The Twin Digital and Green Transition

The digital and green transitions are reshaping our world. But how do they interact, and what do they mean for consumers, businesses and governments? This book introduces the key themes of the digital and green transition and explains why and how they matter. Leading international scholars across disciplines argue that to understand the twin transition, inter- and multi-disciplinary approaches are needed, whereby conceptual and empirical insights must be integrated.

Each chapter provides practical, evidence-based insights into the processes and developments that underlie the twin transition. The book maps these changes within everyday life, business strategy and government action, explaining why working across sectors and disciplines is key to managing the twin transition effectively. Contributors adopt a mixed-methods approach, analysing survey data, case studies and qualitative content, as well as structural equation and simulation models. This book lays the groundwork for future study and policy reflection, highlighting the importance of inclusive, evidence-based strategies for sustainable, equitable and effective digital and green transitions.

The Twin Digital and Green Transition is a necessary resource for scholars and students of environmental policy, digital transformation, sustainability studies, innovation management and governance. It is also highly beneficial for policymakers, public sector leaders, business practitioners and consultants.
