"(...) Cada vez mais os consumidores se preocupam em adquirir produtos e serviços éticos, ou seja, que foram produzidos, anunciados e comercializados a partir dos princípios expostos no Pacto Global. Os produtos e serviços, na nova percepção dos consumidores, levam junto o contexto da sua linha de produção e comercialização. O livro, agora apresentado, enfrenta estes diversos problemas complexos, com análises fundamentadas e, muitas vezes, com sugestões para aprimoramento do próprio sistema. É a ciência cumprindo seu papel de trazer reflexões no intuito de melhorar as relações humanas. São 17 artigos que dão um destaque ao ESG no contexto do Direito das Relações de Consumo. Por óbvio, pela própria formação dos diversos autores – componentes do Comitê de Relações de Consumo do IBRAC (Instituto Brasileiro de Estudos de Concorrência, Consumo e Comércio Internacional) – os artigos enfrentam o universo das responsabilidades empresariais no contexto de uma sociedade de consumo.

Em um mundo em constante evolução tecnológica, as implicações da Inteligência Artificial (IA) nas relações de consumo se tornam um foco de crescente interesse e importante debate. Este livro, idealizado pelo IBRAC – Instituto Brasileiro de Estudos de Concorrência, Consumo e Comércio Internacional, reúne uma série de ensaios e análises que abordam os desafios e oportunidades desta intersecção entre a IA e o Direito do Consumidor. Desde os conceitos iniciais e o estágio atual de utilização da IA no Brasil e no mundo, passando pela regulamentação tanto no cenário nacional quanto internacional, o livro explora amplamente as oportunidades e riscos desse universo, como a responsabilidade civil ligada aos sistemas de IA, a aplicação das regras já em vigência do Código de Defesa do Consumidor nesse contexto, as questões de governança e até mesmo como a IA pode auxiliar na definição e implementação de políticas públicas relacionadas ao direito do consumidor.

Business sustainability has advanced from greenwashing and branding to being a business imperative. Stakeholders, including shareholders, demand, regulators require, and companies now need to report their sustainability performance. No longer is this a choice for businesses. A decade ago, fewer than 50 companies released sustainability reports, and now more 8,000 global public companies disclose sustainability performance information on some or all five economic, governance, social, ethical, and environmental (EGSEE) dimensions of sustainability performance, and this trend is expected to continue. Indeed, more than 6,000 European public companies would be required to disclose their environmental, social, governance and diversity information for their 2017 reporting year. However, the proper determination of sustainability performance, accurate and reliable reporting and independent assurance of sustainability information remain major challenges for organizations of all types and sizes. Through reading this book, you will: Identify sustainability strategies to create innovation in new products, services, energy-efficiency, environmental facilities and green initiatives. Understand the role and responsibilities of all participants in the corporate reporting process, including directors, officers, internal auditors, external auditors, legal counsel, and investors. See ways to improve public trust, investor confidence, business reputation, employee satisfaction, corporate culture, social responsibility and environmental performance. Learn all five economic, governance, social, ethical and environmental (EGSEE) dimensions of sustainability performance separately and their integrated and interactive effects on achieving the goal of creating sustainable value for all stakeholders, including shareholders. Learn how to adopt best practices in sustainability development and performance, and deliver effective integrated sustainability reporting and assurance.

A substantially revised and updated new edition of the leading text on business and government, with new material reflecting recent theoretical and methodological advances; includes further coverage of the Microsoft antitrust case, the deregulation of telecommunications and electric power, and new environmental regulations. This new edition of the leading text on business and government focuses on the insights economic reasoning can provide in analyzing regulatory and antitrust issues. Departing from the traditional emphasis on institutions, Economics of Regulation and Antitrust asks how economic theory and empirical analyses can illuminate the character of market operation and the role for government action and brings new developments in theory and empirical methodology to bear on these questions. The fourth edition has been substantially revised and updated throughout, with new material added and extended discussion of many topics. Part I, on antitrust, has been given a major revision to reflect advances in economic theory and recent antitrust cases, including the case against Microsoft and the Supreme Court's Kodak decision. Part II, on economic regulation, updates its treatment of the restructuring and deregulation of the telecommunications and electric power industries, and includes an analysis of what went wrong in the California energy market in 2000 and 2001. Part III, on social regulation, now includes increased discussion of risk-risk analysis and extensive changes to its discussion of environmental regulation. The many case studies included provide students not only pertinent insights for today but also the economic tools to analyze the implications of regulations and antitrust policies in the future.The book is suitable for use in a wide range of courses in business, law, and public policy, for undergraduates as well at the graduate level. The structure of the book allows instructors to combine the chapters in various ways according to their needs. Presentation of more advanced material is self-contained. Each chapter concludes with questions and problems.
