Means versus Ends in Opaque Institutional Fields: Trading off Compliance and Achievement in Sustainability Standard Adoption (2014, background): “…the wages and working conditions of many workers in developed countries (Schneiberg & Lounsbury, 2008), may be unable to form a countervailing power against influential, footloose (foreign) investors (Van Tulder & Van der Zwart, 2006), especially in developing countries (Graham & Woods, 2007).”
Outsourcing governance: states and the politics of a ‘global value chain world’ (2017, background): “…be moves towards ‘legally mandated private standards’ (Henson and Humphrey 2010), but only moves towards mandatory disclosure – a model which in previous incarnations has an undistinguished record of commanding compliance with its requirements in the US and elsewhere (Graham and Woods 2006: 878).”
‘Black Economic Empowerment’, Business and the State in South Africa (2007, background): “…transfer of social and environmental concerns from public regulation to self-regulation, including private or semi-private certification and labelling schemes (see, among many others, Blowfield and Frynas, 2005; Giovannucci and Ponte, 2005; Graham and Woods, 2006; Ponte and Gibbon, 2005).”
Corporate Social Responsibility in Challenging and Non-enabling Institutional Contexts: Do Institutional Voids matter? (2014, unknown): “As could be imagined, one of the challenges of most weak institutional contexts is the enforcement of laws and regulations (Graham and Woods 2006; Brown and Woods 2007)—a situation which often leads to governance void and failure.”
