Book Synopsis Theories of Sustainable Development by : Judith C. Enders
Download or read book Theories of Sustainable Development written by Judith C. Enders and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-10-24 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While sustainability has become a buzzword in discussions about the environment and development, work on theories of sustainable development has received much less attention. However, theory is vital as understanding the origins and development of the concept is the key to achieving successful implementation of sustainability. This book offers an interdisciplinary collection of research articles on the theories of sustainable development, drawing on a wide range of subjects including history, politics, governance, complex systems, economics and philosophy. It advocates viewing sustainable development not only as the establishment of a permanent, globally practicable and future-capable mode of life and economics, but as a complex array of problems involving a wide range of social-scientific and humanistic disciplines. This innovative approach means that the book is oriented toward current problems, not toward the established academic boundaries, and it draws out lessons that are relevant for those studying and working in sustainability across the world. This book will be of great interest to researchers and students of sustainable development and environmental politics, as well as practitioners working with sustainable development in politics, business, administration, and civil society organizations.
Book Synopsis Sustainable Development As a Principle of International Law by : Christina Voigt
Download or read book Sustainable Development As a Principle of International Law written by Christina Voigt and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2009 with total page 453 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume provides a framework for the doctrinal foundation of sustainable development as a principle of integration in international law. The work departs from the fragmented nature of the international legal system, a system that lacks integrative principles for creating coherent relations between, for example, the international trade regime of the WTO and multilateral environmental agreements. The specific focus is on a legal analysis of potential normative conflicts between climate measures as regulated by the UNFCCC and the Kyoto Protocol, in particular the flexibility instruments of international emissions trading and the Clean Development Mechanism, and the rules of the WTO. Attention is then given to the application of sustainable development as a principle of integration in relation to these conflicts. The book takes on several important, timely and demanding tasks related to the urgent global challenge of climate change and the capacity of international law to deal with complex and multifaceted issues. It addresses in particular: a [ The relations between various international legal regimes, especially between international trade law and climate law, a [ The legal status of sustainable development as a principle of international law, and a [ The analysis of interpretative methods and of principles that may serve to address conflicts between rules pertaining to different legal regimes. Here, integration as part of legal reasoning becomes particularly relevant.

Book Synopsis Sustainable Management by : Georg Müller-Christ
Download or read book Sustainable Management written by Georg Müller-Christ and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-06-17 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, a resource-oriented perception of sustainable management is presented. Firms that decide to act more sustainable have to bear in mind that they do not only need resources for economic activities today, but that they will need these tomorrow as well. This leads to contradictory management rationalities firms must deal with. The author presents his findings as regards the development of environmental and social responsibility and introduces a theory of management ecology. He takes a close look at the contradictions businesses have to face when governing their activity towards sustainability. Moreover, he identifies different notions of the resource term in management studies and develops a “sustainable resource management” which could help businesses redirect their economic activities from a solely profit-oriented to a resource-oriented way of operating.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wenn die gewaltigen ökologischen Herausforderungen der Gegenwart bewältigt werden sollen, braucht es klare ethische Orientierungen und tiefe Quellen innerer Kraft. Der Autor reflektiert die Potenziale der christlichen Tradition für eine Ethik und Spiritualität der Schöpfung. Dafür greift er auf biblische und liturgische Impulse ebenso zurück wie auf die Enzyklika Laudato si von Papst Franziskus und setzt sie mit naturwissenschaftlichen, soziologischen und ökonomischen Überlegungen in Beziehung. Auf dieser Grundlage entwickelt es eine Handlungs- und Hoffnungsperspektive, die durch Schwierigkeiten und Enttäuschungen hindurch tragfähig ist.
Book Synopsis Religion in the Anthropocene by : Celia Deane-Drummond
Download or read book Religion in the Anthropocene written by Celia Deane-Drummond and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2018-01-01 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Religion in the Anthropocene charts a new direction in humanities scholarship through serious engagement with the geopolitical concept of the Anthropocene. Drawing on religious studies, theology, social science, history, philosophy, and what can be broadly termed as environmental humanities, this collection represents a groundbreaking critical analysis of diverse narratives on the Anthropocene. The contributors to this volume recognize that the Anthropocene began as a geological concept, the age of the humans, but that its implications are much wider than this. Does the Anthropocene idea challenge the possibility of a sacred Nature, or is it a secularized theological anthropology more properly dealt with through traditional concepts from Roman Catholic social teaching on human ecology? Not all contributors to this volume agree about the answers to these and many more different questions. Readers will be challenged, provoked, and stimulated by this book.
Book Synopsis Sustainable Forest Management in a Changing World: a European Perspective by : Peter Spathelf
Download or read book Sustainable Forest Management in a Changing World: a European Perspective written by Peter Spathelf and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-12-04 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Yet another book on the topic of ‘Sustainable Forest Management’ can only be justified by new information that is of direct relevance. The contents of this volume concentrate on the very latest factors and developments, thus, hopefully, contributing both to the book’s attractiveness and to closing gaps in the discipline’s database. This book is written for researchers in the field of forest management, international forestry, and climate change-related issues, legal and policy advisors, as well as for managers of private companies who deal with SFM. The authors of the various sections are scientists in the field of forestry and other environmental sciences. They represent different institutions, mainly universities and research agencies in Germany, but also high-level international institutions in development co-operation, such as the World Bank, FAO, and IIASA. The scope of the book is to refresh the meanings and perceptions of SFM against the background of the rapid changes in our natural and social environment. Climate change and the rapid increase of atmospheric CO concentration is a global process 2 with negative impacts of different kinds, among others on natural ecosystems such as forests. A crucial issue therefore is how forest management can contribute to forest conservation in light of changing climatic conditions. Moreover, policy changes such as the introduction of certification schemes and the new emphasis laid on Non-Wood Forest Products justify the re-evaluation of the role of SFM in delivering ecological goods and services from our forests.

