Sustainable Innovation and Global Inequalities

This volume examines how emerging technologies can help resolve the tension between multinational enterprise activity, environmental sustainability, and rising global inequality. Featuring international, multidisciplinary research, the collected chapters contribute to ongoing interdisciplinary and intercultural discourse regarding the societal impact of business and emerging technologies. Together, the chapters interrogate the Multinational Enterprises-Inequality Paradox, offering conceptual frameworks, empirical evidence, and policy-relevant insights into sustainable innovation, climate governance, and equitable development. This book will appeal to researchers, graduate students, and practitioners in international business, development economics, sustainability studies, and public policy, as well as policymakers seeking evidence-based strategies for harnessing emerging technologies to reduce global inequality.
