A unified innovation system theory that integrates the eradication of threats to nature with the promotion of development is critically important to advance an original pedigree and trajectory of epistemology. Africa must learn and appreciate the costs to itself from the way Europe industrialised. It can neither follow nor imitate the European pattern of industrialisation. It has to include in its own development agenda both the meeting of social needs and choosing a path of development that would not bring ecological harm in the process. The African innovation system has to evolve in a nature protecting, rather than hurting, system; in addition, social needs must be met rather than exacerbating the social inequalities path of development."--Back cover | |

The uptake of environmentally sensitive innovation to transform production systems in sub-Saharan Africa -- Chapter 2. Climate debt owed to Africa: what to demand and how to collect? -- Chapter 3. Education, convergence and carbon dioxide growth per capita -- Chapter 4. Green markets of the future: an economic opportunity also for newly industrializing countries and South Africa? -- Chapter 5. Science for the future: challenges and methods for transdisciplinary sustainability research -- Chapter 6. Conceptualizing sustainable development as a global problem: the role of strategic knowledge -- Chapter 7. Why radical innovations fail: the case of technological change in German coal-fired power plants -- Chapter 8. In search of green knowledge: a cognitive approach to sustainable development -- Chapter 9. Innovation for sustainability in a changing world: The South African-German dialogue on science for sustainability -- Chapter 10. The ecological economics synthesis for sustainability: post scriptum conclusion "The innovation system theory has to deal with climate change as it generates the intellectual tools to promote development. A unified innovation system theory that integrates the eradication of threats to nature with the promotion of development is critically important to advance an original pedigree and trajectory of epistemology. Africa must learn and appreciate the costs to itself from the way Europe industrialised. It can neither follow nor imitate the European pattern of industrialisation. It has to include in its own development agenda both the meeting of social needs and choosing a path of development that would not bring ecological harm in the process. The African innovation system has to evolve in a nature protecting, rather than hurting, system; in addition, social needs must be met rather than exacerbating the social inequalities path of development."--Back cover Sustainable development fast Sustainable engineering fast Technological innovations fast Sustainable engineering / Congresses Technological innovations / Congresses Technological innovations SCIENCE / Applied Sciences bisacsh TECHNOLOGY & ENGINEERING / Inventions bisacsh TECHNOLOGY & ENGINEERING / Reference bisacsh Nachhaltigkeit Technological innovations Africa Sustainable engineering Africa Sustainable development Africa Technische Innovation (DE-588)4431027-4 gnd rswk-swf Nachhaltigkeit (DE-588)4326464-5 gnd rswk-swf Umweltschutz (DE-588)4061644-7 gnd rswk-swf Afrika Europa (DE-588)4015701-5 gnd rswk-swf Afrika (DE-588)4000695-5 gnd rswk-swf (DE-588)1071861417 Konferenzschrift gnd-content Europa (DE-588)4015701-5 g Umweltschutz (DE-588)4061644-7 s Technische Innovation (DE-588)4431027-4 s Nachhaltigkeit (DE-588)4326464-5 s 1\p DE-604 Afrika (DE-588)4000695-5 g 2\p DE-604 Muchie, Mammo (DE-588)1104504588 edt Baskaran, Angathevar edt Erscheint auch als Druck-Ausgabe Innovation for sustainability 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 2\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
