Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Thus, the corporate accountability movement has proposed a variety of regulatory movements that include obligations as opposed to responsibility. This volume provides insights into these dimensions of the interface between corporate players and questions of sustainability.
MoreLong description:
The social and environmental performances of big enterprises are increasingly coming under regulatory regimes that aim to reassert social control over them to improve their social obligations. In practice, corporate social responsibility (CSR) has its limitations for long term sustainability. Thus, the corporate accountability movement has proposed a variety of regulatory movements that include obligations as opposed to responsibility. This volume provides insights
into these dimensions of the interface between corporate players and questions of sustainability.
The volume will be useful to teachers and graduate and post-graduate students of environmental sciences and management, environment activists, NGOs, multilateral organizations, funding organizations, policymakers, and trans-nationals especially of the developing world, as well as general readers.
This book ventures into an area not common for ecological economics readers: business economics and management...Nine chapters from diverse authors contain these proposals through theoretical, regulatory, and case study-based environmental policy analysis, covering a wide range of activities such as genetically modified organism releases, mining, financial services, retail sales, steel and paper industries, and oil spills. Utting and Clapp have put together a timely
and important piece that favors ecological economics by giving it applicability and practicality, a step in the right direction for a transdiscipline that has worked hard in developing a vast theoretical framework.
