Responsible Business in a Changing World
This book explores the current state of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) from an international perspective, the goal being to share ideas and visions for a sustainable future and to provide useful guidelines for academics, practitioners and policymakers in the context of the 2030 “Agenda for Sustainable Development” released by the United Nations. Research on CSR has evolved considerably over the last three decades. However, there are still many unanswered questions concerning the sustainability of business in an increasingly changing world, for example: If most companies consider CSR to be valuable to their organizations, why do only 15% of them systematically implement Social Responsibility initiatives? If CSR has been found to be profitable for companies, why are they so reluctant to develop an active, internal CSR policy? Why are there such significant differences in CSR adoption from country to country? Why does it take a huge crisis to make politicians react and regulate certain core CSR issues? This contributed volume answers these questions, presenting a wealth of case studies and new approaches in the process.
Responsabilidad social universitaria
Tal vez estamos en un momento único. El pasado ya no es lo que decían que era y el futuro todavía sólo constituye una esperanza de nuevos caminos de libertad y justicia. Sin duda, la ocasión apropiada para que las universidades redescubran el núcleo de su misión y de su mejor aportación a la sociedad: pensar y repensar de forma autónoma y crítica. En tal contexto, la presente obra presenta un conjunto de reflexiones y de experiencias en torno a la responsabilidad social universitaria, entendida en una múltiple dimensión: un gobierno plural y participativo en la adopción de decisiones; una administración socialmente efectiva y eficiente de los recursos disponibles; unas enseñan...

Designing a Sustainable Financial System
This edited collection brings together leading theoretical and applied research with the intent to design a sustainable global financial future. The contributors argue that our world cannot move toward sustainability, address climate change, reverse environmental degradation, and improve human well-being without aligning the financial system with sustainable development goals like those outlined by the United Nations. Such a system would: a) be environmentally and socially responsible; b) align with planetary boundaries; c) manage natural resources sustainably; d) avoid doing more harm than good; and e) be resilient and adaptable to changing conditions. The overarching theme in this collection of chapters is a response to the worldwide, supranational sustainable finance discussions about how we can transition to a new socio-ecological system where finance, human well-being, and planetary health are recognized as being highly intertwined.
Un enfoque múltiple de la economía española: principios y valores
A lo largo de 2007 se han venido publicando en La Gaceta de los Negocios columnas de opinión realizadas por prestigiosos expertos y que se han recopilado en torno a esta obra, son temas de actualidad en la cual se comenta la misma y se proyecta al futuro. Ya con el año vencido observaremos que gran parte de lo que en las columnas se apuntaba ha sucedido a corto plazo, y a largo parece que las tendencias que allí se anunciaban se van a cumplir, y es que están realizados estos apuntes de opinión breves desde el estudio y la reflexión serena de la realidad y desde fuera de la misma, es decir, los actuantes son normalmente docentes más que empresarios. En este recopilatorio de temas se ha...

In this volume, authors present empirical research on liquidity risk discussed in the context of Basel III and its implications.
