As our great economic machine grinds relentlessly forward in to a future of climate change, ecosystem failure, worsening divides between rich and poor, and declining fossil fuel supplies, governments are at long last starting to question the very structure of the global economy. In this fresh, politically charged analysis, Jonathon Porritt addresses the most pressing question of the 21st century; can capitalism, as the only real economic game in town, be retooled to deliver a sustainable future?
Drawing on the latest research, Porritt argues that it can and must be, and he lays out the framework for a new "sustainable capitalism" that cuts across the political divides in offering a future of sustainable prosperity, equity and ecosystem integrity. |
