![]() Furthermore, in many circumstances, the evolutionary research has not been developed based on evidence and therefore green growth is considered another label for sustainable development. There is an improved increment in the literature that recognizes the emergence of this concept in history, but the exposure to green growth has been limited to the theoretical perspective, generally as another terminology for sustainable development. This new concept “looks for promoting economic growth and development while balancing concerns about environmental degradation with the need for long-term economic growth” (p. This new approach involves “fostering economic growth and development while ensuring that natural assets continue to provide the resources and environmental services on which our well-being relies”. Against this backdrop, one of the significant and meaningful current debates in the sustainable development paradigm has materialized as “green growth”. 7) stating that the “failure of critical climate negotiations has indicated that theories of sustainable development have not yet been effectively implemented in practical policies”. Therefore, international agreements and discussions have started to balance economic growth with the depletion of natural resources (p. Furthermore, repeated failures in other international policies have made it necessary to seek a new growth and development paradigm. In the face of global challenges such as climate change, rising greenhouse gas emissions, and environmental pollution, countries have begun to search for a suitable development strategy. The proposed research framework and implementation strategy also identifies new avenues for future research and practices in the field of sustainable development, making it one of the study’s key contributions to the literature. The findings of this study highlight the significant role of interdisciplinary research, as well both bottom-up and top-down initiatives, on enabling the transition to green growth. We examine the transformation, differential definitions, and critical dimensions of green growth in relation to particular case studies taken from China and South Korea and frame them for future sustainable studies. ![]() Therefore, this study uses Foucault’s governmentality lens to view green growth as a technique of government, seeking an environmentally focused eco-governmentality. The lack of connection between green growth and good governance-known as environmental governance-is a crucial gap in practical adoption. Furthermore, current green growth research tends to focus on the country level, such as the Millennium Development Goals and sustainable development indices, which risks ignoring the additional impacts on micro industrial economies. Yet, much of the green growth research has failed to address the real extent of interconnections and complexity of the relationship between governance and economic, social, and environmental structures. The new concept of “green growth” appears to be an economic growth model, which balances environment sustainability and fostering of economic growth. ![]()
