This study bridges this gap and significantly advances studies CE, board governance, innovation, and sustainability by assessing the critical function of board capital in driving CE strategies within manufacturing companies in emerging economies, specifically the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) area. Drawing on agency theory and resource‐based theory, the study develops models to assess the influence of board human and social capital on CE strategies, with innovation capacity as a key moderating factor. Using panel data from 268 manufacturing firms between 2010 and 2022 and employing dynamic generalized method of moments (GMM) technique, the outcome reveal that both board human and social capital significantly and positively influence CE strategies. Notably, innovation capacity not only enhances CE strategies directly but also amplifies the impact of board capital, underscoring the synergistic connection between governance and innovation in driving sustainability. The study highlights substantial heterogeneity in the effect of board capital on CE strategies across the MENA region. These findings remain robust after conducting several robustness and diagnostic tests. For firms, the study emphasizes the need to invest in building a diverse, skilled, and well‐connected board capable of leading circular strategies. For policymakers, it highlights the importance of creating frameworks that strengthen board governance and foster innovation ecosystems, enabling boards to promote the adoption of CE strategies.","PeriodicalId":9518,"journal":{"name":"Business Strategy and The Environment","volume":"27 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.4,"publicationDate":"2025-03-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143702750","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Transitioning to a circular economy (CE) requires strategic supplier evaluation to ensure sustainable sourcing. However, CE implementation in emerging economies remains underexplored, and no established framework exists for circular supplier selection (CSS) in the plastic industry. This study addresses a practical CSS problem faced by a leading Indian plastic manufacturer (the case organization) aiming to partner with an ideal supplier for developing innovative circular products. Through a Delphi study, eight key evaluation criteria were identified and validated. A multi‐criteria decision‐making (MCDM) framework integrating the entropy method (for criteria weighting) and the combined compromise solution (COCOSO) method (for supplier ranking) was applied. The findings reveal that “total consumption of toxic substances” and “reduction in workplace hazards through employee wellbeing activities” are the two most influential CSS criteria. Based on the ranking, the most suitable supplier was recommended to the case organization. This research reinforces supplier selection models by integrating social, environmental, and economic dimensions within a CE context. The novel entropy‐COCOSO framework further improves decision‐making by reducing subjectivity and improving ranking accuracy. Practically, the study provides managers and policymakers with a robust decision‐support tool to facilitate CE adoption in the plastic industry, guiding sustainable procurement strategies.","PeriodicalId":9518,"journal":{"name":"Business Strategy and The Environment","volume":"183 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.4,"publicationDate":"2025-03-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143695432","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We employ a critical hermeneutic framework to longitudinally analyse SR across three corporations, spanning periods before and after a significant socio‐political upheaval, notably the Egyptian revolution. Through a comprehensive examination comprising 29 sustainability and management reports, interviews with eight key stakeholders, analysis of 488 corporate social media posts (Facebook and Twitter) and scrutiny of 213 news media articles spanning 6 years (2009–2014), we uncover the role of SR in constructing and navigating social relations amid instability. Our findings reveal that SR functions to construct social connections during periods of uncertainty by crafting narratives that symbolically link corporations to newly empowered communities. Consequently, SR becomes a mechanism for reshaping corporate identity, portraying corporations as courageous and aligned with youthful aspirations, aligning their operations with the evolving socio‐political landscape. This study offers a nuanced understanding of how SR serves as a tool for corporate communication, enabling corporations to manage their image and relationships with emerging stakeholders while (re)shaping a political identity that signifies continuity and stability. Grounded in the context of the pre‐ and post‐Egyptian revolution, our analysis highlights the adaptive nature of corporate communication amidst shifting social and political landscapes.","PeriodicalId":9518,"journal":{"name":"Business Strategy and The Environment","volume":"28 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.4,"publicationDate":"2025-03-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143695284","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Unlike previous studies, this research examines the influence of the digital economy on environmental sustainability while investigating the mediating role of green innovation in this relationship. Using a panel dataset from BRICS countries covering the period 2004–2020, this study explores the impact of the digital economy by employing digital finance and digital infrastructure as proxies. Advanced econometric techniques, including the Cup‐FM, Cup‐BC, AMG, and CS‐ARDL methods, are applied to ensure robust panel data analysis. The findings reveal that, in the long run, digital finance, digital infrastructure, and green innovation exhibit a significant negative relationship with environmental degradation, thereby contributing positively to environmental sustainability in BRICS economies. Furthermore, mediation analysis using the Sobel, Aroian, and Goodman tests confirms that green innovation effectively mediates the impact of digital finance and digital infrastructure on environmental sustainability. However, the results also indicate that economic growth and population growth have a significant positive relationship with environmental degradation, highlighting their adverse effects on sustainability. Based on these findings, it is crucial for BRICS countries to implement policies and programs that foster the growth of digital finance and digital infrastructure as tools for promoting environmental sustainability. Policymakers should prioritize investment in digital finance and infrastructure to drive green innovation and support eco‐friendly manufacturing. Additionally, addressing digital access disparities to ensure inclusive participation in sustainable initiatives.","PeriodicalId":9518,"journal":{"name":"Business Strategy and The Environment","volume":"6 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.4,"publicationDate":"2025-03-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143661234","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
