GT01_00 Business for Society General Track

The Business for Society General Track addresses how organizations interact with their social, political and natural environment. Consistently with the interdisciplinary nature of this field, the general track aims at cross-fertilisations with colleagues from economics, political sciences, sociology, humanities, who investigate the conditions under which organizations may contribute to sustainable development. Coherently with EURAM 2022 theme: “Leading the Digital Transformation”, the track welcomes work that explores how demographic, political and technological digitalization challenge management scholars. The general track particularly welcomes contributions not explicitly covered by other B4S tracks.

UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDG):
Goal 8: Decent work and economic growth, Goal 10: Reducing inequalities, Goal 13: Climate action

BUSINESS FOR SOCIETY SIG STANDING TRACKS

ST01_01/ST02_01 – Rethinking the Responsible Corporation: Bridging Management, Law & Governance

(co-sponsored by Business for Society SIG-01 and Corporate Governance SIG-02)

With this track, we aim to develop new perspectives on the responsible corporation. We focus both on corporate governance and on institutional or legal frameworks that enable corporations to better manage sustainability-related matters and responsible innovation. We encourage contributions that further our understanding of responsible corporations from various angles: theoretical or comparative approaches to corporate governance; hybrid organizations or alternative forms of business organizations; historical as well as recent cases like Danone and Unilever; and recent institutional developments in sustainable finance or in corporate law, such as purpose-driven corporations.

UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDG):

Goal 4: Quality education, Goal 8: Decent work and economic growth, Goal 9: Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure, Goal 10: Reducing inequalities, Goal 12: Responsible consumption and production

ST01_02 -Measuring, managing and communicating on performance for sustainability: new trends and innovative tools

Measuring, managing and communicating performance for sustainability play a central role in the implementation of the sustainability strategy, and developing relationships with stakeholders. It comprises practices and mechanisms to measure, represent, report and communicate firm’s performance, embracing environmental, social and economic aspects. We aim to attract papers which critically review and advance theory, methodology and practice on: sustainability and environmental reporting, social balance sheet, Integrated reporting, non financial disclosure, management control and performance measurement systems for sustainability, quality and assurance of sustainability disclosure and IR, the effects on the organization and its stakeholders, the role of CFO and the controller.

UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDG):

Goal 3: Good health and well-being for people, Goal 5: Gender equality, Goal 6: Clean water and sanitation, Goal 7: Affordable and clean energy, Goal 8: Decent work and economic growth, Goal 9: Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure, Goal 10: Reducing inequalities, Goal 12: Responsible consumption and production, Goal 13: Climate action, Goal 17: Partnerships for the goals

ST01_03 – Finance and Economy for Society: Inclusion, Empowerment and Sustainability

The growing financialization of the world economy and dysfunction of the global financial system which culminated in the 2008 global economic meltdown calls for an in-depth analysis of the financial and banking mechanisms and regulations. Financialization and commodification have, in turn, been at the origin of social tumults and economic upheavals. There is an urgent need to de-financialize and de-carbonize the economy. The track invites theoretical, conceptual and empirical contributions that propose a critical analysis of mainstream theories and practices and propose alternative models to create a sustainable, inclusive and empowered society by engaging in democratic and polycentric governance.

UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDG):

Goal 1: No poverty, Goal 2: Zero hunger, Goal 3: Good health and well-being for people, Goal 4: Quality education, Goal 5: Gender equality, Goal 7: Affordable and clean energy, Goal 8: Decent work and economic growth, Goal 10: Reducing inequalities, Goal 12: Responsible consumption and production, Goal 13: Climate action, Goal 16: Peace, justice and strong institutions, Goal 17: Partnerships for the goals

BUSINESS FOR SOCIETY SIG TRACKS

T01_04 – Arts for Business and society

We welcome contributions that put arts at the core of ‘business for society’ research, looking “Now“ at the past to pursue the future. Arts and management have been studied as separated concepts either looking at how applying Business to the artistic field or finding how the artists’ activities could be managed. We look at art as a source of knowledge, by which management should learn. Accordingly, we refer to the etymological meaning of art, which derives from the latin word Ar-tem (the practice of giving value to the human action) and formerly from the Aryan root Ar (moving onwards).

UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDG):

Goal 4: Quality education, Goal 8: Decent work and economic growth, Goal 10: Reducing inequalities
