| Abstract: | This article suggests that commitment to the Dominant Social Paradigms (DPS) in Western societies, which includes support for such ideologies as free entreprise, private property rights, economic individualism, and unlimited economic growth, poses a threat to progress in imposing greater standards of corporate environmental accountability. It is shown that commitment to the DSP is negatively correlated with support for the New Ecological Paradigm (NEP) and support for corporate environmental accountability. NEP is positively correlated with support for corporate environmental accountability. |
