The Economics of Sustainable Development

By: Halpern, Aaron

Recent theories of economic growth, fiscal policy and the open economy have important implications for sustainable development. Papers in this volume, derived from a Centre for Economic Policy Research joint conference with the OECD Development Centre, examine the implications of explicitly incorporating resource depletion, pollution abatement and sustainability into orthodox economic theory, while also injecting a macroeconomic debate on the environment.
