APOLOGIES FOR CROSS-POSTINGS
Dear colleagues,
We are preparing a California Management Review Special Issue entitled:
FIRMS, REGULATORY UNCERTAINTY, AND THE NATURAL ENVIRONMENT: WHAT CAN WE
EXPECT? WHAT SHOULD MANAGERS DO?.
** Background: Managers respond in many different ways to regulation. How
business leaders manage their regulatory relationships is an important topic
that deserves new consideration given the changing shape of global
regulation. In a period of less than a decade, the regulatory debate on
climate change and environmental management has gained dramatically in
importance.
However firms are facing a high level of uncertainty about multiple issues
related to regulation on environmental topics, such as the real effects of
the Kyoto Protocol and the possibility of new international treaties,
environmental regulation and conformity with international treaties in
emergent countries (specially China, India, and Brazil), the future
existence of environmental champions in domestic regulation, and the
unexpected responses of governments as a result of environmental risks and
accidents.
** We would like to do a compilation of appealing papers for scholars and
managers.
** Please find attached a detailed call for papers.
Deadline for submission of abstracts: December 1st, 2010.
Do not hesitate to contact us for any doubts or suggestions.
Best wishes,
Alfred Marcus (U. of Minnesota, USA)
