The Natural Environmental Strategies of International Firms: Old Controversies and New Evidence on Performance and Disclosure (2016, background): “Even when regulations are weak or uncertain, these companies do not want activists to harm their image (Bondy & Starkey, 2014; Surroca, Tribo, & Zahra, 2013); thus, they choose to regulate themselves (Christmann & Taylor, 2002, 2006; Delmas & Montes-Sancho, 2011; King & Lenox, 2000).”

Firm self-regulation through international certifiable standards: determinants of symbolic versus substantive implementation (2006, background): “Thus, this governance mechanism is based on the assumption that firms will voluntarily adopt these standards because it is good for business – because customers prefer to purchase products from certified suppliers (Cashore, 2002; Christmann & Taylor, 2002; Florini, 2003).”

A Descriptive Analysis of Environmental Disclosure: A Longitudinal Study of French Companies (2014, background): “In contrast, other academic research presents nonsequential environmental strategies, arguing that companies can choose their environmental commitments and follow several approaches at once with respect to the different environmental issues they are facing (Christmann and Taylor 2002; Reinhardt 1999”
The concept of environmental performance and its measurement in empirical studies (2011, unknown): “Even if third party audits based on publicly available guidelines guarantee some degree of objectivity, they do not specify the improvement exactly (Christmann and Taylor 2001).”
Cross-Sector Alliance Learning and Effectiveness of Voluntary Codes of Corporate Social Responsibility (2006, background): “…societal criticism of the impact of globalization on the environment, human rights violations, and substandard labor practices in host countries have led multinationals to participate in a variety of voluntary standards to self-regulate their social conduct (Christmann and Taylor 2002; Radin 2004).”
