Sustainable Development Economics 4030-SDE
The main objective of this course is to clarify and specify the idea of sustainable development from the economic point of view. The course starts from basic neoclassical economics and basic ecological economics. The following lectures are focused on: the theories of man-made and natural capital, the management of renewable and non-renewable resources, and a brief introduction to economic valuation. The central part of the lecture form two sections: economic instruments with a special attention paid to instruments recommended for sustainable development, and economic policy strategies supporting sustainable development.
