Description

Exploring the limits of two opposing paradigms of sustainability, this fourth edition of a popular book provides an insightful and accessible analysis of weak versus strong sustainability. Eric Neumayer examines the debate surrounding sustainable development, focusing on whether natural capital can be substituted by other forms of capital.

The author investigates the availability of natural resources for production, environmental consequences of economic growth, and critical forms of natural capital that require preservation due to risk, uncertainty, and ignorance about the future. He also discusses measures of sustainability, including indicators of both weak and strong sustainability.
