projet de recherche

Protecting the environment: for the benefit or at the expense of development?

The purpose of this project is to analyze the way in which environmental issues relate to development issues in a global framework that takes into account work (and therefore unemployment), consumption, quality and ownership structure, in order to investigate how and to what extent it is possible to protect the environment while ensuring harmonious development.
