Purpose – Beginning with a multitude of differing definitions and theories of CSR and sustainability, an analysis of the effects and impacts of the social domain to remain an untapped resource to strengthen and merge the practice of sustainable development. The paper aims to discuss these issues. Design/methodology/approach – Utilizing a systematic review of literature between 1977 and 2013 about CSR and sustainability definitions and theories to reveal knowledge fragmentation in the use of the social domain and its implications within sustainable development. Findings – Identifies the gaps of the social domain in sustainable development and raises awareness to advance sustainable development beyond current sustainable development strategies, initiatives and practices. The pertinent publications from the inclusion and exclusion criteria in the systematic literature review were analyzed to determine how the social domain is used and interpreted in CSR and sustainability. Based upon the findings, four themes represent the social domain as socio-economics, stakeholders, societal well-being and social sustainability with suggestions for further research. Research limitations/implications – The systematic literature review searched one academic search engine and focussed on journals and books written in English. Originality/value – The contribution of the paper highlights, first, how an underdeveloped social domain can contribute toward multiple meanings of sustainable development and the social domain’s untapped capacity to develop a clearer standard definition of sustainable development and second, the potential to advance competitive advantage for corporations and governments.

The Impact

Studies of human capital at the present stage of human development are extremely relevant, since at present human capital is steadily transforming from a factor of economic development into a target for its sustainable development. The paper proposes the basic tool i.e. a new mathematical model for assessing the impact of human capital on social well-being and development of Russian society. It uses the interdependencies among the criteria of human capital and general development. The tool proposed in paper will be powerful for improving and increasing the quality of human capital, improving the social welfare of society, bringing the most effective innovative solutions to the economy. The Human Capital can be assessed in particular by publications, proceedings, and other types of knowledge representation on the websites. And also all this materials can be automatically placed in other databases, including in Elibrary which can also be a parameter of a model. The assessments of the impact of human capital on social well-being and the development of regions and countries can be obtained automatically on-line.

It is widely recognized that achieving a highly productive economy in the context of sustainable development is one of the urgent tasks of every country. This article identifies the relationship between productive employment and inclusive development. According to the concept of inclusive growth, the well-being of society is a multidimensional concept, the level of which should not be measured only by real GDP and sustainable growth rates of material income of the population. Over time, the inclusive growth index will dominate the system of indicators for assessing economic development of countries, as it includes not only the economic component of sustainable development, but also the social and environmental environment.

Sustainable development and sustainability encompass a strong focus on the advancement of sustainable societies, social sustainability, and overall well-being of people both now and in the future. These goals also highlight sustainable social/society–environment relationships and interfaces to promote sustainable development of both people and the planet. The promotion of social sustainability requires leadership, management, and assessment by organizations and people. This study explored social sustainability handprints from the perspective of handprint and life cycle thinking and approaches using qualitative research approaches. It addressed a clear gap in research and aimed at exploring, discovering, analyzing and synthetizing the main implications of these frameworks for the creation and assessment of the social sustainability handprint development. It was recognized that there are multiple ways to create social sustainability handprints, such as positive changes, actions, innovations, and impacts. The same applies to assessments that can be based on, for example, handprint and life cycle thinking and approaches, sustainability management, assessment and indicators, and sustainability science. The findings highlight the broadness and diversity of approaches, opportunities, and possibilities related to both the creation and assessment of social sustainability handprints. Additionally, they suggest that particular focus is needed, for example, on comprehensive approaches that take into account specific contexts, locations, cultures, scales, conditions, characteristics, perspectives, and stakeholders.

Territorial belonging and territorial attractiveness are elements of strategic relevance for development at various levels. Therefore, territorial identity is relevant for building the social capital so useful during the processes of development and territorial planning. The concern about territorial identity and development is part of the same trend that occurred in the academic and political environment after the 1990s, when it became obvious that there was a strong connection between these and environmental, social and economic well-being. This special issue hosts the results of original empirical and theoretical scientific research on territorial identity and its relation to sustainable development.

Ensuring a stable improvement in the quality and standard of living of the rural population allows preserving the social and economic potential of rural areas. Effective management can ensure the implementation of social control and development of rural areas, the preservation of ecology, which ultimately contributes to the preservation of sustainable development of agricultural territories. The purpose of the study: To determine the directions and effective level of increasing the production of agricultural and livestock products aimed at preserving the sustainable development of agricultural territories. A correlation and regression analysis was carried out in the study to determine the promising directions of the northern districts of the Omsk region (Russia) to increase the effectiveness of strategic planning for the sustainable development of agricultural territories. Sustainable development of the regions, according to the authors, is impossible without increasing the level of well-being, therefore, the authors identified such areas for development as the cultivation of fodder crops, the cultivation of livestock and poultry (for slaughter), the cultivation of poultry for meat and the production of honey. The authors concluded that it is necessary to increase the production volumes of the selected promising areas for the development of agriculture by at least 5% to 13% per year, depending on the direction. There will be an increase in profit only at these values, which is one of the important factors contributing to the sustainable development of the areas allocated for research.

The impact of cruise tourism on key stakeholders determines further development of the cruise industry on a destination, imposing an obligation to systematically and continuously monitor stakeholders’ perceptions and attitudes. During 2019, primary research was conducted to examine two keys components of the cruise activity at the destination: the impact of cruise tourism on the local population and stakeholders performing business activities in the port of Split. Two individual groups of survey questionnaires were created. Special attention was given to the social, economic, and environmental impacts of cruise tourism, respecting the principles of sustainable development. These values were estimated based on the Likert scale. The local population considers the economic and social effects of cruise tourism as exceedingly positive and is more prepared for tolerance and resilience to achieve the expected well-being. Local business stakeholders are more restrained and record a minimal increase in income and employment related to the cruise activity. Limited perception and knowledge on sustainable development in the port of Split are characteristic of both groups of respondents.

In “Integrating Social and Economic Development: Rationale, Models, and Limitations,” multiple levels of social and economic development are examined. In most nations, economic development is not well connected to social development, especially social welfare and social protections. This chapter explores more progressive development that offsets distorted development and its harms. Special attention is devoted to the well-being of the social entrepreneur and ecosystems of support. Integrative approaches are addressed, including conceptual frames, the leadership of the United Nations and its Sustainable Development Goals, and some of the academic disciplines that can contribute to more integrative thinking, approaches, policies, and research. Mechanisms for integration are discussed, along with attention to growth that promotes more inclusive economies.
