Rezensionen

It is not only the scale of the challenges facing the world that is unprecedented; it is also their increasing interconnectedness that calls for the reaffirmation of the importance of economics pluralism in the study of sustainable economic development. This volume provides valuable political economy insights and perspectives, broadening and deepening the explanatory and interpretive frameworks for analysing various aspects of sustainable development.
