Abstract: The interplay between environment and economics is regarded as a prerequisite for sustainable development in modern societies, either in the developed or the developing world. Based on the experiences of the ill-conceived development patterns of the past, which exhausted natural resources and resulted in societal crisis and loss of prosperity, and the urgent needs for the immediate protection of the environment on the one hand and the change of the production and consumption patterns on the other, a new development model is designed and implemented. The successful application of this model depends on a set of critical aspects and essential means which by prioritizing the protection of the environment and by supporting the integration of the environmental dimension in other sectoral policies, provides the grounds for a 'green' economic development. © 1997 by John Wiley & Sons, Ltd and ERP Environment.
