For the common good : redirecting the economy toward community, the environment, and a sustainable development

London : Green print, 1990

Abstract/Sommario: Daly (economist, the World Bank) and Cobb (philosophy, Claremont Graduate School) expose the outmoded abstractions of mainstream economic theory. They conclude, in particular, that economic growth the prevailing yardstick for measuring economic success is no longer an appropriate goal as energy consumption, overpopulation, and pollution increase. Instead, they propose a new measure for the economy the Index of Sustainable Economic Welfare
