Abstract | The disciplines of sustainability and national culture are both well established complex areas of study. It is only relatively recently that researchers have started to study the manner in which cultural characteristics influence behaviours that contribute to a nations activities that can lead to a reduction of their environmental burden. Most initial research undertaken was positivist in nature, relying on statistical correlation between behaviours and frameworks developed by Hofstede or the GLOBE project (Caprar and Neville, 2012). However, Rogge, Dessein, and Verhoeve (2013) argue that research into subjects as complex as this should commence with work of a more exploratory nature. This research involved the development of four case studies with the intention of validating the findings of prior research. |
