Series: Routledge Advances in Management and Business Studies

The book explores how diverse stakeholder groups—particularly community and regulatory stakeholders—shape corporate environmental practices. Focusing on one of the world’s largest economies, this book provides an in-depth analysis of stakeholder dynamics and their impact on corporate environmental performance and disclosure.

Environmental governance has become a global imperative as environmental crises intensify and stakeholder expectations grow. The book examines the interplay between community advocacy and regulatory actions and particularly focuses on how community stakeholders drive corporate accountability by pressuring regulatory authorities to enforce stricter measures or provide financial incentives. The chapters include discussions on the role of public environmental awareness and concern in shaping corporate performance and disclosure practices. The book also highlights how regulatory influence mediates the relationship between community influence and corporate environmental outcomes, offering new insights into the interactive dynamics of stakeholder influence.

This book will be of interest to policymakers, corporate managers, and academics seeking to understand the nuanced relationships between businesses, governments, and communities. It offers actionable recommendations for fostering effective environmental governance and sustainable corporate practices.
