The article discusses theories and practices related to growth and degrowth, questioning the conventional notion of development and proposing different approaches to achieve human well-being. Concepts such as the doughnut economy, circular economy, and dematerialized growth are mentioned. The importance of implementing these ideas in countries facing difficulties in meeting basic needs, such as Venezuela, which has experienced economic decline and massive emigration of its inhabitants, is highlighted. The need to properly manage resources, promote inclusive economic growth, and adopt recycling and sustainable development practices is raised, as well as diversifying the economy and harnessing the country's tourism potential.

Within the framework of objective 9 of sustainable development, it was postulated that innovation is one of the fundamental engines of economic growth, in this context, the present study econometrically determined, the incidence of human capital on the total number of innovations in methods, goods or services, for 101 Colombian companies in 2018. Taking the data from the Industrial Technological Innovation and Development Survey, carried out by DANE; A simultaneous quantile regression model was estimated, making a total of 20 repetitions, which allowed standard errors to be obtained by randomly resampling the data. And after adding control variables, it was found that the hiring of personnel with doctorates, masters, specialization and technologists to carry out ACTI 2018; The resources of other companies and the own resources invested in scientific, technological and innovation activities are significant variables in all quantiles and present a positive relationship with the total number of innovations in methods, goods or services. While the number of undergraduates hired by the organization, who participated in carrying out ACTI, were significant in the 25th and 50th quantile and increased innovation in organizations. Finally, the number of cases in which high complexity was used in the design is a significant variable in the 25th and 75th quantiles and presents a positive relationship with the dependent variable.

Tourism has an enormous capacity to generate economic growth and boost the labor market, but contributing to sustainable development is one of the main challenges today. The slow philosophy approach advocates slow tourism as a responsible and sustainable way of life and consumption, and the Spanish Cittaslow network has adopted this approach. The objective of this research is to analyze progress in compliance with the principles of slow tourism in the Spanish Cittaslow network. The applied methodology consists of a comparative analysis of the tourism offerings communicated on the official websites of the Spanish Cittaslow municipalities, in light of slow tourism principles. The findings show that the 12 municipalities that have registered in the Citta Slow network in Spain are relevant in terms of historical heritage and natural resources, but only 30% take advantage of the uniqueness of being a Cittaslow to systematically promote their tourism. Publication of its Cittaslow indicators could accelerate progress. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Mining and sustainable development are opposed for three fundamental reasons: mineral resources are not renewable, their irrational exploitation does not guarantee their use by future generations, and the practice of mining attacks ecological systems. This article defends the idea that mining should be open to a concept of development that not only covers economic growth but also social and cultural progress as a condition for an effective and rational economy-ecology relationship in decision making. For this, the mining company needs an effective and rational management as an environmental business policy in which the application of legal-administrative norms for the execution of good mining practices is not enough. It is essential the application of knowledge, norms, values and moral principles that result in the effectiveness of good environmental practices, so it is urgent the implementation of an environmental code of ethics, of deontological character, that provides the miner with knowledge, skills and procedures in the work activity that favors the formation of individual responsibility towards nature and the social commitment of their work.

A neo-kaleckian model is proposed to analyze the bidirectional relationship between growth and income distribution. To do this, the price equation of Kalecki (1971) is modified and the model of Bhaduri and Marglin (1990) is extended. If the growth is wage-led, then the income path is shown to be cyclical. In contrast, if it is profit-driven, it is sustained. In this last scenario, income is concentrated in profits because the profit rate is higher than the growth rate. Finally, it is argued that if the state redistributes income in a greater amount than the market concentrates it, wage-led growth can be sustained. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article identifies the differences regarding concepts associated with development, such as sustainability or sustainable environmental development. accounts for the debate between the conceptions of economic growth of the neoclassical economic-political approaches, and the criticisms of these approaches by Georgescu-Roegen, Rene Passet, Enrique Leff, Manfred Mc Neef, and Philippe Smith, as well as Edgar Morin's considerations on the lessons of the pandemic. These reflections are taken as a corollary to address the issue of sustainable territorial development, assigning a preponderant role to the environmental dimension and to the strategies of intercultural education.

