摘要

企业活动引发的日益严重的环境问题引起了学术界和发展专家对在不损害环境的情况下促进增长和发展的机制的关注。因此，关于生态创新的讨论已成为热门话题，但对这一主题的理解仍然缺乏。生态创新强调技术创新和环境保护的两重性，作为解决这两个目标之间内在紧张关系的长期解决方案。尽管如此，关于如何兼顾内部和外部因素提高生态创新绩效的研究却很少。认识到外部环境的动态性，本研究以制度理论为基础，探讨制度压力对生态创新的影响。我们采用横断面调查方法从155家企业中获取数据。结果表明，制度压力(规范性压力、模仿压力和强制性压力)和环境复杂性(EC)对生态创新具有积极的促进作用。环境动态对规范压力与生态创新之间的关系具有正向调节作用，而环境动态对模仿压力、规范压力与生态创新之间的关系具有正向调节作用。鉴于这些开创性的发现很少受到研究关注，我们提出了政策、理论和实践意义。

Institutional Pressure and Eco-innovation: The Moderating Role of Environmental Uncertainty

The growing environmental difficulties triggered by enterprises’ activities have drawn academics and development experts’ attention to mechanisms to advance growth and development without compromising the environment. Discussions about eco-innovation have become topical as a result, yet there still remains a dearth of understanding on the subject. Eco-innovation emphasises the duality of technological innovation and environmental protection as long-term solutions to the inherent tensions between these goals. Despite this, there has been little research on methods to improve eco-innovation performance, taking into account internal and external factors. Cognizant of the external environment’s dynamics, this study, based on institutional theory, investigates how institutional pressure affects eco-innovation. We used a cross-sectional survey approach to draw data from 155 businesses. Results revealed institutional pressures, that is, normative, mimetic, and coercive, also environmental complexity (EC) has a positive role in promoting eco-innovation. While environmental dynamics was found to have a positive moderating effect on the relationship between normative pressure and eco-innovation, EC was revealed to have a moderating influence on the relationship between mimetic, normative pressure, and eco-innovation. In light of these seminal findings that have received little research attention, we propose policy, theoretical, and practical implications.

期刊介绍： Science, Technology and Society is an international journal devoted to the study of science and technology in social context. It focuses on the way in which advances in science and technology influence society and vice versa. It is a peer-reviewed journal that takes an interdisciplinary perspective, encouraging analyses whose approaches are drawn from a variety of disciplines such as history, sociology, philosophy, economics, political science and international relations, science policy involving innovation, foresight studies involving science and technology, technology management, environmental studies, energy studies and gender studies. The journal consciously endeavors to combine scholarly perspectives relevant to academic research and policy issues relating to development. Besides research articles the journal encourages research-based country reports, commentaries and book reviews.
