Abstract

The concept of sustainability appears simple but is difficult to define. It can be at once an idea, a lifestyle, a production mode, or a way of “consuming”. As John Huckle writes, “…Like liberty, justice and democracy, sustainability has no single and agreed meaning. It takes on different meaning within different political ideologies and programmes underpinned by different kind of knowledge, values and philosophy” (Huchle 1996)
