This multidisciplinary Open Access book provides nine
problem-solving lectures for sustainable development for the planet
and prosperity. Those are two of the five keywords for the
Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs): people, the planet,
prosperity, peace, and partnerships, or "the 5Ps". Each of these
lectures is classified into one of the keywords for SDGs and based
on law, economics, management, international trade, input-output
analysis, or agricultural and urban engineering. Further, each
lecture delineates the essence of each discipline when it is
practically applied to development studies. This book, Sustainable
Development Disciplines for Society, along with its sister volume
related to the people, peace and partnerships, will be useful in
studying development. Interdisciplinary research is necessary to
achieve the SDGs advocated by the United Nations. Hence, it is
essential to learn the basics of individual disciplines, as they
each offer ample knowledge fostering problem solving through the
accumulation of existing research. This and its sister volume are
the first comprehensive textbooks summarizing the essence of each
necessary discipline to approach development studies from an
interdisciplinary perspective. In developing countries, this book
will provide access to development research for readers aiming to
further develop their own nations. Moreover, in developed
countries, this book will provide access to problem-solving
research for readers seeking holistic solutions to complex social
problems.
