Abstract

This paper tables axioms which model The Problem of Sustainable Economic Development (i.e., The Tragedy of the Commons), a theoretical framework which, reductio ad absurdum, falsifies many widely-held economic, evolutionary, and ecological principles, including the central thesis of ‘ecological economics’. This brief communiqué lays the foundation for evolutionary stable economic development strategy, and, thus, fosters global threat mitigation, international cooperation, food security, national security, long-distance dispersibility, and thus, ultimately, the long-term survival of the human species.
