Este libro profundiza en el análisis de la relación medio ambiente y desarrollo, ofreciendo al lector información que le permitirá comprender mejor las interrelaciones entre los sistemas humanos y naturales en un sistema global, exponiendo las nuevas aportaciones e investigaciones sobre el proceso de un desarrollo humano sostenible. Existen, sin duda, diversas visiones de este concepto que se encuadran dentro de distintas teorías e ideologías, según criterios diferentes de sostenibilidad débil -visión económica- o fuerte -visión ecológica-. Pero seguramente lo más relevante para encontrar salidas a esta crisis planetaria y de civilización que estamos generando y padeciendo sea concebir el desarrollo sostenible como un proceso de cambio abierto y explicar las grandes transiciones que se avecinan en el orden económico, tecnológico, social, ambiental, político e institucional. El texto se estructura en varias partes. En la primera se expone una serie de argumentos acerca de la conciencia de la insostenibilidad ante el cambio global, analizando las principales fuerzas motrices que lo impulsan. En la segunda se plantean las nuevas teorías del desarrollo sostenible bajo los principios de la sostenibilidad integral y la interpretación de los procesos de equilibrios dinámicos. La tercera parte se dedica a analizar las estrategias de cambio y las grandes transiciones, incluyendo novedosos planteamientos para encarar el futuro. La obra finaliza con una reflexión profunda sobre la coevolución del sistema socioeconómico en armonía con la biosfera dentro de un sistema global.

This book fills a gap in the literature on environmental sustainability by addressing the topic from the perspective of social and economic development. Progress in understanding and achieving sustainability requires the integration of scientific, social, economic, and legal issues. Yet progress in understanding and achieving sustainability will only be achieved through integration of scientific, social, economic, and legal aspects. A treatise on environmental sustainability should raise the current state of knowledge by proposing and recommending decision-making efforts and breaking new ground with agendas aimed for the younger generation. These younger scientists will be confronted with future uncertainty related to the set of crises that characterise the 21st Century (e.g. ecological, social, food, energy, environmental, climatic, financial, etc.). Currently, there are a number of indicators that demonstrate that ecological conditions are being compromised globally. These include reduced primary productivity, reduction in biological complexity, spreading pollution such as eutrophication, ecological degradation in any continental/basin/coastal/sea ecosystem, reduction in biodiversity, lowered resilience and slow recovery of damaged ecosystems, and reduced ecological integrity. All of these problems are related to social and economic pressure. The challenge for most ecological systems is not only to establish the baseline for current ecosystem conditions, but also to explore options for recovery and sustainability. The latter involves ecological restoration where ecosystem and environmental services are maintained and enhanced. These services are essential to social integration and economic development. This book not only introduces a theoretical and conceptual framework for the topic, but also analyses the uncertainty for sustainability because of dwindling natural resources. It includes contributions providing a basis for public policies, case studies integrating concepts and tools for solutions, and a set of position papers addressing new agenda topics that will shape the 21st century. The book will be useful for researchers, professors and students alike, as well as for all stakeholders from social, economic and academic sectors.

La sostenibilidad, cualidad de lo sostenible, hace referencia a un proceso que puede alargarse en el tiempo. Cuando este proceso lo referimos a cuestiones socio-ecológicas, comprobamos cómo, desde hace ya largo tiempo, no son pocas las voces acreditadas que han puesto sobre aviso del progresivo deterioro ecológico y sus consecuencias perjudiciales para la vida humana. Nuestra obra parte de estas negatividades para repensar la idea de sostenibilidad en sus justos términos, y así dar cabida a una variedad de aportaciones que ayuden a restituimos dentro de los límites ecosistémicos.

