Book The Green Developmental State

Download or read book The Green Developmental State written by Scott A. Russell and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the greatest challenges facing states in the 21st century is the development of an environmentally sustainable techno-industrial paradigm. In recent years, governments across East Asia have begun to respond to this challenge through technology-based climate change mitigation strategies. Of these states, Taiwan's efforts in the promotion of renewable energy technologies, particularly solar photovoltaic technology has been the subject of increasing scrutiny. The puzzle this study seeks to address is the divergence between Taiwan's promotion of renewable energy as a strategically important emerging industry, and its slow domestic deployment of renewable energy technology in recent years. I suggest that Taiwan's 'green' industry policy is the result of institutional recombination within a polarised political environment, which has supported the development of new strategic growth industries but limited certain state capacities in domestic market formation. I explore the development of cooperative institutional linkages between public R&D institutions, industry associations and private business in Taiwan's solar energy and smart grid sector. I also examine how polarisation in Taiwan's political environment has limited the state's capacity to pursue domestic energy system transformation. These findings have implications for debates on developmental states confronting the challenge of innovation-based economic growth, and processes of institutional change. Taiwan demonstrates the importance of domestic political factors in determining a state's capacity to transform its economy to a low-carbon techno-industrial paradigm.

Book Social Innovation and Business in Taiwan

Download or read book Social Innovation and Business in Taiwan written by Sheng-Tsung Hou and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-04-29 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Globalization and technological innovation have greatly enhanced the free mobility of currencies, commodities, services, information, jobs and people; yet this can also cause gaps in regional development and create uneven wealth in minority economies. Social Innovation and Business in Taiwan links the ultimate goal of the common good by connecting people not just through technology, but through new forms of organization. Based on five major research cases observed in Taiwan, this book introduces the core concept of a social innovation system to show how the common good can be established, adapted and diffused across communities, societies and national boundaries. By identifying effective and sustainable ways to create social value, this innovation system shows a universally true way to lead to a more humane global society.

Download or read book Green Asia written by Tania Lewis and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-09-13 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Economic development in Asia is associated with expanding urbanism, overconsumption, and a steep growth in living standards. At the same time, rapid urbanisation, changing class consciousness, and a new rural–urban divide in the region have led to fundamental shifts in the way ecological concerns are articulated politically and culturally. Moreover, these changes are often viewed through a Western moralistic lens, which at the same time applauds Asia’s economic growth as the welcome reviver of a floundering world economy and simultaneously condemns this growth as encouraging hyperconsumerism and a rupture with more natural ways of living. This book presents an analysis of a range of practices and activities from across Asia that demonstrate that people in Asia are alert to ecological concerns, that they are taking action to implement new styles of green living, and that Asia offers interesting alternatives to narrow Anglo-American models of sustainable living. Subjects explored include eco-tourism in the Philippines, green co-operatives in Korea, the importance of "tradition" within Asian discourses of sustainability, and much more.

Book Handbook of Research on Approaches to Alternative Entrepreneurship Opportunities

Download or read book Handbook of Research on Approaches to Alternative Entrepreneurship Opportunities written by Dantas, José Guilherme Leitão and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2020-02-25 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In some cases, technology-based projects have revolutionized the way of living by contributing to job and wealth creation. These types of ventures, regardless of their outstanding relevance, are the exception rather than the norm in that they account for only a very small percentage of entrepreneurial activity. Although not ignoring these important ventures, the main goal of this title is to fully unleash the wide potential of the entrepreneurial activity, exploring and highlighting the somewhat hidden part, which is ultimately responsible for the largest part of new businesses and, as a consequence, for the wellbeing of millions of people virtually everywhere. The Handbook of Research on Approaches to Alternative Entrepreneurship Opportunities is a collection of innovative research on the methods and applications of entrepreneurial activity beyond the traditional boundaries of entrepreneurship research. While highlighting topics including collective business, organizational performance, and generational differences, this book is ideally designed for entrepreneurs, developers, researchers, business managers, industry professionals, academicians, and students seeking to draw attention to distinctive and multifaceted types of entrepreneurship.
