Cooperative State: A Model of Addressing Business Sustainability Issues

Abul Kalam Azad

International Journal of Management Sciences, 2014, vol. 3, issue 8, 612-615

Abstract: Since the Rio Summit, companies around the world have had to carry out structural reforms to deal with the issues relating to environmental health, in other words, global warming or climate change or loss of biodiversity, and use of child labour. Financial crisis or economic recession has also been amongst the major issues in sustainability in the global and national contexts. The general allegations against businesses are that factories use child labour which goes against human rights, factories and transports emit carbon dioxides and other stuff that degrade environment and create global worming which is increasingly melting ice and will eventually make the seas cover the currently useful lands on the earth. Against this backdrop, different rules, regulations and attitudes have been in force at national and international levels that put businesses more or less vulnerable position. This essay attempts to address the issue by outlining a new idea of ‘Cooperative State’.