Book Synopsis Religious Environmental Activism by : Jens Köhrsen
Download or read book Religious Environmental Activism written by Jens Köhrsen and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-12-20 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume explores how religious and spiritual actors engage for environmental protection and fight against climate change. Climate change and sustainability are increasingly prominent topics among religious and spiritual groups. Different faith traditions have developed "green" theologies, launched environmental protection projects and issued public statements on climate change. Against this background, academic scholarship has raised optimistic claims about the strong potentials of religions to address environmental challenges. Taking a critical stance with regard to these claims, the chapters in this volume show that religious environmentalism is an embattled terrain. Tensions are an inherent part of religious environmentalism. These do not necessarily manifest themselves in open clashes between different parties but in different actions, views, theologies, ambivalences, misunderstandings, and sometimes mistrust. Keeping below the surface, these tensions can create effective barriers for religious environmentalism. The chapters examine how tensions are manifested and dealt with through a range of empirical case studies in various world regions. Covering different religious and spiritual traditions, they reflect on intradenominational, interdenominational, interreligious, and religious-societal tensions. Thereby, this volume sheds new light on the problems that religions face when they seek to take an active role in today’s societal challenges.

Book Synopsis Creation - Transformation - Theology by : Margit Eckholt
Download or read book Creation - Transformation - Theology written by Margit Eckholt and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on with total page 572 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The social and cultural challenges posed by the increasing threat to creation (climate change, destruction of biodiversity, etc.) are the starting point for new philosophical-ethical and theological reflections on the relationship between God, human beings and the world, as presented in this volume. God's creative impulse, which transforms anew, is at work in the actions of human beings and challenges us, in view of the threat to the "house of life" earth, to go new ways that make a common and good life possible. Creation and transformation are interrelated; an ecological theology of creation and practice of sustainability to be developed in the European context is to be embedded in the horizon of a global, liberating theology.

Book Synopsis Religion in Environmental and Climate Change by : Dieter Gerten
Download or read book Religion in Environmental and Climate Change written by Dieter Gerten and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2011-11-17 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Climate change and other global environmental changes deserve attention by the the humanities - they are caused mainly by human attitudes and activities and feed back to human societies. Focussing on religion allows for analysis of various human modes of perception, action and thought in relation to global environmental change. On the one hand, religious organizations are aiming to become "greener"; on the other hand, some religious ideas and practices display fatalism towards impacts of climate change. What might be the fate of different religions in an ever-warming world? This book gathers recent research on functions of religion in climate change from theological, ethical, philosophical, anthropological, historical and earth system analytical perspectives. Charting the spread from regional case studies to global-scale syntheses, the authors demonstrate that world religions and indigenous belief systems are already responding in highly dynamic ways to ongoing and projected climate changes - in theory and practice, for better or for worse. The book establishes the research field "religion in climate change" and identifies avenues for future research across disciplines.
