Résumé :
|
Ecological economics as a practice seeks to comprehend the evolving interactions between humans and the natural world. ranging across the discipline from its conceptual and philosophical foundations to problems of global warming and waste production in the chemical industry, the authors address the central dilemna of control over nature by humans ignorant of the environment impacts of their actions. they argue for an evolutionary approach to human-nature interactions and for the use of natural science concepts, such as entropy.
