セミナー概要
セミナー言語：英語
Despite decades of thought and practice regarding the concept of sustainable development, we have yet to agree on an operational definition. The commonly accepted definition of meeting the needs of present generations while enabling future generations to meet their own needs fails to account for the changing and often subjective nature of need. Moreover, it does not adequately address the fundamental question of who decides sustainability for whom. These issues pertain to equally ambiguously identified relationships between economic growth and needs-based economic development, between environmental governance and human rights governance, and between environmental and human rights governances on the one hand and economic globalization, information globalism, and migration on the other. Both Bhutan and the Indian state of Kerala have been upheld as potential prototypes of sustainable development, the former with its prinicples of Gross National Happiness and the latter with its village-based, highly participatory resource mapping and redistribution to elevate living standards without having to increase per capita income or engage in excessive consumption. Yet both Bhutan and Kerala are experiencing rapid changes in migration patterns and socioeconomic conditions, and these changes are posing major challenges to approaches long considered congruent with sustainable development. What these challenges signify for our approaches to sustainable development worldwide constitutes the focal point of this presentation and related discussion.
