Abstract: Abstract In this chapter, Global Safety and Sustainable Development, the relation between global safety and sustainable development is discussed as an example of a complex societal policy problem to which the Compram methodology can be applied. In this chapter we reflect further on research question d: can one general methodology for handling complex societal problems support the problem handling process of different complex societal problems (expectation d)? We emphasize in this chapter as a hypothetical theoretical example, the discussion of the definition of sustainable development in relation to agriculture, industry, and labor and the formulation of the desired goal of how the experts in step one of the Compram methodology could have performed this in their problem handling process regarding sustainable development. These are problem handling phases 1.4–2.1. Based on this hypothetical discussion, we give a definition of sustainable development and indicate how a desired goal can be discussed and formulated. In this example the view of only a few experts is given: the reflections of an expert on agriculture, on environment, and on economics. A further discussion of the other experts could lead to a different outcome of the discussion. Here only the way in which the Compram methodology can be applied is emphasized.