Universities around the world have embraced internationalisation at the policy level, but struggle to put that policy into practice, particularly at the coalface of teaching and learning. To date, faculty voices have been largely silent in the literature on internationalising the curriculum. This book begins to address this gap. What does ‘internationalisation of the curriculum’ (IoC) mean in practice? How is it conceived, implemented and assessed within specific disciplines, locales and types of institutions? Why does it matter? These questions are addressed in this book by academics teaching in the fields of business, education and health, in a range of institutions across North America, the Middle East, Europe, East Asia and Australia. Reflecting critically on personal experience, through a scholarly engagement with current research, each chapter offers new ways of thinking about internationalising curricula in an increasingly interconnected world. The editors’ commentaries draw out the tensions between personal, disciplinary and institutional motivations, imperatives, and interests – in other words, tensions between the ideal and the do-able – which come into play in the practice of internationalising the curriculum, and offer insightful suggestions for future research and practice. Critical Perspectives on Internationalising the Curriculum in Disciplines: Reflective Narrative Accounts from Business, Education and Health is essential reading for academics and administrators invested in exploring new ways to better prepare students for life and work in the 21st century.

This book highlights the traditional boundaries of the textile industry and discusses to what extent organic cotton is sustainable. It also examines the domestic and international influences of agricultural practices on cotton. Sustainability issues in the textile and fashion sectors require the influences that arise from beyond the boundaries of the conventional textile industry to be taken into account. These “external” influences—from (international or domestic) agricultural practices and energy policies to consumption patterns and levels of ecological notions of the society—have a significant impact on the sustainability of the textile and fashion sectors as a whole. Ecological and social concerns go far beyond individual companies and industries; therefore, in order to become more sustainable, the textile (and fashion) industry needs to address these concerns appropriately and connect with other disciplines, industries, communities, and international groups.

Megacity development and the inherent risks and opportunities for humans and the environment is a theme of growing urgency in the 21st century. Focusing on Latin America where urbanization is most advanced, this book studies the complexity of a ‘mega-urban system’ and explores interrelations between sectors and issues by providing an in-depths study of one particular city, Santiago de Chile. The book attempts to (i) focus on the emergence of risk in megacities by analyzing risk elements, (ii) evaluate the extent and severity of risks, (iii) develop strategies to cope with adverse risks, and (iv) to guide urban development by combining concepts with empirical evidence. Drawing on the work of an interdisciplinary and international consortium of academic and professional partners, the book is written for scholars in cross-cutting areas of urban, sustainability, hazard, governance and planning research as well as practitioners from local, regional and international organizations.

La humanidad se encuentra ante un cambio global en la llamada era del Antropoceno. Para hallar salidas a esta crisis planetaria y de civilización, que estamos generando y padeciendo, todo indica que hay que concebir la sostenibilidad de forma integral y plantear el desarrollo sostenible no como una doctrina o un modelo definido, sino como un conjunto de procesos de cambio abierto y equilibrios dinámicos y resilientes de permanente aprendizaje, que marcan las trayectorias de los sistemas socioecológicos. Las sociedades del siglo XXI se enfrentan a una gran transición socioeconómica-ecológica mediante una familia de transiciones a gran escala. Se perciben distintos escenarios para aspirar a la sostenibilidad global. Conocemos las tendencias actuales pero no sabemos el destino final: puede ser una evolución gradual o saltos en puntos de bifurcación imprevistos. Gobernar las grandes transiciones sociourbanas, técnico-económicas y político-institucionales en clave de sostenibilidad permitiría garantizar la coevolución entre los sistemas humanos y la biosfera, dando un nuevo sentido al progreso. Este libro profundiza en el análisis de la integración de los principios de la sostenibilidad que dan lugar a la opción social definida como desarrollo sostenible, especialmente desde un enfoque coevolutivo. En la parte primera del libro se analizan las fuerzas motrices que impulsan el cambio global y los procesos de insostenibilidad del modelo dominante. En la parte segunda se aborda la multidimensionalidad del paradigma sostenibilista y de la ciencia de la sostenibilidad, incorporando los nuevos indicadores que señalan la buena dirección de un tránsito sostenible. En la parte tercera se estudian las estrategias de cambio y las grandes transiciones de las sociedades modernas hacia un futuro común. La obra finaliza con una reflexión profunda sobre la coevolución del sistema humano y el sistema natural dentro del sistema global.
