The View Is Optimistic To The Extent That Economics, The Compass Of Our Industrial Society Is Open To Inputs And Suggestions Coming From Outside Orthodox Schemes.
Trransdisciplinary Science Is One Key Element Of Such A Change, And This Book Is A Transdisciplinary Project.
in The Field Of The Criticism Of Gdp As An Omni-comprehensi\/e Instrument, The Book Also Describes The Methodology Of The Index Of Sustainable Econommic Welfare (isee), Proposed By H.
Daly And John Cobb In 1989.
They Proposed Some Revisions To The System Of National Accounts And Gdp In Ordet To Add Information For Policy Makers Towards Sustainability.
Starting With Consumption, Some Adjustments Are Proposed To Allow For Inequality Of Income Distribution, Environmental Problems (such As Pollution Costs, Long Term Environmental Damage, Depletion Of Non-renewable Resources) And Social Issues (such As Commuting Costs, Urbanization Costs, Public Expenditure For Health And Education).
Com0utations For Different Nations Have Shown That Isew Inncreases Together With Increasing Gdp Up To A Point, Beyond Which It Stagnates Or Even Decreases, Due To The Environmental And Sociql Pressure Of Economic Growth.
The Isew Is A Feasible Calculation And Some Experiments At The Local Level In Italy Are Ptesented.
Advances In Integrating Different Susstainability Indicators (both Economic-based And Physical-based) Are Also Presented As Welll As Their Use Under A Sustainability Viewpoint.
