The main sustainability paradigms (i.e., weak sustainability, a-growth, de-growth, strong sustainability, linear economy, circular economy) will be discussed in terms of the environmental ethics which characterize them. The main assessment and decision methodologies (i.e., Cost-Benefit Analysis, Multi-Criterion Analysis, Life-Cycle Assessment) will be presented in terms of the sustainability paradigms which typify them. The structure of this course can be summarized as follows:
- Environmental Ethics
