“…In the case of Central European countries, institutional transition can be identified in the phenomenon of transition [70,71], that resulted in developing a gap between institutional frameworks and individual level practices. However, this transformation is difficult to capture [100]. Previous research has confirmed insight into the differences in institutional development between countries even within the Central and Eastern European region [101], and has highlighted the variation firm level factors may cause in individual perceptions [19,97,102].…”

Exploring Ethical Business in Central Europe: Leaders’ Values and Perspectives on Good Practices

et al. 2020

Weaknesses in the institutional environment of Central Europe challenge the sustainability of economic development. Institutional theory stipulates that institutions drive economic development, and institutions are configured by individual values and practices. The World Governance Indicators, the Corruption Perception Index, and the Doing Business Indicators indicate weaknesses in the institutional environments of the Visegrád countries. This paper explores the micro level perspective of institutions, focusing on values and practices, in terms of leadership and ethics. A survey of 868 private and public sector managers from Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, and Slovakia provides evidence that leadership practices and ethical values are congruent, suggesting a positive influence on the institutional environment. The results also provide evidence for the presence of the gap, spanning between the micro and the macro level factors affecting sustainable economic development. These results imply that a bottom-up view of sustainable economic development is more suitable to the Central European context, and promotion of sustainable economic development needs to focus on the micro level factors.

“…However, a research gap still exists in sustainability deduction between industrial need and academic education [7,23]; thus, narrowing this gap to help business school students possess the sustainability knowledge and skills required for the ever-changing world is imperative. The diverse approaches to the study of sustainability-related issues have been affected by goals and situations [24,25]. The majority of the studies which have attempted to investigate sustainability education from different aspects or scopes have employed a questionnaire approach [7,8,11,[24][25][26][27].…”

The majority of the studies which have attempted to investigate sustainability education from different aspects or scopes have employed a questionnaire approach [7,8,11,[24][25][26][27]. However, despite the efficiency of questionnaires in obtaining first-hand information, this approach could be influenced by participants' personal preferences and stereotypes [10].…”

In the past, research addressing the issues reflecting industrial needs for sustainabilityrelated curriculum design in higher education has been limited. To narrow this gap and to provide students with better business sustainability curricula, we propose employing a mapping concept to extract the opinions and needs of industrial professionals. A total of 14 industrial professionals were invited to brainstorm on topics of business sustainability to be included in the curriculum, and we were able to obtain 52 topics. The participants were then asked to group the topics on the basis of their own perception of similarity, and rated their importance and difficulty levels. To associate the topics into clusters, we conducted multidimensional scaling and hierarchical cluster analysis. We achieved five clusters: resource usage reduction and management, corporate governance and labor safety, business sustainability practices, employee rights and community involvement, and knowledge of the regulations. A derived importance-performance analysis (dIPA) was later implemented to further categorize the topics on the basis of the distinct levels of importance and difficulty of each topic. The four quadrants in dIPA could act as guidelines for designing a series of progressive courses on business sustainability in higher education.

“…Corruption offers a system of competing ethical norms among various actors within a given economy (Goel and Nelson 2010). Corruption is widely recognized as an important contributor to a country's environment (Khera 2001;Enderle 1997). There are those that argue culture, not regulation, is the driver of corruption (Jing and graham 2008).…”

Emerging Technologies and Ethics: A Race-to-the-Bottom or the Top?

et al. 2012

Does national success with an emerging technology require ethical sacrifices? This question is considered through the simultaneous consideration of ethics, investment, and outcomes in the nine jurisdictions that are making the largest investments in nanotechnologies-an important emerging technology. It is found that while ethical environment has no notable effect on pure and applied research, a more positive ethical environment is associated with measures associated with invention and commercialization. In summary, a race-to-the-top supports invention and commercialization of emerging technologies. A critical finding as it suggests that issues such as corruption and regulation could be critical in limiting the extraction of social and economic benefit from emerging technologies (like nanotechnologies).
