The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) represent the leading
governance frame with which the international community tries to
address complex interconnected global issues. The SDGs were adopted
in 2015 by all 193 UN member states and were also quickly embraced
by most Multinational Enterprises (MNEs), International NGOs and
leading business schools. But progress has proved slow. In 2020,
the United Nations announced a ’decade of action’ to speed-up
progress in the area. To what extent and under what circumstances
can MNEs help in this effort: revitalize the SDGs and rescue the
beneficial effects of globalization? Volume 17 in the series
Progress in International Business Research argues that the SDGs
can be considered the only relevant agenda for progress in the
years to come. This makes it all the more important to critically
consider the role played by MNEs, as well as explore the way IB
scholarship can help MNEs to ‘walk the talk’ on the complex
issues that affect the sustainable development – thereby
leveraging the future shape of ‘globalization’. The book
contains contributions by established as well as young scholars and
is intended to stimulate present and future research, create new
forms of conceptualizations and provide first evidence of more
focused empirical research on the topic of MNEs and the SDGs.
