[edit] GREEN DEVELOPMENT

This new edition has been completely re-written and gives a valuable analysis of the theory and practice of sustainable development and suggests at the start of the new millennium we should think radically about the challenge of sustainability

This revised new edition of Green Development retains the clear and powerful argument which characterised the original. It gives a valuable analysis of the theory and practice of sustainable development and suggests that at the start of the new millennium, we should think radically about the challenge of sustainability. This fully revised edition discusses: - the roots of sustainable development thinking and its evolution in the last three decades of the Twentieth Century - the dominant ideas within mainstream sustainable development - the nature and diversity of alternative ideas about sustainability - the problems of environmental degradation and the environmental impacts of development - strategies for building sustainability in development from above and below. Green Development, 2nd Edition offers a synthesis of the distinctly theoretical ideas on sustainability based on the industrialized economies of the North and the practical, applied ideas in the South which tend to ignore 'First World' theory. It gives a clear discussion of theory and extensive practical insights drawn from Africa, Latin America and Asia. New features include: - further reading - chapter outlines - chapter summaries - new discussion topics
