Elements of the sustainability in the bioeconomy and its relationship with administrative theories

Abstract

The objective of this research work was to analyze and distinguish the foundations of sustainability present in the bioeconomy and, in turn, how these practices are related to administrative theories and, at the same time, with organizational management. 62 scientific publications and 4 technical publications were explored. As a result, it was described that sustainability is immersed within the bioeconomy through the Triple Balance Model that integrate the economic, ecological and social dimensions, the Triple Helix Model by promoting alliances between the governmental, academic and private sectors, as well as statutes such as the UN Sustainable Development Goals, or Corporate Social Responsibility.  Likewise, the sustainability of the bioeconomy is related to the administrative theories that promote, inside the organizational entities, the design of policies and operations attached to the bioeconomy, for example, good practices that contribute to the preservation of the wildlife, adequacy of clean energy sources, integral growth of communities, as well as the reincorporation of biomass into value chains.
