Sustainable development and environmental improvement are often
regarded as intrinsically valuable a priori. As a result, the
policies by which these goals are to be attained is often
inadequately scrutinised. In this book, ecological economics
addresses the institutional and policymaking aspects of
environmental problems, thus covering a broad socioeconomic
research agenda, in contradistinction to mainstream economic
approaches. The approach advocated here is open to differing
viewpoints on the same issue, sees conflict resolution as a social
process, and accepts the need for research into political-economic
issues, according a prominent position to the aims of society
itself. An in-depth analysis of the policy process is followed in
order to understand the pitfalls and barriers that will confront
society on the road to sustainable development. Readership: The
broad approach advocated will appeal to all involved in
environmental problems - decision makers, NGO members, and academic
scholars.
