Routledge Handbook of Global Sustainability Governance
Acerca deste libro electrónico
In this landmark text, an international group of acclaimed scholars provides an overview of key analytical and normative perspectives, material and ideational structural barriers to sustainability transformation, and transformative strategies. Drawing on pivotal new and contemporary research, the volume highlights aspects to be considered and blind spots to be avoided when trying to understand and implement global sustainability governance. In this context, the authors of this book debunk many myths about all-too optimistic accounts of progress towards a sustainability transition. Simultaneously, they suggest approaches that have the potential for real sustainability transformation and systemic change, while acknowledging existing hurdles. The wide-ranging chapters in the collection are organised into four key parts:
• Part 1: Conceptual lenses
• Part 2: Ethics, principles, and debates
• Part 3: Key challenges
• Part 4: Transformative approaches
This handbook will serve as an important resource for academics and practitioners working in the fields of sustainability governance and environmental politics.
