The building of Kalabagh Dam—Pakistan’s largest hydropower development project—has been stalled for decades. This article interrogates why and how this project has been grounded for so long. It shows that the state and its administrative agencies that support dam building rest their case on “expert” knowledge, while dismissing the counterknowledge produced by the anti-dam coalition of environmentalists, nationalists, and spiritualists as “inexpert.” Consequently, the dam has become a proxy for contending knowledge claims between the dam’s supporters and anti-dam activists. Deploying Habermas’s communicative action theory that critiques expert knowledge as “instrumental rationality,” this article demonstrates that the Pakistani anti-dam movement’s communicative action played the pivotal role in stalling the dam’s building. It typologizes actors, defending and opposing the dam, and documents their knowledge claims. The article contributes to the environmental movement literature by illuminating the ways in which anti-dam activists structure communicative claims, and deploy them for the public contestation of instrumental knowledge and interests.
巴基斯坦最大的水电开发项目卡拉巴格大坝的建设已经停滞了几十年。这篇文章询问了这个项目为什么以及如何被搁置了这么长时间。这表明,支持大坝建设的国家及其行政机构将其观点建立在“专家”知识之上,而将环保主义者、民族主义者和精神主义者组成的反大坝联盟提出的反知识斥为“不专业”。因此,大坝已成为大坝支持者和反大坝活动家之间争论知识主张的代理人。本文运用哈贝马斯的交往行为理论,将专家知识批判为“工具理性”,论证了巴基斯坦反大坝运动的交往行为在阻碍大坝建设中发挥了关键作用。它对为大坝辩护和反对的参与者进行了类型化,并记录了他们的知识主张。本文通过阐明反大坝活动家构建交流主张的方式,并将其用于工具性知识和利益的公开争论,为环境运动文学做出了贡献。

The literature discussing social learning for Anticipatory Adaptation to Climate Change (AACC) has largely been developed at the societal level of analysis. However, how private companies build resilience and reduce damage to their private goods remains underexplored. Since climate change involves high levels of uncertainty and complexity, companies seeking to proactively adapt to climate change are required to search for specific and nontraditional knowledge. In order to contribute to this discussion, we investigated how a community of practice promotes social learning for AACC. We access the social learning emerging from the community of practice by developing a framework that can also be applied to other complex problems faced by companies. We found evidence of the centrality of social learning for the development of strategies and practices addressing grand corporate challenges, such as AACC. The results contribute to both the literature of social learning and the practice of sustainability management.
关于预期适应气候变化的社会学习的研究主要集中在社会层面的分析。然而,私营企业如何建立弹性并减少对其私人产品的损害仍未得到充分探讨。由于气候变化涉及高度的不确定性和复杂性,寻求主动适应气候变化的公司需要寻找特定的和非传统的知识。为了促进这一讨论,我们调查了实践社区如何促进AACC的社会学习。我们通过开发一个也可以应用于公司面临的其他复杂问题的框架,从实践社区中获得社会学习。我们发现了社会学习在解决重大企业挑战(如AACC)的战略和实践发展中的核心作用。研究结果对社会学习的文献和可持续管理的实践都有贡献。

Trading Your Diversification Strategy for a Green One: How Do Firms in Emerging Economies Get on the Green Train? 从多元化战略转向绿色战略:新兴经济体的企业如何登上绿色列车?

Many studies have been performed to explore how firms transform from a nongreen strategy to a green one, but there is no definitive answer. Aiming to untangle this complex process in the context of the strategy and belief that being green is an important endeavor, this study details how firms implement green strategy from product diversification to innovation under the pressure of environmental regulations. Consistent with our arguments, data from Chinese listed firms reveal that environmental regulations create pressure for resources and managerial skills to be split between diversification and innovation strategies, which leads to innovation at the cost of diversification. This tension is strengthened when the firm has insufficient slack resources and faces strong environmental dynamism. Furthermore, we find that the innovation strategy increasingly substitutes the loss of the downsized diversification strategy. In addition, these effects show the differences between sectors and the dynamic change over time.
许多研究都在探索企业如何从非绿色战略转变为绿色战略,但没有明确的答案。为了理清这一复杂过程的战略背景和信念,绿色是一项重要的努力,本研究详细介绍了企业如何在环境法规的压力下实施从产品多样化到创新的绿色战略。与我们的观点一致的是,来自中国上市公司的数据表明,环境法规对资源和管理技能在多元化和创新战略之间的分离造成了压力,这导致了以多元化为代价的创新。当企业闲置资源不足,面临较强的环境动态性时,这种张力会增强。此外,我们还发现,创新战略越来越多地替代了多元化战略小型化的损失。此外,这些影响显示了部门之间的差异和随时间的动态变化。

