The ecological pressure, however, has continued to rise and mainstream sustainability discourse has proven to be problematic. It contains an instrumental view of the world, a strong focus on technological solutions, and the premise that natural and human-made 'capitals' are substitutable. This trajectory, which is referred to as 'weak sustainability', reproduces inequalities, denies intrinsic values in nature, and jeopardises the wellbeing of humans as well as other beings. Based on the assumptions of strong sustainability, this edited book presents practical and theoretical alternatives to today's unsustainable societies. It investigates and advances pathways for humanity that are ecologically realistic, ethically inclusive, and receptive to the task's magnitude and urgency. The book challenges the traditional anthropocentric ethos and ontology, economic growth-dogma, and programmes of ecological modernisation. It discusses options with examples on different levels of analysis, from the individual to the global, addressing the economic system, key sectors of society, alternative lifestyles, and experiences of local communities. Examining key topics including human-nature relations and wealth and justice, this book will be of great interest to students and scholars of environmental and development studies, ecological economics, environmental governance and policy, sustainable business, and sustainability science. 517 $aStrongly Sustainable Societies 606 $aSustainable development 606 $aSustainable development$xSocial aspects 606 $aEnvironmental protection 606 $aConservation of natural resources 606 $aNature$xEffect of human beings on 606 $aBiodiversity 615 0$aSustainable development. 615 0$aSustainable development$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aEnvironmental protection. 615 0$aConservation of natural resources. 615 0$aNature$xEffect of human beings on. 615 0$aBiodiversity. 676 $a304.2 702 $aBonnedahl$b Karl Johan 702 $aHeikkurinen$b Pasi 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910772097803321 996 $aStrongly sustainable societies$93669436 997 $aUNINA
