Routledge Economic Growth and Sustainable Housing Book

Explore the complex connection between economic development and environmental preservation in Economic Growth and Sustainable Housing: An Uneasy Relationship. Published by Routledge as part of the Ontological Explorations Critical Realism series, this text examines whether it is truly possible to separate environmental damage from economic expansion. Through a detailed study of the housing sector, the author challenges the idea that perpetual growth can exist alongside long-term sustainability. By using critical realism to structure the investigation, the book provides both theoretical and empirical perspectives on the difficulty of decoupling growth from negative environmental impacts. This work is an essential resource for those studying the tension between modern economic demands and the necessity of protecting our planet's resources.
