This book considers the nature, causes, and consequences of extreme pro- and anti-sustainability rhetoric, exploring how and why the expressions of radical views on sustainability-related themes may prevent real sustainable development.

Following a thorough introduction on sustainability rhetoric, on dialogue, and on the role played by ideologies in the building of environmental beliefs, Fracarolli Nunes and Lee Park examine positions and statements expressed or made by individuals, companies, governments, and NGOs in the last decades. The outcomes of these considerations lead to the classification of expressions in different categories of sustainability rhetoric, laying the groundwork for the development of a ‘sustainability spectrum’: a metric for the level of radicalization of sustainability positions, which ranges from apocalyptic views to ultimate denial. Through the combination of historical perspectives, theoretical frameworks, and conceptual developments, this book provides a foundation for a more informed and productive dialogue between radically opposing views on sustainability issues.

This volume will be of great interest to students, scholars, and practitioners researching and working in the areas of environmental communication and media, environmental politics, and sustainable development.

The Business of Vegan Luxury is the first in-depth, holistic examination of the vegan movement within the luxury industry. Combining historical, theoretical, and managerial perspectives, the authors challenge preconceived ideas and misconceptions to promote a new dialogue around the potential and development of veganism and luxury.

This book explores both veganism and luxury as individual essential pillars before uniting them to clarify that vegan luxury is a topic that lies at the intersection of two complex debates in their own right, which, for a long time, remained distant and ran in parallel. The meeting of these two universes represents an opportunity to explore an evolving social phenomenon that brings together issues of both a moral and economic nature. This book provides a comprehensive analysis of the subject, covering topics such as the market for vegan luxury, sustainability, innovation, and the future trajectory of the industry.

This unique book will appeal to a wide range of readers, from academics and students in luxury and fashion management, marketing, consumer behaviour, and business ethics, to professionals in the luxury industry.

As environmental legislation grows more stringent in response to the escalating climate crisis, some of the world’s largest corporations have adopted fraudulent mechanisms to keep their margins of profit, and achieve improper competitive advantage. Such mechanisms can lead to problems in the supply chain, a decrease in market value, diminished trust in brands, increased surveillance of companies, as well as damage to the environment.

This book offers a holistic view of the nature and consequences of environmental fraud, bringing together practical examples, empirical research data, and management theory. It will be of interest to academics working in the fields of sustainability management, business ethics, and corporate social and environmental responsibility.
