Conceptual summary of the two enabling mechanisms of fringe community dialogue.

Although scholars have studied stakeholder dialogue, we lack studies that understand the effect of context on the structure and form of dialogue. To address this gap, in this research we focus on local rural communities that can be classified as fringe stakeholders to develop a comprehensive model of “fringe community dialogue”. As these neglected...

The purpose of this open access edited collection is to discuss the role and importance of stakeholder engagement in a sustainable circular economy from multiple theoretical and practical perspectives. Developing and maintaining a circular economy is an essential step to a more environmentally friendly and socially inclusive society. In addition to redesigning products and business models to minimise waste and increase the reuse of materials, a transition towards a sustainable circular economy requires collaboration and co-operation between various stakeholders from all parts of society. An international team of contributors explore how stakeholder engagement can foster and support sustainable change, assessing current literature and laying out guidance for future study. The collection is of interest to academics and students of sustainability management and sustainable business models, stakeholder theory and practice, and the circular economy.

The circular economy has been presented as a means to promote ecological, economic, and social sustainability. However, the connection between the circular economy and sustainability remains undefined in both theory and practice. In this chapter, we examine how a circular economy and its connection to sustainability are understood among key stakeholder groups promoting the circular economy in Finland, a forerunner country in sustainable development. Theoretically, we build on circular economy and corporate sustainability literature. Empirically, we conducted an analysis of 26 qualitative interviews with circular economy stakeholders. As a result, we present three categorisations of a sustainable circular economy: a business-centric circular economy, a systemic circular economy, and a regenerative circular economy. Our findings demonstrate that different stakeholder groups at the local, regional, and national levels acknowledge the importance of the circular economy for the promotion of sustainability. Stakeholder views vary in terms of how broadly sustainability is understood and to what extent a circular economy is connected to the promotion of economic, ecological, and social sustainability. The findings call for a dialogue among stakeholders on how the circular economy can promote sustainable development.
... In this conceptual paper, we focus on fringe stakeholders to examine how those who are marginalised and non-collaborative are treated in stakeholder and sustainability transition literature. Fringe stakeholders comprise poor, adversarial, weak, non-legitimate and divergent groups (Chowdhury et al., 2021;Hart & Sharma, 2004;Rodrigo & Duran, 2021). In addition, fringe stakeholders include non-collaborative ones that, for instance, question the prevalent structures in society and the ways in which governments, researcher institutions and those in societal power positions seek to address and find solutions to the sustainability crisis. ...

In this paper, we examine fringe stakeholders in the context of transitions towards sustainability. Fringe stakeholders refer to marginalised and non-collaborative stakeholders whose voices are not easy to account for. Our conceptual study integrates extant knowledge about the concept of fringe stakeholders to provide valuable insights into studying fringe stakeholders in sustainability transitions. We discuss challenges to addressing fringe stakeholders in the multi-stakeholder approach and draw lessons for research design from a review of empirical studies of fringe stakeholders in sustainability transitions in urban settings. Finally, we discuss the methodological features that enhance giving voice to fringe stakeholders in stakeholder engagement research. As a contribution to research on stakeholder engagement, our paper presents insights related to addressing fringe stakeholders in the contexts of theoretical framing, research design and methodology.
Purpose:
The purpose of this study is to develop a framework for categorizing and evaluating stakeholders that addresses the key five constraints of The Theory of Stakeholder Identification and Salience (TSIS), including (1) binary attributes, (2) heterogeneous stakeholders in each category, (3) ignoring stakeholder-organization relationship, (4) ignoring stakeholders' communication frequency and (5) ignoring fringe stakeholders.
Design/methodology/approach:
In the first step, a set of solutions for the limitations and constraints of TSIS was extracted by holding three rounds of the Delphi method with the participation of 42 senior and middle Iranian managers in various organizations and based on it, “Basic Analysis for Stakeholder Evaluation and Classification” (BASEClass) was developed as an enhanced theoretical and empirical framework for stakeholder analysis. In the second Step BASEClass is validated by conducting an empirical study in an organization with the participation of 46 managers, experts and specialists.
Findings:
BASEClass is an enhanced theoretical and methodological framework for classifying stakeholders based on the three primary attributes of legitimacy, power and urgency, and also the communication quantity as a complementary attribute in a 3D cubical schema, prioritizing stakeholders in several cubes based on one of the multi-criteria group decision-making methods.
Originality/value:
BASEClass effectively reduces the mentioned limitations and constraints of TSIS and as a result can improve the effectiveness of strategies for dealing with different stakeholders.
The problem of salt farmers in Madura, known as the Salt Island, is very complex. Starting from the high level of poverty, the quality of production, and the low price of salt to a serious threat to the sustainability of salt farmers. The purpose of this study is to analyze the growth of the people's salt farming business with the geomembrane method compared to traditional methods to describe the impact of innovation on business sustainability and to explore the sustainability of the people's salt farming business from the perspective of internal stakeholders based on stakeholder theory. This research uses a case study approach configurative ideographic studies as a research method. The results of the study found that the business growth rate using geomembrane was more profitable than using traditional methods, but only part of the farmers' land used geomembrane. People's salt farming business still have difficulty accessing People's Business Credit so that some still depend on receivables from traders/middlemen. Only a small part of the salt produced by the people's salt farming is purchased by PT Garam for quality reasons. With all the challenges, from the perspective of the actors, the people's salt business is still considered more profitable than other agricultural businesses.
Permasalahan petani garam di Madura yang dikenal dengan sebutan Pulau Garam sangat kompleks. Mulai dari tingginya tingkat kemiskinan, kualitas produksi, dan rendahnya harga garam menjadi sebuah ancaman serius bagi keberlanjutan petani garam Tujuan penelitian ini menganalisis pertumbuhan usaha tambak garam rakyat metode geomembran dibandingkan dengan metode tradisional untuk menggambarkan dampak inovasi terhadap keberlangsungan usaha dan mengekplorasi keberlanjutan usaha tambak garam rakyat dari sudut pandang internal stakeholders (pelaku usaha) berdasarkan teori stakeholders. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan studi kasus configurative ideographic studies sebagai metode penelitian. Hasil penelitian menemukan bahwa tingkat petumbuhan usaha menggunakan geomembran lebih menguntungkan dibandingkan dengan menggunakan metode tradisional, tetapi hanya sebagian lahan petani yang menggunakan geomembran. Pengusaha tambak garam rakyat masih kesulitan mengakses KUR (Kredit Usaha Rakyat) sehingga sebagian masih tergantung pada hutang piutang dengan pedagang/tengkulak. Garam yang dihasilkan oleh tambak garam rakyat hanya sebagian kecil saja yang dibeli oleh PT Garam karena alasan kualitas. Dengan segala tantangannya, berdasarkan sudut pandang pelaku, usaha garam rakyat masih dianggap lebih mengutungkan dibandingkan usaha pertanian yang lain.
