| Summary: | "Today sustainability thinking encompasses a wide range of national and international ecological concerns, socio-economic issues and topics on democratic institutional development. The involved policy processes demand the engagement of an equally diverse group of actors. This book analyses a new stage emerging in the development of sustainability policies from the Netherlands and shows how this phase poses new strategic questions to business and governments." "The author highlights the increasing complexity of the changing process towards sustainable development and illustrates the importance of collaboration between businesses, governments and non-governmental organisations in the design and implementation of shared strategies for sustainable development." "This book shows sustainable business to be an inspiring, innovative and rewarding aspect of entrepreneurship and will be essential reading for students and researchers of sustainable development, environmental management and the evolution of environmental policy."--BOOK JACKET. |
