CRITICAL ISSUES IN GLOBAL POLITICS
Heather M. Farley and Zachary A. Smith bring a desperately needed critique to
the notions and politics of sustainability that is absolutely necessary if we are
to achieve anything remotely livable for the future. Sustainability is an idea that
no-one wants to disagree with, but which few are willing to confront serious trade¬
offs in the status quo in business, government and even in civil society. This text is
a forceful tonic for a very sick patient.
Poter
Jacques, author of Environmental Skepticism: Ecology, Power,
and Public Life and co-author, with Sharon Ridgeway, of The Power
of the Talking Stick: Indigenous Politics and the World Ecological Crisis.
Humans are not living within their ecological means. We are using the earth s
resources at a pace that cannot be maintained. We have already seen evidence
of the fallout associated with ecological overconsumption, and continued abuse
of environmental systems will create increasing challenges both today and into
the future. Our depletion of natural systems minimizes the possibilities available
to future generations, which are expected to somehow rely on innovation and
ingenuity for their survival. Yet, despite the challenges we face, governments,
individuals, non-profits, educational institutions, and corporations are all heralding
the promise of sustainable development to save our environmental systems from
collapse, while allowing for uninterrupted economic growth.
Today, the concept of sustainability is a widespread goal that nearly everyone
supports. At the same time, almost no one means the same thing when they
use the term. Sustainability is so broad and overly used that it seems to mean
everything to everyone. The result is that the concept has lost its meaning. In this
book, the authors examine the misuses and abuses of sustainability and seek to
refine and clarify the concept. The authors offer a new definition of sustainability
-
what they
cali neo-sustainability
-
to help guide policies and practices that
respect the primacy of the environment, the natural limits of the environment, and
the relationship between environmental, social, and economic systems.
Heather M. Farley is a former University Sustainability Coordinator and a
researcher at Northern Arizona University, USA.
Zachary A. Smith is a Regents Professor of Environmental and Natural Resources
Policy and Administration in the Department of Politics and International Affairs at
Northern Arizona University, USA.
