcategories context, relevant stakeholders, technological innovations, and public policies. As future perspectives for studies, we suggest aligning EMT with circular economy, industry 4.0, and management information systems based on big data.
本研究巩固了生态现代化理论的学术研究现状。EMT从社会学角度出发,进入一系列政治和经济因素,这些因素在过程和实践的支持下被认为是至关重要的。EM预测,在政治、经济和技术条件下,资本家之间的竞争可以重新导向,以实现污染预防的生态效率。基于26年来的文献综述,该研究概述了主题、背景和未来前景的演变。使用Scopus、Web of Science和Science Direct数据库,绘制了291项研究的样本,并对其进行了完整阅读。内容分析是为了抽象当前生态现代化理论的全貌,并推断该学科的发展趋势。本研究的独创性/价值在于,我们将不同的研究视角整合到EM的综合多维结构中,目的是分析EM的前因、与理论相关的工件、方法、开发的研究类型、与EM理论一起探索的结构和子类别背景、相关利益相关者、技术创新,以及公共政策。作为未来研究的视角,我们建议将EMT与循环经济、工业4.0和基于大数据的管理信息系统相结合。

This study aims to ascertain the relationship between the integrated reporting quality (IRQ) disclosures and the implied cost of equity capital (ICC) in the developed markets of Australia and New Zealand. The study provides empirical results on whether companies producing higher-quality integrated reporting (IR) under a regular process can reduce equity capital costs. This study focuses on the benefits of IR and notes that there is actually more information asymmetry between firms and investors than previously believed. The study concludes that IR plays a salient role in capital costs (when information asymmetry is greater) than cross-sectional tests. The 100 companies studied were chosen based on Standard and Poor market capitalization listed in Australia and New Zealand from 2014 until 2016. The study considered a total of 870 observations of post-implementation IR. Further, data were collected from a validated secondary database. This study showed a significant, negative relationship between IRQ and the ICC in the developed market. The results of this study encourage companies that have not yet adopted IR to do so for accelerating reduction in the ICC. Consequently, this study can help promote IR and attract more countries to implement IR policies to enhance IR research.

Poorly managed e-waste can lead to public health and environmental problems resulting from the leakage of toxic e-waste substances. Building upon the integrated e-waste management (IEWM) concept, this study aims to propose an integrated and sustainable e-waste management strategy. It also suggests alternative processes for the effective collection, treatment, and disposal of e-waste. In its first stage of system dynamics modeling, the study employed an integrated approach comprising interviews and the Causal Loop Diagram (CLD). Based on the stakeholders’ collaboration and resource management, two alternative scenarios have been proposed: 1) integration to community collection; and 2) scavengers as collection agents. Both scenarios have been implemented by means of public–private partnership (PPP) with industries. Interrelating factors such as governance, physical system, and sustainability aspects have also been analyzed. The proposed alternative scenarios can benefit the municipal government in terms of improving the existing e-waste management channels and, therefore, facilitating a better e-waste management system. They can also ensure better collaboration with related stakeholders in recycling, manufacturing, smelter industry processes, etc., together with strengthening the relationship between the community and the informal sector.

The emergence of green banking has greatly increased the fierce competition between Islamic and traditional banks in Pakistan. Therefore, this study explores the current status of green banking in Islamic and traditional banks of Pakistan and the underlying reasons behind that status. A survey with semi-structured interviews was conducted between November 2019 and March 2020 among twenty banks. Overall, the findings reveal that the current level of green banking is low, but that Islamic banks still lead in green initiatives among banks in Pakistan. However, in certain sub-issues of green banking, there exist differences between the two groups of banks in terms of most and least implemented sub-issues. These differences arise from various factors, including the lack of awareness of the need for change, lack of knowledge and skills in green banking, lack of customer and institutional pressure for change, lack of incentives for change, lack of legal power to enforce change, banking culture in general, the culture of resistance to change, and the relative lack of malleability of the existing infrastructure. Further, this study is the first in the literature that describes the level of green banking for Islamic and traditional banks of Pakistan through the green banking index.

