Integrating management and sustainability literature: Comment on the paper by Gonçalves et al.

This commentary explores the integration of management and sustainability literature, using the work of Gonçalves et al. (2024) as a starting point. I situate their work within the broader context of literature that connects the management and sustainability fields, tracing historical developments and diverse perspectives. Key areas for further exploration include the fields' different levels of analysis, the commensurability of theoretical foundations, the balance between theoretical and applied research and the importance of interdisciplinary, transdisciplinary and systems approaches in advancing sustainability research and practice. The commentary serves as a starting point for further research aimed at supporting the transformative changes needed for a more sustainable society.
