This study investigated the impact of sustainable perceived value (SPV) on fashion consumers. The results revealed that SPV significantly affects customer satisfaction, loyalty, and the positive relationship between satisfaction and loyalty were confirmed, implicating SPV as a valid approach in measuring consumption value of sustainable fashion products.

Increasingly, companies’ attempts to become more sustainable are framed in terms of transitioning towards sustainable business models (SBMs), whereby central logic of how the company offers value to customers is challenged (Yang & Evans, 2019). This transition requires companies to rethink the way value and resource consumption are coupled in their operations (Pieroni et al., 2019), as well as consider different ways of connecting with customer needs (Laukkanen & Tura, 2020).

The research examines the influence of emotions on tourists’ visit intention towards sustainable tourism and evaluation by using the application of an electroencephalogram (EEG). This method can give objective information about tourist emotion reactions towards sustainable tourism experiences that will drive tourists’ visit intention. The main research objective was to observe and evaluate consumer’s brain activity in different brain regions while they were being exposed by sustainable tourism experiences as stimuli. The participants consists of 30 local and foreign tourist, have normal vision, right-handed, and are considered as potential visitors of sustainable tourism destination. The participant’s brain activity was collected using neuroheadset (EEG) with an international 10/20 system. Analyzing of tourists’ emotions may help marketers to build their customer's experience and reach their target markets more effectively and develop strategies to ensure that the consumer’s attracted.

The attitude-behavior gap and intention-behavior gap has not been research extensively. The purpose of this study is to provide a review of moderating or mediating factors on the relationship between intention or attitude and behavior of sustainable tourism. Intention was defined as the degree of a human being’s resolve to perform a certain action. The construct ‘Intention” has been used widely in some theories like the Theory of Planned Behavior. Researchers usually include the intention construct into their research framework to explain the theoretical mechanism. Sustainable or ecological tourism education has been implemented for years and empirical evidence provides us that almost all tourists are alerted to the importance of sustainability. There is a great challenge that tourists’ behavior might not concur with their intention. Policymakers and marketers really want to know the real factors affecting the association between the intention and behavior of sustainable tourism. Tourists’ purchase intention is a rational process and is affected by safety. Tourist behavior is associated with price and service environment which is a mixture of rational and emotional considerations.

This study will explore the paradoxical tension influencer face when promoting sustainable luxury leisure activities for sponsoring brands. Social media influencers play a pivotal role in this advocacy as luxury consumers are inspired to associate themselves with sophisticated social values, superior social status, or differentiate themselves from others with lower esteem. However, the commodification of their influence to stimulate consumption amongst their audience and followers creates paradoxical tensions between their brand performance, economic incentives, and ethical socio-ecological outcomes. Despite numerous studies have been undertaken to examine the role of influencers in sustainable luxury tourism, there is still a need for understanding of how influencers negotiate the paradoxical tensions arising from (a) sustainability and luxury; (b) instrumental goals and personal brand identity. Data sources for this study include influencer interviews and social media contents created by the influencers, such as video, blog posts and tweets.

In this article, we address this shortcoming by exploring the concept of AI-based sustainable service—an offering that embeds artificial intelligence in ways that meet the needs of current consumers by contributing to socio-economic equalities and conserving the natural environment.

We enjoy various forms of leisure every day. Human play culture continues to change according to the development of technology and social environment. In line with the changing society, humans experience socialization, and the market continues to change in response to human new ways of life.

Plastic pollution is one of the biggest environmental problems in the world. In modern society, the consumption of single-use plastics in the food service industry has increased along with the increase in food-away-from-home. The COVID-19 pandemic has attacked the consumption of single-use plastic in the restaurant industry. During the COVID-19 pandemic, especially the US has retracted the related laws and policies regarding using single-use plastic for fast food and carry-out food, and customers have increased their use of single-use plastic for fast food and carry-out food due to worries about hygiene. Even though sustainability has been a novel topic in hospitality literature, a majority of studies have focused on the consumers’ perception, attitude, or behavioral willingness toward sustainability. To fill this gap in research, finding an effective way to influence consumers’ behavioral change becomes important and necessary.

