Jeffrey Sachs: The Path to Sustainable Development

University Lecture given by Jeffrey Sachs, Feb 25, 2014
The challenge of sustainable development combining economic progress, social inclusion, and global environmental sustainability is unique to our time. Problems such as climate change and rising social inequality are pressing, complex and novel.
They require new tools of analysis and new methods of solution, from the local to the global scales. Jeff Sachs discusses sustainable development as an emerging scholarly discipline and as an urgent policy imperative, and describes the evolving role of universities and other social institutions in addressing these complex challenges.

Mr. Sachs and his free market fundamentalism made a mess in my country in the 80s. He stopped hyperinflation but with a high human cost

Get this video from my university professor which ask us to make a summary from this video for our individual asingment... Hard for me to understand the content.....

[@dilla1212]

yeah..true, btw have you finish the summary..cant find the main point of the talk.

[@asmaulnurulausah3369]

seriously.....!!! Totally same here... but i'm trying to crack my mind to find the key points.....

[@rd264]

Well, start with the caption- obviously Sach's key point is to help the poor and so on, and he focuses on listing surface phenomena, like the mainstream press, listing multiple ongoing "interconnected" regional and historical stresses and changes eg digital and tech revolutions. Why is there inequity, poverty, excess wealth, the 2008 rip off-the things Occupy raised? He appears to be studiously avoiding the answer Occupy gave-- look at the politics decisions underlying these problems that Occupy raised. See Chomsky, Vidal, etc.
