This insightful book examines how the policies resulting from the Neoliberal and Research and Innovation paradigms have evolved, and how they can be extended and reformed to respond to present and future environmental constraints.

This is an experience-derived and evidence-based analysis of how sustainable development impacts the transformation of the economy and how the business environment influences economic transformation in the light of the sustainable development principles.

This book presents a novel approach to explaining the ability of cities to combat depopulation through the prism of urban leadership quality. It benefits from domestic empirical research, international case studies, and a survey of valuable practices and provides a new interpretation of the processes associated with these trends.
