We might think sustainable management is a new idea, created in the
1960s by enlightened modern scientists. We might think that it puts
us on a new path, beyond what management was originally about. But
this is not true. Sustainable management is as old as civilization
and was a foundation stone of management science as it was formed
in the first decade of the 20th century. Recovering this forgotten
past provides deeper roots and greater traction to advance
sustainable management in our own times. This book charts a history
of sustainable management from premodern times, through the birth
of management science as an offshoot of the conservation movement,
to the present day. The authors argue that modern tools like Triple
Bottom Line reporting and multiple Sustainable Development Goals
may be less useful than a return to a more fundamental and holistic
view of management.
