Population, resources and energy in the global economy: a vindication of Herman Daly’s vision

In: Beyond Uneconomic Growth

Author

  • Jonathan M. Harris

Abstract

This engaging book brings together leading ecological economists to collectively present a definitive case for looking beyond economic growth as the sole panacea for the world’s ecological predicament. Grounded in physics, ecology, and the science of human behavior, contributors show how economic growth itself has become “uneconomic” and adds to a ravaging of both social and ecological cohesion.
