Circular Economy 5.0 on Its Way: A Digital Sustainability Transition
提出了循环经济5.0概念，结合产业5.0与数字可持续性，通过系统思维建模分析制度压力和组织准备度如何推动企业采纳循环经济5.0，并给出管理者和政策制定者的实践启示。
Our research introduces the concept of Circular Economy (CE) 5.0 into the digital sustainability paradigm. We argue that CE 5.0, which integrates CE with Industry 5.0, can unlock new opportunities to boost business resilience, environmental sustainability, and societal welfare. We explore a key set of drivers and enablers of the CE 5.0 transition, focusing on the influence of institutional pressures and organizational readiness. Through systems thinking, we develop a model that maps the complex cause–effect interactions between organizations and their institutional environment when shifting to CE 5.0. Our analysis shows how institutional pressures create feedback dynamics that stimulate CE 5.0 adoption, with organizational readiness catalyzing this process. To highlight the model’s practical value, we share insights from real-world CE 5.0 implementation cases, and offer actionable implications for managers and policymakers to navigate this digital sustainability transition.
