SUMMARY:IGIDR Seminar: " What levels of development can humanity sustainably aspire to? "
DESCRIPTION: \nAbstract:-\nWhat levels of development can the Global South sustainably aspire to? We argue that positioning Nordic countries as the leaders of "sustainable development"\, as is often done\, poses a serious dilemma: international adoption of their lifestyles risks severely breaching planetary biophysical limits\, while non-adoption risks perpetuating developmental inequality. We  introduce a revised conceptual framework for “sustainable development” emphasising scalability as a pivotal facet. Our results highlight Panama\, Costa Rica\, and Sri Lanka as having achieved high levels of social progress with low environmental pressures\, representing a more realistic aspiration for the rest of humanity.
