How Green Is Green Entrepreneurship? – the Paths and Pathways of Eco-Modernization in the Case of the Automotive Industry

EasyChair Preprint 3315

Abstract

Environmental and social crises have put humans at the forefront of their entire developmental dilemma. How to survive on a limited planet with a growing population and declining livelihoods? The current neoliberal policy has not met people's expectations, neither on a social level or on an environmental level. Inequality in society is increasing, environmental problems continue and escalate and human-human conflicts and their nature deepen. Finding solutions to emerging problems for space is becoming a necessity for all living things on the planet. If we adopted the concept of sustainable development in the mid-1980s, we can summarize today that we have not reduced the problems but further deepened them. Just as in the case of sustainability, where there is ambiguity in the interpretation of the concept and precisely because of this realization of its goals in space, the concepts of green entrepreneurship and green capitalism must be considered constructively critical. The very concept of "green" does not yet mean a truly environmentally and socially successful transformation which will be presented below.

Keyphrases: ENVIRONMENTAL CRISES, Neoliberal policy, green entrepreneurship, sustainable development
