Kompletní popis

This book aims to foster a more wide-ranging and nuanced discussion of the concept of 'enough'. Acknowledging the prominence of notions of sufficiency in debates about sustainability, it argues for a more complex, culturally and historically informed understanding of how these might be manifested across a wide array of contexts. Rather than simply adding further case studies of sufficiency in order to prove the efficacy of what might be called 'finite planet economics', the book holds up to the light a crucial 'keyword' within the sustainability discourse, tracing its origins and anatomising its current repertoire of usages. By expanding the historical and cultural scope of sufficiency, the book fills a significant gap in the current market for authors, students and educated persons who want to more deeply understand the changing and developing use of this term.
