(1997) Systems for sustainability, Dordrecht, Springer.
Securing a sustainable future for human societies requires a radical rethink of the nature of political activity. The dominant concept of politics is as problem-solving, an idea derived from a misapplication of the methods of technology, with its undiluted concentration on the immediate desires of the present. This way of thinking has played a major part in creating the distinctive characteristics of the developed world, whose future sustainability, like that of the rest of the planet, is now in doubt.
