Sustainable Development Through Global Circular Economy Practices
About this ebook
Offering a detailed overview of what is required to move towards a circular economy by providing a series of cases alongside each chapter that illustrate practice in relation to theory, Maguire and Robson deliver a lens through which academics and students can explore what is emerging as state of the art. The chapters contain a critical and balanced treatment of theory and practice on the subjects of sustainable development and the circular economy, setting out and evaluating the theoretical landscape alongside a grand narrative drawn from systems thinking and the environmental, social, and governance paradigms.
For students, academics and practitioners, Sustainable Development Through Global Circular Economy Practices is a go-to book with original insights from a theoretical perspective about how the global economy integrates, and how this integration can be leveraged to move practice toward sustainable practice.