The current study identifies the impact of corporate governance mechanisms on environmental disclosure (ED) in Bangladesh. A total of 359 firm-year observations extracted from the annual reports of 86 listed manufacturing companies listed on the Dhaka Stock Exchange for the period from 2015 to 2019 were examined. Multiple linear regression analysis was performed to identify the driving forces of ED practices. This study found that foreign stockholdings, board size, and audit committee size significantly positively correlate with ED. However, surprisingly, more representation of independent directors in the boardroom and institutional ownership in share capital can actually reduce the extent of ED for our sample firms. These results provide a comprehensive understanding of the determinants of ED in an emerging country like Bangladesh and may prove useful for regulators, policymakers, and corporate managers. The data will assist other stakeholders in making relevant decisions. However, by providing the empirical facts of the underlying determinants of ED practices in developing countries’ manufacturing sector settings, the study provides a novel contribution to the current ED literature. To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this is the first study investigating the determinants of ED practices of the manufacturing industry based on the Global Reporting Initiative.

In line with the model proposed within the scope of the research, this study seeks to achieve the following goals: 1) to examine the effect of experience on perceived value, 2) to determine the effect of the sub-dimensions of perceived value on customer satisfaction, and 3) to determine the effect of customer satisfaction on environment friendly behavior. The study was conducted on individuals who participated in the camping activities in the Black Sea region of Turkey. The results show that feel, relate, and act experiences have positive effects on functional value, while sense, feel, and act experiences have positive effects on social value. Additionally, sense, feel, relate, and act experiences show positive effects on emotional value, while sense, feel, and act experiences have positive effects on epistemic and conditional values. On the other hand, the think experience, located in the experience dimensions, does not affect any sub-dimension of perceived value. In conclusion, the sub-dimensions of the perceived value affect customer satisfaction, and customer satisfaction positively affects environmentally friendly behavior.

The U.S. economy is the largest in the world; any change in the US economic policies exert a significant impact on global markets. The main purpose of this study is to investigate the spillover effect of the U.S interest rate on Turkey’s CO2 emission. The empirical results and the subsequent study discussion will be the first contribution of its kind to the environmental literature field. The study employs the newly developed bootstrap autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) testing approach as proposed by McNown et al. (2018). The main findings of this study show that there is a negative and significant relationship between the U.S interest rate and Turkey’s CO2 emission. The results also provide significant evidence of the spillover effects of the U.S interest rate on CO2 emission in Turkey through the domestic interest rate, economic growth, and energy consumption channels. It is suggested that policymakers should design strategies such as sustained economic growth for responding to any external shocks, in particular, the U.S interest rate.

This study aims to analyze the developing trend of anti-bribery disclosure among mining companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. The sample data of research is an 81 -observation firm-year period during 2017–2019. The results of the study revealed that there is increasing information about anti-bribery disclosure from year to year. The most frequently disclosed information relates to corporate whistle-blowing system policies. The results indicated that the size of the board of directors, whether the entity is a state-owned company, and the type of auditor employed by the firm are positively significant influences on a corporation’s anti-bribery disclosure. Meanwhile, profitability has a negatively significant influence on anti-bribery disclosure, and there appears to be no effect at all from either firm size or firm leverage on a company’s anti-bribery disclosure. The authors recommended that regulators consider more anti-bribery activity and require disclosure of a company’s policies as evidence of its commitment to stakeholders and to demonstrate transparency, policies, and efforts to eradicate corruption and comply with ethical standards. This proposal can be supported by governmental regulations and ISO 37001 standards to permit companies to relatively easily implement an anti-bribery management system that would be highly useful to counter the risks of corruption cases.

This study aims to measure the short-run dynamics of electricity production sources and GDP on CO2 emission in Bangladesh. As a developing nation, Bangladesh needs to generate more electricity to cater to the demands of households and firms. However, environmental degradation due to energy utilization, industrialization, and economic expansion has negative consequences. The current study applies the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) approach by considering the time series data from 1972 to 2018. The findings showed that the short-run association with ECT is 25%; and 1 % increase in electricity production raises the CO2 emission by 0.63%. The GDP has no significant impact on CO2 emission in the short run. The current study recommends that modern technologies like small power producers (SPP), solar panels, recommends that other renewable technologies can be used as alternatives to electricity production. Through small power producers, the country can meet the electricity demand for households and small firms. This study will create awareness on the need for sustainable electricity production by considering lesser environmental damages.
