• Responsible Innovation and the Innovation of Responsibility: Governing Sustainable Development in a Globalized World (2015, neutral): “The discussion centers on the question of whether investing in such innovations needs to ‘pay’; in other words, of whether organizations should—and do—invest in social and ecological innovations only for instrumental economic reasons or also for other, non-financial reasons (Gao and Bansal 2013; Mar”
• Chain liability in multitier supply chains? Responsibility attributions for unsustainable supplier behavior (2014, background): “, Elkington, 2004), though for this study, we primarily focus on the environmental dimension, which ultimately affects human well-being (Gao and Bansal, 2013).”
• Converging Winds: Logic Hybridization in the Colorado Wind Energy Field (2016, positive): “…research has theorized logics that reconcile economizing and ecologizing (Frederick, 1995; Gladwin et al., 1995) or shown such a logic operating at the organizational level (Gao & Bansal, 2013), this study reveals the hybridization processes through which such logics are constructed within a field.”

• Corporate Governance and Executive Compensation for Corporate Social Responsibility (2015, neutral): “(2006) and Gao and Bansal (2012) provide overviews of the major theoretical perspectives regarding CSR and financial performance.”
