“…Eighth, even in developed countries, social variability in the implementation of Industry 4.0 is reported as complicating transformative integration [ 139 ]. Complementary alternatives to mainstream development approaches that are socially inclusive and shape technologies, require specific integration techniques.…”

“…Thus, economic development can also be measured with indices describing economic welfare and with indicators related to the category of sustainable development. It should be emphasized that the inclusion of the concept of sustainable development in the construction of the synthetic measure means that it should include additional categories, such as social and environmental order (more in: [51,52,87,88]). Access to modern energy is believed to be a prerequisite for sustainable development, poverty alleviation, and the achievement of the Millennium Development Goals [12].…”

The purpose of this paper is a multidimensional assessment of the diversification of economic development in EU countries in the context of the progress in the implementation of the concept of sustainable development in 2014 and 2019. The issues discussed in this article are topical and important, given that the spatial disparity of economic development in the EU has never been so pronounced as it is today. While there is a wealth of studies on economic development in the literature, research on the comprehensive approach to this problem in the relation of sustainable development appears to be rather scarce. The article emphasizes the role of energy in economic growth. Authors used taxonomic measures. They were constructed on the basis of selected methods of multidimensional comparative analysis. By using the Hellwig method and the TOPSIS method, taxonomic measures were constructed, and linear ordering of the EU countries was carried out. In addition, using the so-called threshold method, the clustering of EU countries was carried out. The analysis involved 27 EU countries. The conducted research revealed significant disproportions between the respective EU countries in terms of the level of economic development in the relation of implementing the concept of sustainable development. It seems justified to take action aimed at eliminating the differences between the countries in the analyzed aspect. It is necessary both to intensify efforts at the level of individual Member States and the EU, oriented towards pro-development activities.

“…Sustainable development of enterprises means taking actions to achieve their fundamental economic goal and supplementing it with issues related to its operation's social and environmental aspects (Trojanowski, 2015;Pieloch et al, 2020). The enterprise's sustainable development meets its direct and indirect stakeholders' needs, both present and future (Dyllick and Hockerts, 2002;Wyrwa et al, 2020). It is a philosophy and management style in which the current success should also consider future development prospects (Boudreau and Ramstad, 2005).…”

Purpose: The paper's primary purpose is to assess environmental taxes ' impact on sustainable development of manufacturing enterprises in emerging and developing economies in the European Union in 2008-2019. Design/Methodology/Approach: This paper is both theoretical and empirical. The survey covers the European Union countries classified as emerging and developing economies by the International Monetary Fund including Bulgaria, Croatia, Poland, Romania and Hungary. The first part discusses the fundamental issues related to sustainable development and environmental taxes. The empirical part includes the methodology and results of the study. To determine the relationship between environmental taxes and sustainable development, we use the Pearson correlation coefficient and the Least Square Method. Findings: The results indicate that there is a statistically significant relationship between the variables. Environmental taxes are one of the critical determinants of sustainable development of manufacturing enterprises. The models show that the impact of individual taxes is different in the analyzed countries. Practical Implications: The results show that environmental taxes are essential to sustainable development. Hence, it is necessary to increase their importance and reform the tax system in the EU. Originality/Value: The statistical assessment of the impact of environmental taxes on enterprises' sustainable development is relatively poorly understood. The issue is new and contemporary and requires further analysis. Environmental taxes are a significant issue in the era of counteracting climate change. It is necessary to increase the importance of environmental taxes and their effects on economic processes.