In the current era of sustainable development, economic, social, and environmental changes are interrelated, and social inclusion and environmental sustainability are our shared goals. In response, social and environmental values have become important considerations for the success of an enterprise, placing an increased emphasis on the interests of all stakeholders. This trend in the governance of enterprise fueled the emergence of a new organizational form: the certified B Corporation (B Corp), a social enterprise certified by B Lab as an enterprise that creates value for non-shareholding stakeholders, including employees, customers, the local community, and the environment. With their positive social and environmental impacts, B Corps have become increasingly recognized as instrumental in the achievement of the UN Sustainable Development Goals, and literature on B Corps has increased. However, empirical research on the role of B Corps is still lacking.

Sustainability rears its head in the current online marketing and virtual store -research. Sustainability considerations involve pro-environmental-, social- and economic values as well as future generations and continuous innovation (Hanss and Böhm, 2012). Central in the sustainability research is sustainable consumer behavior, which has been found to be subject of intensions varying across different types of consumers, issues, and product categories (O’Rourke and Ringer, 2016). Determining consumers’ general egoistic, altruistic and biospheric values (e.g., De Groot and Steg 2008; Steg et al., 2014) have resulted quite complex and not always so generalizable structural models for sustainable behavior. While value -research has been dominant in determining the sustainability intensions and eventual behavior, there are relatively little solid theories and understating about different psychological processes behind sustainable behavior. Furthermore, the consideration of multiple sustainable consumer behavior outcomes seems to be limited, which can also hamper the development of models and theories (see e.g., Hulland and Houston 2021).

Sustainability issue has received growing attention from various stakeholders. To engage more people to participate in sustainable actions, the United Nations has promoted #actnow campaign since 2019. Among various sustainability initiatives and approaches, the UN’s #actnow campaign focuses on food and fashion sustainability since these two industries encompass various sustainability issues from production and post-consumption. By analyzing Twitter's big data, the study findings demonstrate that negative sentiment messages are powerful in driving the public’s engagement in social media message dissemination. The findings suggest that practitioners may use assertive and strong voice messages to lead consumers’ participation in sustainable message dissemination.

The tourism industry specifically experienced distinct failing revenues and was an economic sector among those most rigorously influenced by the pandemic. In the gradual recovery period after the pandemic, the technology implementation in travel has been a great achievement for travel companies. This study is based on a systematic literature review to examine the ability of Virtual Reality (VR) and Geographic information systems (GIS) to serve as a facilitator of sustainable tourism development goals. The potential impact of VR and GIS within tourism will bolster the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and will be conceptualized. The use of these technologies in connection to the SDGs can associate with SDG No. 8, SDG No.9, SDG No.11, and SDG No. 13, which are related to "decent work and economic growth", "industry, innovation, and infrastructure", "sustainable cities and communities", and "climate action."

In this study, sustainable utilization plans were proposed by reviewing the current status and problems of water infrastructure, focusing on water supply and sewage system in Chungcheongnam-do. Due to the regional characteristics of the rural areas in Chungcheongnam-do which has a very low urbanization rate, there is a difference in the level of water welfare services between local governments. Compared to other governments, there are relatively many small water facilities, resulting in a service imbalance in terms of tap water safety. In addition, Chungcheongnam-do has a structure that is very vulnerable to water security to cope with climate change and drought due to its high dependence on wide-area water supply. Therefore, it should be considered in consideration of population reduction and local extinction due to low birth rate and aging population. Rural areas should clearly establish marginal areas for the supply of water and sewage, and implement regional customized water and sewage projects in consideration of local extinction. Water supply projects should be implemented in a distributed water supply method using various water sources. In order to respond to climate change and establish water security, a distributed water supply system should be established through a multi-source water loop system using various water sources. Sewage projects should be establish public sewage treatment facilities in consideration of the priorities of each local government, focusing on local governments with low sewage treatment population rates. In consideration of regional characteristics, it is necessary to consider the installation of private sewage treatment facilities or nature-friendly treatment facilities such as soil infiltration and artificial wetlands. An integrated management system using Internet of Things(IOT) or Information and Communications Technology(ICT) should be established and operated to improve the operation and management efficiency of small-scale water supply and sewage facilities.

