The role of governance as a fundamental pillar of sustainability is widely recognized and confirmed by its inclusion in the main ESG issues (environmental social governance). Through the complex role of governance in the context of ESG, research has developed the notion of sustainable corporate governance, i.e., a system based on the integration of shareholder and stakeholder objectives that protects the environment and the broader community.
This book provides a sound theoretical definition, a precise measurement system, and best practice examples for the implementation of sustainable corporate governance. It includes theoretical foundations based on stakeholder and institutional theories from different environments and contexts, such as developed and developing economies, large publicly traded companies and SMEs, and family businesses. In addition to explaining the concept theoretically, it uses practical case studies to address the effective integration of sustainable governance into corporate structures.
The book provides business students and researchers with an in-depth analysis of the emerging concept of sustainable governance and is valuable for academics as well as corporate and financial market participants.
