Beschreibung

This book explores the foundational principles of the circular economy, promoting sustainable strategies such as reducing, reusing, recycling, and redesigning in order to extend the life cycle of consumable goods and significantly reduce waste generation. It contends that conventional approaches in engineering and management or economics are increasingly insufficient to address contemporary sustainability challenges, largely due to the growing complexity and interdependence of social, economic, and environmental factors. By foregrounding the intersection of globalization, commodification, and the circular economy, the book seeks to foster an enabling environment in which economic and social actors are encouraged to adopt sustainability-oriented policies and practices. Drawing on interdisciplinary perspectives, it aims to strengthen and protect resilient social and cultural systems while critically engaging with the broader questions of global governance. In doing so, it carefully examines the social and ecological consequences of globalization and their implications for sustainable development. The book functions as a collaborative platform for scholars, practitioners, professionals, and policymakers, bringing together theoretical insights, empirical research, and illustrative case studies. It unpacks the complex relationships between globalization and global environmental and socioeconomic challenges, prompting readers to reflect on questions of responsibility, accountability, and impact within the governance of globalization. Central to the book are critical inquiries such as: by whom, for whom, and with what social and ecological consequences does global governance operate. By addressing these questions, the book emerges as a comprehensive resource for understanding the intertwined dynamics of globalization, commodification, and the circular economy. Through the application of scientific methods and measurable indicators, it equips academics and policymakers across disciplines with practical tools for designing and implementing policies aimed at a sustainable future. Ultimately, the book stands as an essential reference for those seeking a deeper and more nuanced understanding of the globalized and commercialized dimensions of the circular economy, encouraging collective action toward a more sustainable world.