본 연구는 사람과 조직 그리고 이들을 둘러싼 환경 내에 존재하는 가치 있고 우수한 요인을 협력 기반의 질문을 통해 찾아 개발하고 발전시키는 변화의 방법인 Appreciative Inquiry(긍정적 가치탐색)를 활용하여 사교육기관의 지속가능경영 연구의 방향과 과제에 대한 체계적 문헌고찰을 목적으로 하였다. 이를 위해 긍정적 가치탐색 방법이 소개된 1986년 이후 의 국내외 문헌을 웹 기반 전자데이터베이스를 활용하여 총 321건(국외 298편, 국내 23편)을 검토하고 분석하였다. 지속 가능한 사교육기관의 교육 경영을 위해서는 문제 중심의 접근법이 아닌 가치와 강점 중심의 접근법을 활용할 필요가 있 다. 사교육기관의 지속 가능한 변화와 발전을 위한 가치 중심적 접근과 연구의 중심에는 긍정적 가치탐색이 있다. 사교 육기관은 긍정적 핵심 가치탐색과 활용을 통해 이상적인 교육 경영 모델을 수립하고, 이해관계자들의 의미요소를 파악하 여 소통방안을 마련하며, 기관과 기관 종사자들의 강점과 장점 및 우수요인과 성공 경험을 통해 발전 전략을 세우고, 기 관의 잠재력 활용과 적극적인 구성원들의 참여를 통한 효용성 있는 협력체계를 구성해 나가야 한다.

본 연구는 최근 전 세계적인 도시연합체를 통한 지역발전 전략은 획일 적이고 경직된 일방적 발전 형태가 아닌 다양한 양상의 발전을 추구할 수 있다는 점에서 하나의 거대한 도시에 대한 집중이나 인위적인 하향식 정치적 결합이 아닌 기능적으로 연계된 도시연합체 형성이 도시연합의 발전을 위한 대안이 될 수 있음을 주장한다. 따라서 본 연구는 석탄 철 강 지역으로 일자리를 찾아 모여든 루르 지역이 초기 독일의 국가 성장 에 일조했으나 실업과 지역 산업의 사양 산업화로 인한 쇠퇴를 경험했던 독일의 도시 지역연합 메트로폴 루르가 위기를 극복하고 새롭게 산업전 환을 성공적으로 완수하게 된 요인을 도시발전의 정치적 요인인 거버넌 스를 통해 분석했다. 이를 통해 한국적인 광역 단위의 메가시티 형성 전 략은 단순히 특정 도시들의 물리적 결합을 통한 양적 발전이 아닌 다양 한 요인을 고려한 기능적 결합을 통한 도시 지역연합으로의 성장 가능성 을 탐색할 필요가 있음을 강조한다.

수도권 중심의 국가발전 전략이 한계에 다다른 가운데, 주요국들은 지 방을 발전시키기 위한 다양한 전략이 제시되어 왔다. 2000년대 이후 유 럽, 일본 등 주요국들은 광역경제권 형성을 통한 지방 대도시권 발전방 향의 전략을 채택해 온 가운데, 최근 한국에서도 부울경 지역연합이 출 범한 경험이 있다. 본 논문에서는 프랑스의 지방분권 개혁 및 문제점, 과 제에 관하여 고찰하였다. 특히 본고에서는 프랑스의 광역경제권 형성 과 정을 통해 부·울·경 메가시티 전략에 대한 시사점을 얻고자 하였다. 1970년대 중앙집권적 행정체제로는 경제발전과 지역협력 대응에의 한계 가 있음을 직시한 프랑스는 지방분권을 추진해 왔다. 지방분권 추진에 많은 어려움을 겪어 왔던 프랑스 정부는 2012년 이후 최근까지 지방분 권의 효율성과 민주주의의 조화를 위한 분권발전 정책을 제시해 왔다. 프랑스는 지방분권 추진 과정에서 지역 광역화와 생활권의 이격에서 발 생하는 문제점들을 해결하기 위해, 도시지역계획(PLU), 코뮌 토지이용구 분도(CC), 국토의 일관성 계획(SCOT) 등을 제시하였다.
