“…Another interesting distinction is that 20% of European companies say that none of the suggested measures will help them to improve resource efficiency, whereas no Russian company chose this answer. Thus, the results of our survey confirm that Russian companies have barriers to the development of the circular economy 2.0, which were previously revealed in Schoggl et al [43]. These include a lack of government enforcement and cooperation, a lack of proven technolo-gies, a lack of awareness, and the high cost of resource efficiency innovations.…”

Further impediments include the lack of definitions and standards, missing enforcement by authorities, and unharmonized legislation [73]. A multi-stakeholder Workshop on International Trade and Circular Economy hosted by the OECD in early 2020 [74] similarly concluded that the main barriers to circular economy working at scale relate to the lack of transparency and data sharing, and standardization of data and processes, which are required to make informed decisions on product design, production, reuse, and recycling.…”

“…Während insgesamt konzeptionelle Studien die wissenschaftliche Diskussion zur Kreislaufwirtschaft dominieren (Govindan und Hasanagic 2018), sind nun zunehmend auch empirische Studien, die sich auf die Umsetzung im Unternehmenskontext fokussieren (Stumpf et al 2021) (Heshmati 2015).
