Summary The production and use of durable goods have severe consequences for the natural environment. Reducing those influences is highly desirable and is possible to achieve by changing customers’ preferences and promoting the purchase and usage of more green or eco-friendly substitutes. In this paper, we aimed to answer the following questions: (1) What are the main determinants of WTP for sustainable durable goods? (2) What are the main policy measures that influence WTP, and do they have a significant impact on it? (3) What are the main contributions of authors dealing with the topic of sustainable consumption? A manual content analysis was conducted, based on a sample of papers downloaded from the SCOPUS database that address the issue of willingness to pay for sustainable durable goods. Our analyses revealed that the socioeconomic characteristics of consumers have a significant impact on their WTP. Additionally, it has been proven that subjectively expressed environmental awareness correlates with eco-friendly declarations and actual behaviour. The most common policy measures to promote sustainable products were labelling and certification. There is significant room for further research by adding new contexts to previous analyses and also by looking for possibilities to transfer theoretical knowledge into business practice.

In light of the decreasing level of biodiversity in the seas and oceans, humanity has to take action to simultaneously maintain a socio-ecological balance and a satisfactory level of fish catches. The degree to which these priorities are achieved can be analyzed using measures of eco-efficiency. The aim of this paper is to present the concept of eco-efficiency in fisheries in literature. In other words, to find out and compare which definitions and measurement methods are most often used by researchers in this area. For this purpose, manual content analysis has been used to research documents available in the SCOPUS database. The review found that, while literature on eco-efficiency in agriculture is abundant, there is still a deficit of research strictly on the fisheries sector. Among 980 articles, only 8 dealt accurately with the selected issue. The most common definition of eco-efficiency is the one proposed by the WBCSD, and the dominant method for measuring eco-efficiency in fisheries is DEA+LCA; however, social aspects are often omitted in these studies, and the studies themselves have a short time span. It is also mentioned that the results obtained in fisheries have lower reliability than in the agricultural sector, mainly due to the phenomenon of bycatch and poorer control of activity at sea.
