Valsts atbalsts subsidētās elektroenerģijas ražošanai un tā loma enerģētikas nozares attīstībā

2019

Straujie izaugsmes tempi pasaules ekonomikā ietekmē pasaules enerģētikas tirgu. Aktuāli kļūst divi enerģētikas pamatjautājumi – enerģētiskā atkarība un klimata pārmaiņas. Valstu valdības ar vien vairāk uzmanību pievērš atjaunojamiem energoresursiem jeb tā dēvētajai zaļajai enerģētikai. Eiropas Savienības dalībvalstis ir noteikušas savus individuālos mērķus atjaunojamo energoresursu izmantošanā, kuri atšķiras gan līdz šim izmantoto tehnoloģiju, gan valsts radīto atbalsta instrumentu efektivitātē.

Understanding the purchasing behavior of consumers in response to sustainable marketing practices: An empirical analysis in the food domain

2021

Sustainability has become an important driver in defining business strategies, affecting most critical corporate functions and changing the way in which value is created, communicated, and distributed. This is increasingly impacting marketing practices, in particular, through promoting the development of sustainable marketing in the food sector. In line with this, our study aimed to investigate if and how sustainable marketing practices affect consumer loyalty to a specific brand. To answer our research questions, we relied on the results of a survey submitted to a sample of 907 Italian consumers of biscuits. Results showed that the consumers’ attention to sustainable issues (in the absence…

50 Shades of Green: Insights into Personal Values and Worldviews as Drivers of Green Purchasing Intention, Behaviour, and Experience

2021

Despite the booming interest in determinants of green (i.e., sustainable) consumption, the psychological factors that influence pro-environmental consumption patterns are not yet fully understood. To answer this call, we developed and analysed a model that offers an integrative approach to sustainable consumption patterns by addressing the full palette of consumers’ personal value orientations. Specifically, we linked consumers’ egoistic, altruistic, and biospheric values at the personal level to pro-environmental purchasing intentions, behaviours, and experiences. Furthermore, we examined whether implicit beliefs about the balance between humanity and nature (i.e., worldviews) moderate the…

Alliances between For-Profit and Non-Profit Organizations as an Instrument to Implement the Economy for the Common Good

2020

The model of the Economy for the Common Good (ECG) has cooperation as one of its main principles. This alternative economic model proposes to prioritize cooperation over competition to favor the creation of social value. From this point of view, strategic alliances between organizations can be used as an instrument that supports implementation of the ECG model. In recent years, alliances between for-profit and non-profit entities have been strengthened as a method to facilitate actions focused on social responsibility and sustainability. Moreover, the ECG model has become an adequate management framework for corporate sustainability. This work aims to connect alliances between for-profit an…

Sustainable Higher Education and Technology-Enhanced Learning (TEL)

2018

The field of education is not immune to advances in sophisticated information and communication technology (ICT). Going beyond the ICT-hype, the objective of this paper is to examine to what extent and how technology-enhanced teaching and learning (TEL) can enhance teaching and learning and, hence, turn them into levers of sustainable socio-economic growth and development. To address these questions, a multidimensional survey was developed and distributed internationally to lecturers/professors active in the field of higher education. The initial point of departure for this study was consistent with the well-referenced in the literature thesis that TEL has profound value added in view of en…
