Common Future

Established ethical norms and standards are challenged by the changed use of the outfields (utmark). This chapter undertakes some basic ethical reflections of sustainable governance, strong sustainability and intergenerational justice with respect to the outfields. Basic assumptions about the quality of the outfields are presented. Most importantly, it is argued that sustainability should take its point of departure in a concept of strong sustainability, which implies that the outfields should be conceived of as commons rather than commodities. A critique with a Lockean, liberal understanding of natural resources is put forth, aimed at showing why an individual and anthropocentric framework is insufficient for true sustainable governance. The main reason for this is that nature and natural resources embed values that are complementary to, but not interchangeable with, economic values. A couple of examples of contested commons are presented, in order to demonstrate why commons rich in natural resources must be governed as global property. Fundamentally, this is due to intergenerational justice, which has received worldwide support ever since the UN report Our Common Future was published in 1987.

Current Paradigm

Perceiving nature by contemporary social and economical systems, including the domination nowadays of capitalism and socialism, has led to an ecological crisis. There are at least several characteristics of traditional economical theories that make it impossible to realize the sustainable development of the anthroposphere, i.e. the view of a human being, the violation of rules of inter- and intragenerational justice, the way of valuing the environment combined with the underestimation of the significance of natural resources, the belief that technology is able to substitute all natural resources crucial to humanity, planning the short-term goals. Qe attitudes in economics appeared which demand replacing the current paradigm with a new one – that of strong sustainability. The characteristic feature of the economics of sustainable development is observing the ethical rules of inter- and intergenerational justice and responsibility.

Given the demographic realities in the developing world, it is not possible to solve the problems of poverty in these countries following the neoclassical model of economic growth. Since the majority of people are ruralites in these countries, the focus should be on rural development directly rather than on waiting for the benefits to trickle down to the rural poor. What is needed is to improve the quality of life and productivity of the small-holders or landless whose livelihood is based on natural resources which are depleting and require urgent attention. More options should be available for the rural people in their own area.

ABSTRACT                    Local Excellence (KL) is a process and realization of increasing the value of a regional potential so that it becomes a product /service or other work of high value, is unique and has a comparative advantage. The quality of the process and the realization of local excellence is greatly influenced by the available resources, which are better known as 7 M, namely Man, Money, Machine, Material, Method, Marketing and Management. The concept of developing local excellence is inspired by various potentials, namely the potential of natural resources (SDA), human resources (HR), geographical, cultural and historical. Natural resources (SDA) are the potential contained in the earth, water, and aerospace that can be utilized for various life purposes. Human resources (HR) are defined as humans with all the potential they have that can be utilized and developed to become social creatures that are adaptive and transformative and able to utilize the natural potential around them in a balanced and sustainable way. Geographic objects include, among others, formal objects and material objects. Culture is attitude, while the source of attitude is culture. Local excellence in historical concepts is historical potential in the form of relics of ancient objects and traditions that are still preserved today.

Natural resources play as vital inputs for economic activities, mainly in developing countries. However, massive use of natural resources puts more pressure on the environment and as the result, the quality of environment is deteriorating. The body of economic literature have shown that income is associated with harm to the natural environment. The relationship between income and degradation of the environment is known as the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) hypothesis. Previous studies of EKC hypothesis in Indonesia are still limited and the results are inconclusive due to different results. Therefore, the aim of this study is to present a new insight of the existence of EKC in Indonesia using different method. Most of previous studies of EKC in Indonesia employ Autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) method, while this study uses data panel regression method from 33 provinces in Indonesia during 2012 to 2018. The result confirms the existence of EKC hypothesis in Indonesia. This study also estimates the turning point, a level of income that starts give positive impact on the environment. This result gives new insight to the existing literature. The policy implication for policymakers are straightforward, i.e. improve wealth of the society through higher income for the protection of the environment.

The synergy between rural and urban values is depicted as the source for local and global sustainability. This paper asserts that the folklore tradition of the rural people of Bangladesh promotes sustainability through their respect for nature, spiritual education and the common future of generations. Such values are embedded in the country’s economy, schools, media and other institutions where these messages are taught, articulated and promoted. The positive spiritual dispositions of rural people in Bangladesh towards natural calamities allow them to interpret such events as nature's tools for managing sustainable liveability. Bangladeshi rural communities also enjoy self-reliant living without destroying the country's base of natural resources in contrast to the city dwellers. Thus, the paper aims to establish that the implements for achieving global sustainability could be embedded in “rural modernization” – a way of blending rural values and folklore in city life.
