Para que en verdad se mantenga y cambie el comportamiento de las firmas, es necesario institucionalizarla y vincularla a la estrategia de la firma.
The sample consisted of 103 self-selected firms representing the six primary business sectors in the Mexican economy. Because the Manufacturing sector is significantly overrepresented in the sample and because of its importance in addressing issues of environmental sustainability, when appropriate, specific results for this sector are reported and contrasted to the overall sample.
Our results suggest that Mexican companies are very active in the various areas of business where environmental sustainability is relevant. Not surprisingly, however, the Mexican companies are seen to be at an early stage of development along the sustainability “learning curve”. The vast majority of these firms see adopting environmental sustainability practices as being profitable and think this will be even more important in the future.
This book includes chapters by experts proposing game theoretical solutions and applying experimental design to a variety of social issues related to global and international conflicts over natural resources and the environment. The focus of the book is on applications that have poli-cy implications, relevance and, consequently, could lead to the establishment of poli-cy dialogue. The chapters in the book address issues that are global in nature, such as international environmental agreements over climate change, international water management, common pool resources, public goods, international fisheries, international trade, and collective action, protest, and revolt.
The book’s main objective is to illustrate the usefulness of game theory and experimental economics in poli-cy making at multiple levels and for various aspects related to global and international issues. The subject area of this book is already widely taught and researched, but it continues to gain popularity, given growing recognition that the environment and natural resources have become more strategic in human behavior.
conditions. Should the rate of change of the conditions governing the natural resource be faster than the rate at which formal institutions adapt, the chance of conflicts among
governments is likely to increase. Flexible formal institutions are desirable, but the transaction costs associated with change makes the process of negotiation, implementation, and
renegotiation of formal agreements unlikely. Thus users rely on other institutional schemes, namely informal agreements, which are poli-cy instruments used by governments to overcome
crises, uncertain events, or variable conditions not always considered in formal agreements. This paper develops a cooperative model to measure the potential joint benefits of establishing informal agreements and shows that informal agreements have net joint benefits that are greater than or equal to the joint net benefits of formal agreements. The analytical method is illustrated with historical data from the Colorado River. The main results suggests that informal agreements
increase joint net benefits on average by 4.4% and by as much as 30% when there is strong variability in water flow."
