Sustainable production and consumption systems—cooperation for change: assessing and simulating the willingness of the firm to adopt/develop cleaner technologies. The case of the In-Bond industry in northern Mexico

摘要: Abstract Over the last decade, literature on “greening” of industry and environmental policy has provided numerous important insights into determinants firm’s innovative behaviour in cleaner technologies. However, this still lacks empirically tested theoretical models. This paper contributes to fill gap proposing a definitional system that enables testing hypotheses dependence between willingness innovate technologies its determinants, explore conditions under which firms’ could be fostered. Regression simulation outcomes indicate, against general wisdom, stringent regulation without consideration dynamics technical change, economic risk perceptions part firms would play promotion innovation production.
