Collaborating for Circularity: A Relational View Perspective on Buyer–Supplier Relationships in Restorative and Regenerative Supply Chains

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Industrial firms are required to redesign their supply chains into restorative and regenerative archetypes, rethinking not only their own production systems but also relationships with suppliers that may possess resources, capabilities, and knowledge too complex to be developed on their own but vital for circular value creation.

Bridging Policy Gaps in Transition Times: How Local Actors Navigate Low Policy Coherence for Advancing a Circular Built Environment

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The construction sector is a major contributor to the climate crisis, accounting for over one‐third of global energy‐related CO2 emissions. In response, the European Commission identified the circular economy as a means of achieving green growth and prioritized the construction sector in its Circular Economy Action Plan.
