All effects of human action will inevitably be played out within
our planet's limits; any hope of infinity is an illusion. And yet,
as Wolfgang Sachs warned almost twenty years ago, environmental
concerns have been assimilated into the rhetoric, dynamics and
power structures of development. This classic collection of
trenchant and elegant explorations addresses the crisis of the
Western world's relations with nature and social justice. Examining
the notions of efficiency, speed, globalization and development,
Sachs shows that sustainability, truly conceived, is incompatible
with the worldwide rule of economism. Planet Dialectics reveals
that the Western development model is fundamentally at odds with
both the quest for justice among the world's people and the
aspiration to reconcile humanity and nature.
