Abstract

The sixth and last chapter of this book offers readers some knowledge about the state of the art in sustainable luxury research. Since such a research stream is quite broad to be effectively investigated in a book chapter, we had to choose those topics that might be considered as particularly “hot” and relevant in today’s academic and managerial debate. In particular, we chose to shed light on research insights into the following areas: (1) sustainability and innovation, (2) CSR, (3) communication, and (4) cultural differences.
