以德国为例,概述了环境管理研究的三个主要维度:发展历程、1992-1993年的研究成果,以及从社会背景角度的评估,帮助读者判断本国环境管理研究的现状与前景。
Abstract This paper aims to outline three main dimensions of environmental management research in Germany as an exemplary case of the growing importance and development of ecologically oriented management in Western societies in general: (1) to describe the development and the main features of this research; (2) to summarize the results obtained so far (1992–1993); and (3) to assess both its development and results from the point of view of its broader social context. This should allow the reader to draw his/her own conclusions on the position and perspective of environmental management (research) in his/her own country. In this paper, environmental management refers to environmentally oriented management of and in (business) organizations in general, and not just to specific substantive environmental practices.
