Strategic corporate environmentalism

Pim Heijnen

Chapter 107 in Elgar Encyclopedia of Public Choice, 2025, pp 766-768 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: The strategic motives for engaging in corporate environmentalism are examined, i.e., going beyond minimum environmental quality standards as a way to influence future regulation or market conditions. The main focus is on self-regulation as a way to block (even stricter) future regulation, but overcompliance and entry barriers as a way to favorably influence market conditions are also investigated.
