生态经济学的前沿问题

Philip Lawn, Flinders University, Australia

Ecological economics formally emerged in the late 1980s in response to the failure of mainstream economic paradigms to deal adequately with the interdependence of social, economic and ecological systems. Frontier Issues in Ecological Economics focuses on a range of cutting-edge issues in the field of ecological economics and outlines plausible measures to achieve a more sustainable, just, and efficient world for all.

‘This is a rich and rewarding book both in terms of synthesizing familiar concepts and introducing new ideas. . . This is a well-written and entertaining book worth reading by all those interested in the frequently murky literature on sustainable development. It is likely to generate not only a lively discussion but also a body of empirical work that might help to resolve some of the major controversies in our field.’
– John Gowdy, Ecological Economics
