These papers, written by staff members of the Vice Presidency for Environmentally Sustainable Development (ESD) in the World Bank, broaden the concept of development by integrating the approaches of sociologists, ecologists, and economists. They also address ways of measuring progress toward sustainability and incorporating these issues into overall development planning. The final chapter summarizes the conclusions of the World Bank's annual report on the environment, Making Development Sustainable: The World Bank Group and the Environment, Fiscal 1994.Cernea, Michael M. is the author of 'Sociology, Anthropology, and Development: An Annotated Bibliography of World Bank Publications, 1975-1993' with ISBN 9780821327814 and ISBN 082132781X.
