Some overlaps between the first and second thirty years of ecological economics
Ecologies of Scale
Eco-economist Herman Daly presents a practical programme for an egalitarian, steady-state economy. From Smith and Mill to Georgescu and Schumacher, Daly and Benjamin Kunkel debate problems of development, quantitative and qualitative, and biophysical equilibrium. If the world economy is conceived as a sub-system of a larger eco-system, what are the limits to growth

The Local Politics of Global Sustainability
Sustainable development is defined as development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs. Like most political issues sustainability embraces issues of economic environmental and social justice and equity. In its real sense sustainability is the scope quality richness and benignity of human culture the biosphere and the economic life man made for them and the distribution of t…
Growth, debt, and the World Bank
Incorporating Values in a Bottom-Line Ecological Economy
The search for a social goodness function in economic systems is reviewed, especially in light of the fact that the economy is a subsystem of a biosphere that has its own rules for determining success, or at least for limiting feasibility. The frequent perversity of reductionist quantitative success indicators in economics (profit, quotas, GDP) is mainly attributed to the preanalytic vision of the economy as an isolated circular flow, and of homo…
Growth and Development: Critique of a Credo
With so much academic prestige and business and government experience represented on the Commission that produced the World Bank's Growth Report, issued in 2008, the reader comes to it with hopeful expectations. Unfortunately the Report is largely an apologia for globalization, the World Bank, and GDP idolatry. The Report's major failures and fallacies are identified and examined

Crescimento sustentável? Não, obrigado
Policy, Possibility and Purpose
What are the presuppositions for policy-making to be a sensible endeavor? At a minimum the policy-maker must believe that there is more than one alternative future (non-determinism), and that some possible futures are truly better than others (non-nihilism). The combinations of acceptance and denial of these two pre-suppositions are considered, along with a deeper look at what ultimately limits possible alternatives. The focus then shifts to the …

Beyond Growth: The Economics of Sustainable Development
Herman Daly is probably the most prominent advocate of the need for a change in economic thinking in response to environmental crisis. an iconoclast economist who has worked as a renegade insider at the World Bank in recent years, Daly has argued for overturning some basic economic assumptions. He has a wide and growing reputation among environmentalists, both inside and outside the academy. Daly argues that if sustainable development means anyth…
A compass for sustainable development
The enlargement of complexity and effects of environmental problems has increased the need for a ‘compass’ to point us in the direction of sustainability. The four principles—System Conditions—which we have earlier described, along with a step-by-step approach to meet them, is such a compass. The System Conditions are first order principles for Sustainability: • they do not cover the whole area of Sustainability; • they are complementary, i.e. th…

Environmental Sustainability: Universal and Non‐Negotiable
After deploring the mystification of the term sustainability and tendencies to conflate it with society's desiderata, we desegregate three types of sustainability: social, economic, and environmental. After clarifying these three linked and overlapping concepts, and construing them with sustainable development, we distinguish quantitative throughput growth from qualitative development, and mention intergenerational equity and scarcity of natural …

A Marxian-Malthusian view of poverty and development
The names of Marx and Malthus are often linked in disjunction but never in conjunction. Nevertheless, the thesis argued in this paper is that the two historically dominant theories of poverty, the Marxian and the Malthusian, are not inconsistent, but complementary; that a union of the two yields a basic fourfold typology of social classes by differential ownership of property and differential fertility; that this typology can also be viewed as a …
Steady-State Economics: A New Paradigm
HOW IS THE ECONOMY related to its environment, the ecosystem? The economy, in its physical dimensions, is a subsystem of the earth ecosystem. The ecosystem is finite, nongrowing, and closed. A closed system is one in which matter neither enters nor exits but in which energy does enter and exit. In the earth ecosystem solar energy enters and exits, and it is this throughput of energy that powers the material biogeochemical cycles on which life dep…

Free‐market environmentalism: Turning a good servant into a bad master
The virtue of internalizing environmental costs so that prices reflect full social opportunity costs at the margin, reaffirmed by Terry Anderson and Donald Leal, is unarguable. Beyond that, however, Anderson and Leal's Free Market Environmentalism neglects the classic works in the intellectual tradition to which it is supposed to be a contribution; is unconvincing and inconsistent in the functions it ascribes to the "environmental entrepreneur"; …

Reconciling the Economics of Social Equity and Environmental Sustainability
Environmental sustainability through project appraisals
Environmentally sustainable development's final aim is to bring a better quality of life for all time. To reach that objective, some economists see man‐made capital as the main constraining factor for economic growth. Others argue that such a unidirectional search for growth will not bring economic development since natural capital is the main constraint to long‐ term growth. A reconciliatory position is proposed in this paper by which the search…
Marx and Malthus in North-East Brazil: A Note on the World's Largest Class Difference in Fertility and its Recent Trends
During the late 1960s and early 1970s the world's largest class difference in fertility was recorded in North-east Brazil. By the late 1970s the difference had narrowed dramatically, although it probably remains larger than in any other society. The immediate economic consequence is an unlimited supply of cheap labour and a path of economic growth that increases both inequality and the relative size of the poorer class. There are ideological disa…

Consumption and Welfare: Two Views of Value Added
The standard view is that value is added to raw material by labor and capital. The question here discussed is whether or not raw material must contain value previously added by nature, or whether it can be simply inert indestructible building blocks. Can humanly added value substitute for value added by nature? If the answer were yes, it should be possible, since matter-energy is not destroyed in consumption, to substitute the waste flow of matte…

The economic history of Uruguay from the turn of the century up to the early 1950's is characterized by economic growth, by extensive governmental involvement in economic activity, and by an ardent secularist faith in the welfare state ideals of the great José Batlle y Ordóñez and the Batllista tradition which lived on after him. Its small size, stable democracy, and apparent aloofness from the problems of the rest of the continent have earned la…
