Geographic perspectives on sustainability: Towards a conceptual framework
Understanding sustainability poses conceptual and practical challenges due to its myriad interpretations. Geographers have endeavored to refine the concept from various perspectives by drawing from their environmental research tradition. However, a comprehensive examination of geographical contributions to the sustainability discourse remains elusive. This article fills this gap by scrutinizing how sustainability has been conceptualized across diverse geographic epistemologies over the past two decades through a literature review. Furthermore, it proposes a novel multiscale conceptual framework for land use change dynamics. The review underscores geography's reliance on external theories to grapple with sustainability and advocates for a robust conceptual framework to deepen comprehension. This framework elucidates the relative significance and intricate interplay among sustainability dimensions within the complex nexus of social and environmental subsystems, which could help with territorial management.
期刊介绍:
Environmental Development provides a future oriented, pro-active, authoritative source of information and learning for researchers, postgraduate students, policymakers, and managers, and bridges the gap between fundamental research and the application in management and policy practices. It stimulates the exchange and coupling of traditional scientific knowledge on the environment, with the experiential knowledge among decision makers and other stakeholders and also connects natural sciences and social and behavioral sciences. Environmental Development includes and promotes scientific work from the non-western world, and also strengthens the collaboration between the developed and developing world. Further it links environmental research to broader issues of economic and social-cultural developments, and is intended to shorten the delays between research and publication, while ensuring thorough peer review. Environmental Development also creates a forum for transnational communication, discussion and global action.
Environmental Development is open to a broad range of disciplines and authors. The journal welcomes, in particular, contributions from a younger generation of researchers, and papers expanding the frontiers of environmental sciences, pointing at new directions and innovative answers.
All submissions to Environmental Development are reviewed using the general criteria of quality, originality, precision, importance of topic and insights, clarity of exposition, which are in keeping with the journal''s aims and scope.
