<p><em>Managing Organizations for Sustainable Development in Emerging Countries</em> focuses on the main challenges and opportunities of managing firms and emerging economies in the light of sustainable development.

These questions are relevant for government industry and urban sustainability. However in the modern literature that discusses organizational management for sustainable development few studies focus on the reality of organizations from emerging countries.
