Wealth, Saving and Sustainability

Kirk Hamilton

Chapter 3 in Is Economic Growth Sustainable?, 2010, pp 76-91 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Deriving conceptually sound and useful indicators of sustainable development has been a challenge, not least because sustainability is inherently a concern about the future. Yet the question of indicators is key: without some means to quantify progress towards sustainability, all of the policy commitments by governments and institutions to achieving sustainable development risk becoming empty promises.
