T.R. – Int. J. of Sustainable Development
2012
textabstractThe challenges facing developed countries in the coming decades require a fundamental
reorientation and re-conceptualisation of our current socio-economic fabric. Resource
scarcities, climate change concerns, ageing populations, economic shifts and
globalisation are examples of trends that are increasing the pressure on various
institutions and society in general, and will inevitably involve drastic changes. Necessary,
and perhaps imminent, transformations in energy supply, production and consumption,
welfare and health-care systems and mobility pose a significant challenge for governance
scholars to develop an understanding of how such transitions arise, and how they may be
influenced to engender more sustainable futures.
