Technology, Globalization, and Sustainable Development offers a
unified, transdisciplinary approach for transforming the industrial
state in order to promote sustainable development. The authors
present a deep analysis of the ways that industrial states - both
developed and developing - are currently unsustainable and how
economic and social welfare are related to the environment, to
public health and safety, and to earning capacity and meaningful
and rewarding employment. The authors offer multipurpose solutions
to the sustainability challenge that integrate industrial
development, employment, technology, environment, national and
international law, trade, finance, and public and worker health and
safety. The authors present a compelling wake-up call that warns of
the collision course set between the current paths of continued
growth and inevitable unsustainability in the world today. Offering
clear examples and real solutions, this textbook illustrates how
the driving forces that are currently promoting unsustainability
can be refocused and redesigned to reverse course and improve the
state of the world. This book is essential reading for those
teaching and studying sustainable development and the critical
roles of the economy, employment, and the environment.
