The Future of Sustainable Development

The concept of sustainable development has become the organizing framework for much economic, social and environmental policy because it meets a policy need. Specifically, it has the potential to address environmental issues in a way that is more consistent with economic and social aspirations than the emphasis on ‘limits to growth’, which was characteristic of much environmental thinking in the 1970s and 1980s.
