George J. Benston, professor of Finance, Accounting, and Economics
at Emory University's Goizueta Business School, died unexpectedly
in January 2008. He was an impassioned advocate for corporate
integrity and a unique scholar; his research interests were as
broad as those of any recent academician. His colleagues have
selected and organized his most important papers into two volumes.
This second volume consists of his publications in the fields of
accounting and finance. The editor has selected a broad range of
papers from each of the major areas that are representative of
Benston's work in that particular field. James D. Rosenfeld,
Professor of Finance, Accounting, and Economics, Goizueta Business
School, Emory University, serves as the editor and is assisted by
an editorial advisory board including George Kaufman, Greg Waymire,
Bob Eisenbeis, Larry Wall, Rashad Abdel-Kalik, and Lemma Senbet.
Climate change and the depletion of resources will have a
long-lasting effect on the globe. Thus, it is essential that
businesses and organizations across the world adopt financial
practices and strategies that allow them to continue their service,
limit emissions, and preserve resources. However, these practices
are only made more difficult to adopt within the context of a
turbulent economy. In this context, it is imperative to research
financial strategies to protect the environment and support
business resilience. Finance for Sustainability in a Turbulent
Economy provides international financial strategies to achieve
sustainable business practices within a turbulent economy. It
highlights the importance of maintaining environmental health in a
cost-effective way. Covering topics such as environmental finance,
renewable energy frameworks, and social responsibility, this
premier reference source is an essential resource for environmental
scientists, government officials, engineers, business executives,
environmentalists, politicians, students and educators of higher
education, researchers, and academicians.
Elgar Research Agendas outline the future of research in a given
area. Leading scholars are given the space to explore their subject

travel. They are relevant but also visionary. Offering fresh

forward-looking Research Agenda critically debates and rethinks
theories and practices in the property sector. Promoting
interdisciplinary approaches to the topic, chapters explore the

risks and investment behaviours, and finally examining the
institutional contexts and stakeholders that shape the industry.
Leading scholars combine practice with in-depth theoretical
discussions, highlighting critical future avenues of research in
the field. Real estate, planning and economics scholars will find
this to be an important read, particularly with the blend of
conceptual and empirical perspectives. Real estate practitioners
and businesses will also find the practical guidance and discussion
of real-life challenges in the book helpful.
Within the past decade, marketing has experienced three major
challenges: generation gap, prosperity polarization, and digital
divide. The disconnect between older corporate executives and their
younger managers and customers has proven to be a significant
challenge. Digitalization brings fear of the unknown with the
threats of job loss and privacy concerns. However, it also brings
the promise of exponential growth and better living for humanity.
Businesses must break the divide to ensure that technological
advancement will move forward and not be welcomed with resentment.
