Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper identifies a dynamic boundary condition of the Porter hypothesis by examining how firms' pre‐existing innovation trajectories shape regulatory‐induced green innovation within the context of a market‐based carbon policy. Building on path dependency theory, we argue that firms' responses to environmental regulation are contingent on ...
