Governance, democracy and sustainable development

moving beyond the impasse

"This very timely and important collection draws together some of the world's leading thinkers on environment and development to debate one of the most important issues of our time: sustainable development. They very usefully remind us all that in order to be politically sustainable, the sustainability transition will have to find a way to maximize policy synergies in a democratically legitimate manner."--Provided by publisher.
