The New Environmental Economics

Sustainability and Justice

By: Eloi Laurent

Too often, economics disassociates humans from nature, the economy from the biosphere that contains it, and sustainability from fairness. When economists do engage with environmental issues, they typically reduce their analysis to a science of efficiency that leaves aside issues of distributional analysis and justice. The aim of this lucid textbook is to provide a framework that prioritizes human well-being within the limits of the biosphere, and to rethink economic analysis and policy in the light of not just efficiency but equity. Leading economist Éloi Laurent systematically ties together sustainability and justice issues in covering a wide range of topics, from biodiversity and ecosystems, energy and climate change, environmental health and environmental justice, to new indicators of well-being and sustainability beyond GDP and growth, social-ecological transition, and sustainable urban systems. This book equips readers with ideas and tools from various disciplines alongside economics, such as history, political science, and philosophy, and invites them to apply those insights in order to understand and eventually tackle pressing twenty-first-century challenges. It will be an invaluable resource for students of environmental economics and policy, and sustainable development.

Just Transitions

Advancing Environmental and Social Justice

By: ELOI. LAURENT

This innovative book promotes a holistic, pragmatic and proactive approach to just transitions. Arguing that justice is both a goal and condition of transitions it rearticulates environmental and social challenges and rethinks the policies designed to overcome them. Éloi Laurent succinctly explores the concepts, frameworks, policy designs, and emerging institutions of just transitions and maps its progress from philosophical streams, to academic fields, to public policies embedded in institutions. Chapters explore a broad spectrum of transition policies, including those aimed at mitigating environmental inequality caused by air pollution and heatwaves, and proactive social-ecological policies such as fair carbon taxation and just mobility regulations. He discusses key examples from across the globe, spanning from food security in France, to water justice in South Africa, to disaster risk reduction in South Asia. Just Transitions is an essential resource for academics and students specialising in environmental sociology, sociology, social justice, social policy and ecology. Its pairing of theoretical insight and practical examples will also benefit policymakers and stakeholders working in environmental sustainability, climate change and public policy more broadly.