We have little empirical evidence about the environmentally friendly, intention of owner-managers of small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in emerging country context despite recent developments of proenvironmental, practices. The main objective of our study is to address this gap by exploring the antecedents of environmentally friendly intentions among SME owner managers in, emerging market context. To achieve this objective, we test our, hypotheses in the textile–clothing industry in Tunisia. The textile–clothing industry represents high ecological risk due to the waste discharged into the environment. Our empirical observations confirm that the reasoned action approach is particularly robust to predict environmentally friendly intentions of SME owner-managers in an emerging market context.
尽管最近发展了有利于环境的做法,但我们几乎没有关于新兴国家中小企业所有者-管理者的环保意图的经验证据。我们研究的主要目的是通过探索新兴市场背景下中小企业所有者和管理者环保意愿的前因来解决这一差距。为了实现这一目标,我们在突尼斯纺织服装行业测试了我们的假设。纺织服装行业由于废物排放到环境中,具有很高的生态风险。我们的实证观察证实,在新兴市场背景下,理性行动方法在预测中小企业所有者和管理者的环保意图方面尤其稳健。

The institutional perspective is becoming an increasingly important approach for explaining sustainability behavior in an international context. Drawing on insights from institutional theory and natural environment literature, we propose that the utilization of international firms’ technological intensity to generate green innovations is conditioned by their home-country institutional profile. This article analyzes a panel of 5,024 environmental patents belonging to 80 international firms during the period 2005 to 2009. The results show that firms from countries with environmental institutional weakness reinforce their utilization of technological capabilities to generate environmental innovations in international contexts. Our results support the previous literature regarding the influence of technological intensity on the development of innovations, and we add new evidence that considers the moderating impact of the home-country institutional profile.
在国际范围内,制度观点正成为解释可持续性行为的一种日益重要的方法。根据制度理论和自然环境文献的见解,我们提出国际公司对技术强度的利用产生绿色创新受到其母国制度概况的制约。本文对80家跨国公司2005年至2009年间的5024项环境专利进行了分析。结果表明,来自环境制度薄弱国家的企业在国际背景下加强了对技术能力的利用,以产生环境创新。我们的研究结果支持了先前关于技术强度对创新发展的影响的文献,并且我们增加了新的证据,考虑了母国制度背景的调节作用。

The Role of Universities in Private Environmental Governance Experimentalism 大学在私人环境治理中的作用——实验主义

In our federal, constitutional system of government, the states are often lauded as “laboratories of experimentation” for public policy, including for public environmental law. Yet private actors are playing an increasingly important role as parallel regulators through the adoption of private environmental governance. Private environmental governance can functionally advance one of federalism’s core values: policy experimentalism. To the extent that private governance by business firms arouses skepticism for this experimental role because firms’ motives to achieve profit in a competitive environment differ from the incentives motivating public regulators, private universities offer an alternative institutional locus for experimentalism. Using Yale University’s recent adoption of a private carbon charge as a case study, this article argues that universities should play a greater role in private environmental governance experimentalism, and are worthy of more scholarly focus.
在我们的联邦宪政政府体系中,各州经常被誉为公共政策(包括公共环境法)的“实验实验室”。然而,通过采用私人环境治理,私人行为者作为平行监管机构正在发挥越来越重要的作用。私人环境治理可以在功能上推进联邦制的核心价值之一:政策实验主义。由于企业在竞争环境中实现利润的动机不同于激励公共监管机构的动机,因此商业公司的私人治理引起了对这种实验作用的怀疑,私立大学为实验主义提供了另一种制度场所。本文以耶鲁大学最近采用的私人碳收费为例,认为大学应该在私人环境治理实验主义中发挥更大的作用,值得更多的学术关注。

This article aims to explore how an individual actor, embodying the role of the institutional entrepreneur, legitimizes new corporate reporting practices. This study is based on a longitudinal and explanatory case study of an Italian listed public utility, operating in the electricity sector, which has recently implemented Integrated Reporting. Findings were analysed through the lens of institutional entrepreneurship, revealing that Integrated Reporting can be implemented through the legitimizing activities carried out by the corporate social responsibility manager. This organizational professional, with strong competences and intrinsic engagement, efficiently uses available resources and gains support from various organizational groups through intense networking. A substantial change in corporate reporting practices can influence the position of the institutional entrepreneur who originally triggered the change process. The institutional entrepreneur first moves from the periphery to the centre of the organization and then shares such central role with other organizational professionals once the change has been implemented.
本文旨在探讨个体行动者如何体现机构企业家的角色,使新的公司报告实践合法化。本研究基于对意大利一家上市公用事业公司的纵向和解释性案例研究,该公司在电力部门运营,最近实施了综合报告。通过机构企业家精神的视角对研究结果进行分析,发现综合报告可以通过企业社会责任管理者开展的合法化活动来实施。该组织专业人员具有强大的能力和内在的敬业精神,能够有效地利用现有资源,并通过紧密的网络获得各种组织团体的支持。公司报告实践的重大变化可以影响最初引发变革过程的机构企业家的立场。机构企业家首先从组织的外围转移到中心,然后在变革实施后与其他组织专业人员分享这种中心角色。

Strategizing Nature in Cross-Sector Partnerships: Can Plantation Revitalization Enable Living Wages? 跨部门伙伴关系中的自然战略:种植园振兴能否提高生活工资?

