| Abstract: | The prevailing patterns of economic growth are ecologically not viable. A new economics policy is likely to be needed. The notion of "sustainable development" will have to be incorporated into economic theory with repercussions for, among other things, /1/ the treatment of natural resurces as factors of production, /2/ valuation theory, /3/ the evaluation of market forces. The Dutch abetement policy regarding acid rain is analysed in this respect. |
