`Is sustainable development everything or something ? This edited volume makes a very important contribution to the discourse on critically analysing the content, process and outcomes of sustainable development politics and policies; a discourse very different from the United Nations sponsored program for promoting sustainable development, which has been seriously stymied and diluted at the international and national levels of implementation.' -- Carlo Aall, Western Norway Research Institute, and Western Norway University of Applied Sciences, Norway `So much has been written about sustainable development that it is hard to imagine anything new. Yet here it is. The authors offer fresh insights and new perspectives on all the key issues - from limits and equity to politics and growth - in assessing sustainable development on its 30th anniversary.' -- Daniel J. Fiorino, American University, US `An overview of the progress made towards sustainable development since the publication of Our Common Future is timely, and a focus on the considerable challenges still to be met that have arisen over the last thirty years is vital. This book achieves both goals and provides a valuable resource for students and researchers.' -- Delyse Springett, co-editor of Routledge International Handbook of Sustainable Development (2015)
