The Basic Economic Framework of Sustainability

Beschreibung

The number of questions related to climate, pollution, mass extinction, threats from technology, are on a rise. How to understand our place within the environment, how to create a link between our economy and the environment, how to evaluate natural resources compared to market values? This book is seeking answers to the questions what sustainability means, what happens when our economy, our practice, our life, our political-economic establishment are unsustainable, if the reasonable and theoretically optimal use of resources does sum up to sustainability on the global scale, how technology affects sustainability, if there is anything missing from the Demand-Supply graph. My work intends to answer the less pronounced questions like how to make decisions if our way of life is sustainable or not; in case our answer is not, what we should take into consideration when we look for the way forward.

Autor

Imre Major, 46, father of two, is a Hungarian economist with a degree in law. During his professional career he has worked mostly in the telecommunications, plastic processing and IT industries. He is an experienced sailor in love with Lake Balaton, an average driver and a photographer, a weak chess player and a beginner in Japanese jodo. He is usually referred to as the person who possesses the most pieces of irrelevant information. Most of the time, Imre goes his own way independently of the expectations or at times against them. He then tries to cope with the arising problems he causes himself and lives with the problems he causes others. Ten years ago, he started to understand and explore the way he thinks and as a result he now sees the problems the human race inflicts on itself and the reasons and patterns behind this behaviour. This is his first book; kindly read it with an open mind. It is easy to understand; however, most probably it is much harder to accept the impacts we cause to ourselves, or the urgent necessity to change our own behaviour. In future books, he plans to further explore the definitions related to life and human nature he uses. Imre believes these definitions to be original and positively applicable.
