Stakeholders, innovative business models for the circular economy and sustainable performance of firms in an emerging economy facing institutional voids
Abstract
The literature on the diffusion of the circular economy (CE) rarely provides empirical evidence from emerging economies that face institutional voids and sustainability paradoxes. In contrast, drawing on stakeholder theory, in this paper we test a research framework capable of capturing the imbricated and complex relations among stakeholder pressure, barriers to and motivators of the CE, circular business models, and firms' sustainable performance. Survey-based primary data was gathered from Brazilian industrial companies which lack regulatory clarity regarding the implementation of a CE. Our research results comprise both expected and unexpected outcomes: (i) differing from other countries, the relevance of regulatory stakeholders in Brazil could not be fully confirmed, adding complexity to the topic; (ii) unexpectedly, in this research, company owners/shareholders were the most salient stakeholders; (iii) stakeholders do indeed exert influence on how firms deal with barriers to and motivators of a CE; (iv) we found that internal barriers and internal motivators were perceived as more intense than external ones, which may create organizational tensions; (v) the adoption of a CE by firms tends to improve their sustainable performance; (vi) the previous possession of ISO 14001 and ISO 9001 certifications may control the way companies perceive the benefits of a CE.

“Most studies dealing with the important topic of stakeholder collaboration for a CE predominantly examine this subject by applying a firm-level or market-level perspective (e.g., Castro-Lopez et al., 2023; de Sousa Jabbour et al., 2022; Jabbour et al., 2020; Pinheiro et al., 2018, 2022).”

“Jabbour et al. (2020) provide and test a research framework that primarily focuses on the firm and market levels and effectively captures the imbricated and complex relations among stakeholder pressure, barriers to and motivators of the CE, circular business models, and firms' sustainable performance.”

“Consequently, it appears that both studies bypass the discussion on how stakeholders can effectively work together to carry out functional governance for guiding a systemic CE transition.”

In the citing paper
“Similarly, Jabbour et al. (2020) examine different stakeholder types but stress that stakeholders' role is primarily to exert pressure rather than actively collaborating to collectively engage in (innovative) governance.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
