Summary: The purpose of this study is to propose an improved DEA model to analyze the performance of provincial industrial systems (ISs) in China. The empirical analysis reveals valuable research findings, including the low overall environmental performance of Chinese ISs, the high performance of the production subsystem, the low performance of the pollution control subsystem, the low technological level of Chinese ISs, and targeted suggestions for promoting green development.

Summary: This paper introduces a practical technique, network data envelopment analysis (NDEA), for assessing the performance of sustainable supply chain management (SSCM). A new NDEA model is proposed to evaluate the efficiency of SSCM under uncertain conditions. The efficacy of the proposed method is demonstrated through a case study in the soft drinks industry.

Summary: This study introduces pollutant emissions and other factors into the measurement of environmental efficiency for firms, decomposing it into stage-specific environmental efficiencies. Results show the importance of maintaining efficiency at all stages to achieve overall environmental efficiency, while also identifying key factors contributing to environmental inefficiency. Policy recommendations are proposed based on the findings.

Summary: The study reveals a negative correlation between profitability and asset utilization from an internal accounting perspective, with manufacturing companies being less efficient in translating profitability into firm value compared to asset utilization. There has been a declining efficacy of value-based supply chain management approaches in manufacturing industries since 2007, which has been compensated for by overall firm value appreciation in the stock markets until 2015.

Summary: The aim of this study is to compare the environmental and economic performance of companies listed on the regulated markets of the EU. The research analyzes data from 2011 to 2020 in 10 industries and finds that companies with high environmental index may not necessarily have the highest economic performance, and there are differences across industries.

Summary: This study analyzed 130 accidents that occurred from 2005 to 2021 and found that small and medium-sized enterprises had a higher accident rate than large companies. 67.0% of companies had inadequate PSM levels, indicating a high probability of major industrial accidents. The study concluded that an improved PSM system and management plan can prevent major industrial accidents.

Summary: This study proposes a fuzzy game approach network data envelopment analysis model to evaluate waste management performance, addressing the uncertainty in many circular indicators. The model maximizes the potential joint efficiencies of production and recycling processes from the perspective of centralized control and circular economy. A real-case study on European Union waste management performance is conducted, providing valuable information for policy makers to promote waste management hierarchy and achieve waste reuse, recycling, and energy recovery.

Summary: Internal and external cooperation are important strategies for increasing profits in large groups like chain hotels. However, current studies on evaluating cooperative performance and allocating joint payoff in large groups are limited. In this study, we propose a cooperative game with coalition structures to evaluate cooperative performance and allocate joint payoff among different subsidiaries in a large group. The proposed game is based on network DEA and cooperative game theory, and the two-step Shapley value is used to allocate the overall payoff to sub-units.

Summary: The development of industrial parks plays a vital role in the economic growth of developed and developing nations. However, due to globalization and increased environmental awareness, the pursuit of net-zero carbon emissions by major economies has impacted industrial park development. This study evaluates the operational management performance of industrial parks in Taiwan, focusing on ESG factors, to guide future industrial development strategies and policies.

Summary: The development of the port industry has resulted in both economic growth and environmental pollution. In order to prioritize green development, port managers have started setting green performance targets. However, current research lacks consideration for the disparity between management goals and green targets for similar ports. To address this, we propose innovative models that provide best-practice green targets based on data analysis. These models help ports achieve their ambitious green goals gradually through stepwise reallocation paths.

Summary: CEOs often apologize in public to minimize social disapproval after a corporate crisis. We study how certain nonverbal and verbal cues in a CEO public apology affect the social disapproval of a firm and the underlying mechanism of these effects. Our findings contribute to a better understanding of stakeholder expectations in the aftermath of a corporate crisis and affect firms' crisis response strategies and leadership responsibilities.

Summary: This study focuses on the National Specially Monitored firms of China and explores the impact of external stakeholder pressure on these firms' tendencies to disengage from pollution stigma. The research finds that there are diminishing returns to scale in the joint effect between different types of pressure, and that mimetic pressure from environmental protection exemplary firms can exacerbate when stigma responsibility dilution is low, while dilution of stigma responsibility weakens the positive effect of stigma intensity on firms' disengagement tendencies.
