“…Environmental-social then social-political integrations or environmental-economic then economic-political integrations are two ways to communicate societal demands "on behalf of the environment" [51]. Establishing conventions and procedures for regulating each sphere in relation to the others, to ensure the concurrent respect for quality/performance goals of all three spheres, constitutes the political or governance dimension of the organization [10]. This is the area of arbitrage between various principles and asserts of concern, obtained de facto or on purpose through coercion and institutional arrangements ranging from town and county councils to national government institutions to United Nations and other active international organizations.…”

“…The conference outcome document for the UNCED included Agenda 21 as one of the critical sustainable development outcomes. It urged that national policies be devised and implemented to address the economic, social, and environmental components of sustainable development after stating that sustainable development should become an essential item on the international community's agenda [10]. The World Summit on Sustainable Development (WSSD), also known as Rio+10, was convened in Johannesburg in 2002 to assess the status of putting the Rio Earth Summit's outcomes into practice.…”

This paper delves into the multifaceted concept of sustainability, covering its evolution, laws, principles, as well as the different domains and challenges related to achieving it in the modern world. Although capitalism, socialism, and communism have been utilized throughout history, their strengths and drawbacks have failed to address sustainable development comprehensively. Therefore, a holistic approach is necessary, which forms the basis for a new development model called sustainalism. This study proposes a new socio-economic theory of sustainalism that prioritizes quality of life, social equity, culture, world peace, social justice, and well-being. This paper outlines the six principles of sustainalism and identifies sustainalists as individuals who embrace these new concepts. This study also explores how to attain sustainalism in the modern world through a sustainable revolution, representing a step toward a sustainable era. In conclusion, this paper summarizes the key points and emphasizes the need for a new approach to sustainalism in the broader sense. The insights provided are valuable for further research on sustainalism and sustainability.

“…However, the current methods used for assessment do not always address all dimensions of sustainability. Taking the matter further, [15] assert that the inclusion of political and technological dimensions is now being considered in the performance assessment of RSCs focusing on sustainability. Ref.…”

Approaches to Performance Assessment in Reverse Supply Chains: A Systematic Literature Review

et al. 2023

Background: The interest in the topic of performance assessment in reverse supply chains (RSC) is increasing, although the body of research is still in its early stages. As this is a developing field, it is crucial to expand discussions on topics that have not yet been thoroughly examined, such as the intrinsic bias of indicators and metrics that may be associated with specific operational, economic, environmental perspectives, etc. Such perspectives should be considered in the decision-making process within the context of reverse logistics (RL) and waste management (WM). The aim of this research was to identify different perspectives employed in the development of proposed models in the literature. Methods: A systematic literature review was conducted to analyze thirty papers from Scopus, Web of Science, and Science Direct databases without time restrictions. Results: The review identified various ways in which authors grouped perspectives, including qualitative and quantitative, sustainability, and operational perspectives, among others. Conclusions: This study revealed several gaps in the field, including limited studies on RSC performance assessment and a lack of studies linking performance assessment to decision-making components.

Industry 4.0 refers to a set of technologies that facilitate the development of value chain, resulting in shorter lead times, higher quality products and better organisational performance. These innovative smart technologies have the potential to address widespread sustainability concerns, while having the capacity to enhance production, and can morally impact sustainable development. Recently, manufacturing sector has vital influence on environmental, social and economic aspects of sustainability, owing to their substantial demands on energy, water, materials and other resources. The goal of this study is to analyse sustainable manufacturing and Industry 4.0 (I4.0) research studies with an emphasis on manufacturing domain. To clarify how these revolutionary technologies might affect sustainability of manufacturing industries, systematic literature review (SLR) of prior studies on sustainable manufacturing and I4.0 featuring from its conception to performance measures was done. To conduct the review, literature search was directed using SCOPUS and Web of Science databases. A total of 442 articles that were published in reputed journals between 2009 and 2022 were shortlisted for comprehensive review. The study conclusions gave vital information on several viewpoints of sustainable I4.0 in manufacturing organisation. A conceptual framework with five layers based on SLR was established to direct and aid manufacturing industries towards sustainable I4.0 implementation. The framework supports manufacturing sector to focus on sustainable I4.0 for sustainable economic value creation and development using digital technologies.