This document analyzes the first global milestones that promoted concern for the environment and sustainable development from a perspective of economic history. Three main milestones are mentioned: the publication of "The Limits to Growth" in 1972, the Stockholm Conference in 1972, and the creation of the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) in 1972. The "Our Common Future" report of 1987, which introduces the concept of sustainable development, is also highlighted. The analysis shows how the economic context influenced the importance given to economic growth and poverty reduction compared to environmental impact. The document seeks to provide a historical perspective on this transition towards a more balanced approach between economic growth and environmental care. [Extracted from the article]

The world in which we live is seriously affected by the ecological crisis, which dates back to a defined historical trajectory and elements that have led to a planetary crisis that affects everyone equally. It is part of the human mistakes when it comes to expanding and expanding economic growth, based on anthropocentric, utilitarian ideals and the accumulation of capital. For this reason, the work aims to analyze the ecological problem from a historical perspective, as well as from an approach determined by the birth of ecological ethics. In this sense, the importance of environmental education is emphasized, to correct the centuries of corrupt practices towards nature, promoting consonant strategies to achieve development in terms of sustainability; In the same way, the results of various international meetings, forums and congresses are indicated, whose purpose is to present a unified statement, with concrete actions to save the environment and present and future life, promoting sustainability and sustainable development.

One of the main concerns of the International Community nowadays is the achievement of sustainable development, an aspect that is reflected in the 2030 Agenda of the United Nations General Assembly. Within the Objectives proposed by the Agenda, sustainable economic growth and decent work for all appear hand in hand, evidencing that all measures and policies that pursue greater economic growth worldwide must protect, at the same time, workers' core labour rights. Given that international trade is an engine for the economic growth of the countries that participate on it and poverty reduction, while contributing to the promotion of sustainable development, it is imperative to ask how the multilateral international trading system should adapt to the Sustainable Development Goals, or, in other words, how the World Trade Organization, a multilateral international organization mired in a deep institutional crisis, must be reformed to adapt to the postulates of the 2030 Agenda.

Economic growth, which has made possible an increase in levels of well-being, has had as an immediate consequence environmental degradation through net consumption of nature and pollution. Thus, the current development pattern is eroding the very bases that sustain it. The purpose of this document is to present the contributions made by the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (eclac) over the last decade to the discussion on the relationship between development and environment, the most recent innovation of which has been the introduction of the three gaps model. Based on this model, only one path will allow full compliance with the 2030 Agenda and the Paris Agreement. Moving towards this scenario requires an induced recomposition of the sectoral structure made possible through public policies favorable to the sectors driving the transition. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The 2020 World Cities Report indicates that economic growth and urban investments do not automatically reduce poverty and inequality in cities. Social and economic vulnerability in cities has increased, with 55% of overcrowding in urban households in precarious conditions in Latin America and the Caribbean. Sustainable Development Goal 11 seeks to ensure access to adequate, safe, and affordable housing and basic services, as well as improve slums. In Cuba, the program to transform precarious habitats is being revitalized to improve living conditions for the population. [Extracted from the article]

