Overview

This volume examines the concept of economic sustainability through the everyday practices of education, production, distribution, consumption, economic development, and public policy. It explores the economic systems and processes shaped by capitalism and how commodification has led to uneven and unsustainable development. Particular attention is given to how ideas of sustainability are constructed through education and how, without a critique of capitalism, these discussions often overlook the exploitation and commodification of both nature and human beings. This book advocates for a new paradigm based on socio-ecological transition that places sustainability and equity at the core of economic development and the political economy. It will be valuable to students and researchers interested in public policy, sustainable development, and the political economy.
