The Anthropocene era has brought about socio-economic, environmental, and political crises as a result of human-induced global warming and the rapid acceleration of human intervention in ecosystems. Sustainable development is the response to these crises. This book introduces readers to current debates on sustainable development and provides a holistic and multidisciplinary approach.
Regional integration and supranational institutions are fundamental for sustainable development. The democratization of the international system requires a new multilateralism. Global problems such as demography, economic ideology of unlimited growth, the prevailing technocratic paradigm, consumerism, waste, fossil fuels, industrial food production, use of fertilizers, water management, and climate change are discussed. The importance of multilateral agreements for security, sustainable peace, and development is explored.
This planetary crisis can be solved through international cooperation based on the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. This book is a valuable resource for students, researchers, and policymakers interested in sustainable development and multilateral diplomacy. It provides a comprehensive and interdisciplinary understanding of the challenges and opportunities facing our planet in the Anthropocene era.
