This article responds to the need for more conceptually ambitious marketing scholarship capable of grappling with sustainability as a dynamic, contested, and future-oriented phenomenon. We identify key conceptual and methodological barriers that have constrained sustainability theorizing in marketing and examine how foundational perspectives within the discipline can be re-imagined and extended to meet these demands. Through a review of conceptual contributions in <i>AMS Review</i>, we trace how sustainability-related thinking has evolved within the field and assess the potential of three marketing-indigenous theories—Service-Dominant Logic, Resource-Advantage Theory, and Market Shaping—to inform the development of sustainability theory. Building on this foundation, we propose a future research agenda structured around four interlinked themes: (1) advancing system-level theorizing, (2) reimagining stakeholder responsibility to include nature and future generations, (3) conceptualizing sustainability as a dynamic resource domain, and (4) enabling prospective theorizing to support the shaping of more sustainable market futures.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":7786,"journal":{"name":"AMS Review","volume":"15 1-2","pages":"3 - 22"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-08-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s13162-025-00320-1.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145011457","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While this growing body of work has examined relevant drivers and barriers and explored strategies for facilitating such transitions, the concept of sustainable resource integration remains underdeveloped. With no clear definition to guide research and practice, the need for theorizing resource integration from a sustainability perspective is key. To address this gap, the present study employed a theory adaptation approach, drawing on service-dominant logic (domain theory) and sustainability and circular economy (method theories) to define sustainable resource integration as using resources in ways that are materially supportable, performatively viable, and temporally adaptive, such that the activities can be continued without undermining the systemic conditions it depends upon. In addition to a definition, the paper provides three propositions as a foundation for theorizing sustainable resource integration and its role in the evolution of service ecosystems.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":7786,"journal":{"name":"AMS Review","volume":"15 1-2","pages":"142 - 156"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-07-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s13162-025-00315-y.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145011740","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While marketing scholarship has extensively examined consumers’ psychological reactions to such initiatives, primarily focusing on consumer well-being, a critical gap persists. Current research offers insufficient insight into how these efforts concretely benefit firms, aid policymakers, and enhance provider and societal well-being through tangible user responses like purchase behaviors, thereby limiting advancements in both marketing theory and practice. This systematic review (62 articles, 1997–2024) addresses the aforementioned gap by not just examining the effects of firms’ green initiatives on user psychological responses, but also the potential implications for provider and society well-being. Our findings highlight significant shortcomings in the current literature: (1) a commonly accepted definition of “green” marketing strategies is missing, (2) current measures of green perceptions appear to be unidimensional, (3) the behavioral outcomes of green initiatives are understudied, and (4) the literature offers limited insight as to how consumers respond to different types of green initiatives. In response to these shortcomings, a consensus definition of green initiatives is offered, factors that drive consumers’ assessments of green strategic initiatives are identified, a model depicting the antecedents of and outcomes from green initiatives is offered to suggest how such efforts have utility for providers, users, and society, and a research agenda is suggested.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":7786,"journal":{"name":"AMS Review","volume":"15 1-2","pages":"261 - 288"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-07-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145011756","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Employing a PRISMA-based methodology, this review identifies dominant theories—including Stakeholder, Agency, and Legitimacy theories—that explain the varied impacts of ESG on firm value. The evidence suggests that ESG integration generally enhances corporate reputation and performance; however, these effects are highly context-specific and influenced by regional, sectoral, and governance variations. Key limitations include the exclusive reliance on the Scopus database, which may overlook relevant studies in non-indexed journals, and the predominance of secondary data, which might not capture the nuanced effects of ESG practices. Additionally, heterogeneity in ESG metrics complicates cross-study comparisons, highlighting the need for more standardised scoring systems. The findings underscore significant research gaps, particularly the need for cross-country and sector-specific studies, and advocate for methodological advancements such as mixed methods and longitudinal approaches to better understand ESG’s long-term impacts. Implications for practice include the necessity for companies to tailor ESG strategies to their specific contexts and for policymakers to promote standardised ESG disclosures. This review provides a foundation for future research to explore more nuanced, context-aware approaches to ESG, thereby advancing its role in shaping corporate valuation in accounting and organizational studies.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":7786,"journal":{"name":"AMS Review","volume":"15 1-2","pages":"228 - 260"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-06-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145011622","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
