This book is concerned with how current decisions about consumption
and saving have an impact upon future well-being, and in particular how
current measurable indicators can shed light upon the prospects for future
well-being. It is concerned, in short, with the concept and measurement of
sustainable development. This task is beset by conceptual and empirical
challenges. Yet at the heart of this book lies a very practical concern – if
sustainability is to mean anything at all it needs to be measurable. We
feel a sense of urgency in this task. Because current systems of economic
indicators do not clearly signal whether an economy is on a sustainable
path, policy errors based on these indicators will continue to be made and
perpetuated. Moreover, these errors have a long reach, since they affect
not only current well-being but also the well-being of those living in the
future. Our book builds upon a body of knowledge linking growth theory,
asset accounting and indicators of sustainable development. Moreover,
what we are particularly interested in is the empirical application of this
accumulated knowledge.
