Limits to Growth...Again

Bennett, Jeffrey

Description

The numerous definitions of sustainability that appear in the economics, ecology and policy literature all focus on the key societal goal of self-preservation. No society wants to see itself reduced in stature with the passage of time just as most of the individuals who comprise society want to see their descendants enjoy a quality of life that is at least as good as their own.
