Environmental Sustainability in a Sraffian Framework

Robin Hahnel

Review of Radical Political Economics, 2017, vol. 49, issue 3, 477-488

Abstract: This article expands the Sraffian framework to address environmental sustainability by showing how to define and measure what ecological economists call “throughput†and increases in throughput efficiency. In the process it clarifies issues that are often muddled in the steady-state and de-growth literatures. JEL classification: B51, Q55, Q56
