商品描述

This book provides readers with a comprehensive understanding of the general framework of sustainable development paths in relation to where countries stand at present, by outlining the main challenges they face, and the potential pathways ahead to foster the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). In connecting different SDG's, the collection of chapters teases out the multifarious relationships and influences on policy, balancing economic, social, and environmental dimensions for development, making qualitative distinctions between high-income and low-income countries in the SDGs context. In doing so, the book emphasizes that with the rapid upliftment from extreme poverty and subsistence, globally, growing economic and social gaps have expanded with unprecedented speed. Widening divides in material wealth are shown, to some extent, as a 'side effect' of fast economic growth and development. This book draws out these connections between economic progress (expressed through shifts on per capita income) and the achievements and setbacks, to meeting each of the SDGs, respectively. Beyond its place in social scientific discourse, relevant to scholars researching the various aspects of sustainable economic development, this book's findings also have important implications for policymakers, development specialists, and economists in both developed and developing countries.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書提供讀者對可持續發展路徑的整體框架有全面的理解,並闡述各國目前的現狀、所面臨的主要挑戰以及促進可持續發展目標(SDGs)的潛在途徑。通過連接不同的SDGs,本書的章節集合揭示了政策上的多重關係和影響,平衡了經濟、社會和環境發展的維度,在SDGs的背景下對高收入和低收入國家進行了定性區分。在此過程中,本書強調,隨著全球極端貧困和生計問題的迅速改善,經濟和社會差距以前所未有的速度擴大。本書揭示了經濟進步(通過人均收入的變化)與實現每個SDG的成就和挫折之間的聯繫。除了在社會科學論述中的地位外,這本書的研究結果對於發展政策制定者、發展專家和經濟學家在發達國家和發展中國家都具有重要意義。
