This volume addresses the crux of that challenge by presenting a broad array of options for understanding and managing the complexity of sustainability initiatives that affect, and are also influenced by value chains. Its chapters present diverse perspectives on both political and private sector governance, including governmental regulations and private standards, and embrace the emergent and critical value of innovative approaches to monitoring and evaluating progress. Finally, the volume offers a review of concrete examples for transformation and transition towards more sustainable value chains in selected sectors, including, amongst others, agriculture, forestry, mining, and tourism. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references. 650 0 $a International trade $x Environmental aspects. 650 0 $a Business logistics $x Environmental aspects. 650 0 $a Sustainable development. 650 7 $a International trade $x Environmental aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00977137 650 7 $a Sustainable development. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01139731 700 1 $a Schmidt, Michael, $d 1957 February 26- $e editor. 700 1 $a Giovannucci, Daniele, $e editor. 700 1 $a Palekhov, Dmitry, $e editor. 700 1 $a Hansmann, Berthold, $e editor. 830 0 $a Natural resource management in transition, $x 2198-9702 ; $v 2 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20210721013522.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=911461D2403511EB87AA299C42ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
