International Trends and Economic Sustainability on Emerging Markets

Dear Colleagues,

There has been an ongoing debate over the financial viability of economic sustainability. Critics argue that pursuing environmental goals hurts profitability and growth and is an added cost of doing business—responsible financial management and sustainability, they claim, are incompatible. Supporters argue sustainability and economic growth are compatible and potentially symbiotic. There is a growing sentiment that sustainably also promotes innovation in product and process design.

Therefore, economic sustainability is currently one of the main drivers of the economy, the financial growth of societies, and technological advancement, and their “ups and downs” influence business cycles. In this context, it is important to assess the impact of financial management of eneterprises on international trends and economic sustainability on emerging markets.

This Special Issue will publish papers in various areas related to international trends and economic sustainability on emerging markets. The issue is particularly interested in (1) economic sustainability in emerging markets; (2) regions and economic resilience; and (3) corporate social responsibility and sustainable strategies.

We invite investigators to contribute original research articles in theory, practice, and applications on international trends and economic sustainability on emerging markets. All submissions must contain original unpublished work not being considered for publication elsewhere.