Barbados ha emprendido una iniciativa audaz para ecologizar su economía y avanzó considerablemente en algunos sectores económicos (como la energía). Este artículo investiga hasta qué punto las pequeñas y medianas empresas (pymes), uno de sus segmentos más grandes de la actividad económica, han adoptado iniciativas ecológicas, y los factores que las han llevado a hacerlo. Se estima un modelo probit usando una base de datos a nivel de las empresas extraída de la base de datos Productivity, Technology, Innovation in the Caribbean (PROTEqIN), que gestiona Compete Caribbean. Las pymes se han quedado rezagadas en la adopción de estrategias ecológicas con respecto a las empresas más grandes. Una de las principales limitaciones era la insuficiente disponibilidad de apoyo y conocimientos técnicos dentro de estas empresas. Se concluye que, para que la isla tenga éxito en la ecologización de sus pymes, se tendrá que mejorar su acceso al apoyo técnico. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article analyzes the causal determinants of income distribution in Peru (IDP) during the period 1985-2017. There is empirical evidence suggesting that the GDP per capita and the slowed and unsustained economic growth of the economy have negatively impacted IDP. This can be conceptualized as a W-shaped causal relationship, in contrast to Kuznets' inverted-U hypothesis, thus reflecting a dual economy with productivity differences, low levels of human capital, and institutional weakness. This article contributes to the debate by making several recommendations, namely: balancing the market-state-society relationship with free-market and non-rentier economic policies, human capital investment policies, innovation and technology, and strengthening the social capital (geared towards endogenous economic growth) of inclusive and sustainable human development.

The article asserts a foundational relationship between the Potterian bioethical vision and the role of sustainability. Considering that V.R. Potter did not develop conceptually how and from what approach the sustainability of humanity should be understood, it becomes necessary to show such conceptual development. Thus, Potter's bioethical vision could be rethought and updated to face the challenge of humanity nowadays. In this order of ideas, it is proposed to analyze descriptively the theoretical approaches and the conceptual extensions of the concept of sustainability to recognize in what sense they contribute in the construction of an acceptable survival for humanity, in terms of global bioethics. To this end, the theoretical theme of sustainable development is presented, highlighting its systemic and intergenerational component, while criticizing its economic growth structure and its incompatibility with the Potterian bioethical vision. Afterwards, the alternative proposal of eco-development and environmental rationality is presented, as important elements to broaden the sustainability paradigm. Finally, it concludes with an integration of elements of both theoretical themes as a starting point for thinking about sustainability from a bioethical perspective. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The debate on "being", product from the nature or the social environment, still exists. In this sense, entrepreneurship may or may not be a result from a structured training mechanism. For this reason, the objective of this document is to examine the role of the entrepreneurial education in the university environment and its impact on the intention to undertake different projects. A documentary search was carried out, where 190 research articles were compiled, integrating a bibliometric analysis of 101 of them, from four databases. Discrepancies were determined between gender and contextual aspects; likewise, the productivity of the issues involved proved to be of greater relevance in English; with greater European publications surpassing those of the American continent. As for the findings, endogenous and exogenous elements influence the intention, refuting the indoctrinated perspective of the entrepreneurship as an innate attribute and showing developable elements to forge certain qualities.

The purpose of this work is to reflect on the social responsibility of universities in relation to the fulfillment of the Sustainable Development Goals. We assume that the substantive activities of the university: teaching, research and dissemination of knowledge, give meaning to their daily work and express their social commitment. The reference of this work is the new paradigm of university management associated with the social responsibility of these institutions. We recover the theoretical reflection on the concept of development, emphasizing its multidimensional, integral and progressive nature. We conceived that universities play a central role in the set of alliances and conducting efforts to achieve the sustainable development goals. They are actors with broad social recognition, with a broad convening capacity among the different sectors of society. Its educational work is a multiplying factor with a broad impact on the fulfillment of the objectives of sustainable development. In addition, they have the ability to specify objectives and goals for economic growth, well-being, social justice, equity, inclusion and care for the environment. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

En este trabajo se examina el crecimiento experimentado por un conjunto de países latinoamericanos (1980-2004) mediante el análisis de la productividad total de los factores (PTF) con una doble perspectiva: maximizar el nivel de producción (PIB) y minimizar las emisiones de CO2 generadas en el proceso productivo. Con este propósito se construyen índices de productividad de Malmquist. Asimismo, se emplean funciones kernel de densidad para poder analizar la convergencia (o divergencia) de la eficiencia estimada. Los resultados obtenidos permiten señalar que la incorporación de factores medioambientales en la medición de la eficiencia y el cambio productivo hace posible que algunos países de la región vean mejorar sus estimaciones de manera significativa en comparación con las obtenidas por métodos más tradicionales.
