Sustainability is a pressing concern for people and governments around the world, but it is also an essentially contested concept that requires an understanding of the stakes, trade-offs, and complex politics at play. Sustainability: The Basics offers an accessible and interdisciplinary introduction to the concept, and discusses key questions such as:

  • What are the core principles of sustainability?
  • What are the key ethical considerations for questions of sustainability?
  • How do we measure sustainability?
