Circular Economy Contributions to the Tourism Sector: A Critical Literature Review (2020, background): “Circular Economy as a new economic model has its origins in Environmental Economics, whose aim is the integration of science into sustainability and sustainable development [32].”
Integrating the green economy, circular economy and bioeconomy in a strategic sustainability framework (2021, background): “Furthermore, while perpetual loops may be desirable, there are technical, economic and ultimately physical limitations (Andersen, 2007).”
Exploring institutional drivers and barriers of the circular economy: A cross-regional comparison of China, the US, and Europe (2017, background): “, the EC Working Package, China’s CE Promotion Law), and companies (Ellen MacArthur Foundation, 2016) as an alternative to the prevailing model of economic development: the so-called “linear economy” (Andersen, 2007), otherwise known as the “take, make and dispose” model (Ness, 2008).”
Circular economy for the built environment: A research framework (2017, background): “not be promoted (Andersen, 2007). The views of Huamao and Fengqi (2007) are also anthropocentric, considering as the ultimate goal the realisation of human beings’ sustainable development.”
Sharing versus collaborative economy: how to align ICT developments and the SDGs in tourism?

Progress Toward a Circular Economy in China (2011, background): “We agree with Andersen (2007) that the idea of the circular economy is still largely confined to consideration of physical flows, and the economic drivers (and inhibitors) of eco-industrial initiatives have yet to receive sufficient attention.”
Unlocking circular business: A framework of barriers and drivers (2019, background): “From the economic perspective, CE is seen to provide opportunities for cost savings, e.g. by reducing waste and energy costs (Andersen, 2007; Esposito et al., 2015; Ghisellini et al., 2016; Liu and Bai, 2014; Murray et al., 2015; Pitt and Heinemeyer, 2015; Rizos et al., 2015).”
