Green Economics: Confronting the Ecological Crisis : Confronting the Ecological Crisis

Green Economics provides analysis of environmental problems and their potential solutions for students and practitioners in the fields of environmental studies and environmental economics and policy. The book's pluralistic, non-dogmatic, and committed investigation into the values of ecological sustainability, economic justice, and human dignity is a welcomed offering to those frustrated with mainstream treatments of environmental issues. Robin Hahnel offers a glimpse of where mainstream economics can be helpful, where mainstream economics can be misleading, and where heterodox ideas can provide important insights. Book jacket.
