Köp båda 2 för 786 kr'This book is a masterful round up of 30 years of sustainable development thinking by some of the topic's most renowned and deep thinkers. The authors expose the progress made in the last 30 years, but also many gaps, flaws and more dangerous trends accompanying our times. Sustainable development now involves more forward and critical ideas, such as de-growth, critiques of fossil capitalism, insistence on equity and redistribution, moving towards ethics of care and eco-social policies focused on satisfying human needs within planetary boundaries. This book thus is a timely summary and renewed introduction to a complex and engaging body of thought, a path forward for the possibility of global human progress in troubled times.' --Julia Steinberger, University of Leeds, UK'The editors have brought together a distinguished international team of social scientists from different disciplines to assess the legacy of the landmark Brundtland report, Our Common Future (1987), along with the present and future prospects for sustainable development in the Anthropocene. The world is at a critical ecological juncture. This book is a must read for anyone seeking to understand how to accelerate the transition to a more equitable development path that can safe-guard both local ecosystems and Earth Systems.' --Robyn Eckersley, University of Melbourne, Australia 'Is sustainable development ''everything'' or ''something''? This edited volume makes a very important contribution to the discourse on critically analyzing the content, process and outcomes of sustainable development politics and policies; a discourse very different from the United Nations sponsored program for promoting sustainable development, which has been seriously ''stymied'' and ''diluted'' at the international and national levels of implementation.' --Carlo Aall, Western Norway Research Institute, and Western Norway University of Applied Sciences, Norway
