Abstract: The main objectives of this paper are (1) to review some main trends from the past decades in assessing the interactions among development and environmental changes, and (2) to propose some future research directions. The so-called policy life-cycle hypothesis is used, which takes for granted that the political interest in new issues passes through various phases, ranging from awareness and agenda formation to policy strategies, solutions, and management. The potential impacts of projected changes in global climate and in technology on society and the environment may emerge a new wave of the policy life-cycle.
