“…A market logic manifests itself in profit maximization, efficiency and self-centeredness while a community logic displays social obligation and identification (Minbaeva et al, 2020). Third, a political logic is also at play in this industry as evidenced by literature on the resource curse theory (Funk et al, 2020). Fourth is a civil society logic in which civil society organizations provide training and financial aid to ASM in a bid to create model sustainable ASM operations (Laurence, 2011).…”

“…The political logic originates from the state with the objectives of legal compliance and state profiteering (Funk et al, 2020). An example of this logic is detailed in Mawowa's (2013) paper on the political economy of the small-scale gold mining, which reveals consequences of the politics of extraction and trade control by the state on a mining site called Totororo in Central Zimbabwe.…”

The mining industry has abundant leverage points as well as the potential to contribute to all the 17 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). To date, significant efforts have been made to mitigate the negative impacts of mining and enhance its positive contributions, especially by large scale mining (LSM) houses. Nonetheless, a lot remains to be done in mining areas where people at the base of the pyramid operate. These areas are exploited by Artisanal and Small-Scale Mining (ASM) actors who constitute 80% of the global mining workforce. The ASM industry is responsible for widespread negative environmental, social, and economic impacts. A lot of research has been done in ASM, but sustainable development remains far from being realized. In this study, we apply the institutional complexity lens to investigate forces impeding sustainability in this sector. Furthermore, we avoid applying any existing method of analysis and rather try synthesis as a methodological path in search for the missing knowledge. The results include identification of leverage points for sustainable development in fields where no large-scale mining houses exist; development of suitable business models; and a methodological contribution of holism to cases of institutional complexity.

“…Both Funk et al, (2021) and Chan & Pattnaik (2021) explore the co-evolution of home country institutions and EMNE internationalization, with the former focusing on the resource curse and the latter on institutional support. For example, by applying the process-oriented approach to institutionalization, Funk et al (2021) present a conceptual model to explain how resource curse characteristics change co-evolutionary relationships between regulative, normative and cognitive institutional processes, and EMNE internationalization, in a cyclical manner. Chan & Pattnaik (2021)'s work is more empirically oriented.…”
