Joint Production and Responsibility in Ecological Economics

Stefan Baumgärtner, Malte Faber and Johannes Schiller

in Books from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: This groundbreaking book takes a fresh look at how environmental problems emerge from economic activity and how they may be addressed in a responsible and sustainable manner. At its centre is the concept of joint production. This captures the phenomenon whereby several effects necessarily emerge from one activity and whereby human action always entails unintended consequences. This, according to the authors, is the structural cause behind modern-day environmental problems.
