Abstract: John E. Coulter illustrates how economic development theory assumes a natural surrounding that is free to take from and dump into. As the last player on the planet to promote a development on a massive scale, China finds the surroundings constrained. A new approach, drawing on Chinese traditional ideas of nature, and some of the building blocks of modern science, may present a better understanding for harmonizing economic development and environmental conservation.