Strengthening sustainability in global supply chains requires producers, buyers, and nonprofit organizations to collaborate in transformative cross-sector partnerships (CSPs). However, the role played by nature in such partnerships has been left largely unattended in literature on CSPs. This article shows how strategizing nature helps CSPs reach their transformative potential. Strategizing nature entails the progressive revealing and reconciling of temporal tensions between “plants, profits, and people.” We show how a CSP took a parallel approach—recognizing the divergent temporalities of plants, people, and profits as interlaced and mutually determined—toward realizing their objective of implementing living wages in a sub-Saharan African country’s the tea industry, simultaneously driven by the revitalization of tea plantations. The promise of better quality tea leaves allowed partners to take a “leap of faith” and to tackle pressing issues before the market would follow. Our findings thus show the potential of CSPs in driving regenerative organizing.
加强全球供应链的可持续性需要生产商、买家和非营利组织在变革性跨部门伙伴关系(CSP)中进行合作。然而,在关于CSP的文献中,大自然在这种伙伴关系中所扮演的角色在很大程度上被忽视了。这篇文章展示了制定自然战略如何帮助CSP发挥其变革潜力。策略化自然需要逐步揭示和调和“植物、利润和人”之间的时间紧张关系。我们展示了CSP如何采取平行的方法——认识到植物、人、,利润交织在一起,相互决定——以实现他们在撒哈拉以南非洲国家的茶叶行业实现生活工资的目标,同时振兴茶园。优质茶叶的承诺让合作伙伴能够“信心倍增”,在市场跟进之前解决紧迫问题。因此,我们的研究结果显示了CSP在推动再生组织方面的潜力。

Invisible Hand or Ecological Footprint? Comparing Social Versus Environmental Impacts of Recent Economic Growth 看不见的手还是生态足迹?比较近期经济增长对社会和环境的影响

This study examines changes in some key indicators among 66 countries on six continents over a 56-year period, to compare the power of economic growth to improve human health and income distribution with its tendency to degrade the natural environment. The results indicate that growth depletes and pollutes nature far more than it benefits society. This suggests that public policy should shift toward enhancement of individual and social well-being in ways more direct and effective, and less ecologically damaging, than reliance on overall growth in gross domestic product. I illustrate this implication with a degrowth scenario for the United States to 2050 that draws on the empirical results for the period 1961 to 2016.

本研究考察了六大洲66个国家在56年期间一些关键指标的变化,以比较经济增长改善人类健康和收入分配的力量与其破坏自然环境的趋势。结果表明,增长对自然的消耗和污染远远超过对社会的益处。这表明,公共政策应转向以更直接、更有效、对生态破坏更小的方式提高个人和社会福祉,而不是依赖国内生产总值的总体增长。我用美国到2050年的去增长情景来说明这一含义,该情景借鉴了1961年至2016年的实证结果。我考虑在组织的管理和治理方面进行某些改革,以实现这种情况。

Individual entrepreneurs committed to sustainability experience paradoxes: interdependencies and conflict between social, environmental, and economic goals. Whereas prior research focuses on direct responses to paradoxes, we examine multi-level dynamics between organizations and individuals in responding to sustainability paradoxes. Using a 20-month qualitative field study of sustainable food entrepreneurs in Detroit, we investigated how a business collective organization, FoodLab, enabled entrepreneurs to move from paradoxical thinking to practicing sustainable business. Our findings suggest that while individuals may struggle to address multiple goals of sustainability alone, business collective organizations provide a coordinating mechanism that amplifies their efforts. Through guardrails that facilitate the co-creation of shared resources for members, organizations can minimize cognitive and practical barriers of sustainable entrepreneurship.
致力于可持续发展的个体企业家经历了悖论:社会、环境和经济目标之间的相互依赖和冲突。鉴于先前的研究侧重于对悖论的直接反应,我们研究了组织和个人在应对可持续性悖论时的多层次动态。通过对底特律可持续食品企业家进行为期20个月的定性实地研究,我们调查了一个商业集体组织FoodLab如何使企业家从矛盾的思维转向实践可持续的商业。我们的研究结果表明,虽然个人可能难以单独实现可持续发展的多个目标,但企业集体组织提供了一种协调机制,可以放大他们的努力。通过促进成员共同创造共享资源的护栏,组织可以最大限度地减少可持续创业的认知和实践障碍。
