Titre : Nicholas Georgescu-Roegen’s bioeconomics: a new alliance between the economy and the biosphere Auteurs : Sylvie Ferrari, Revue : Entropy: Thermodynamics – Energy – Environment – Economy Numéro : Issue 2 Volume : 5 Date : 2024/05/22 DOI : 10.21494/ISTE.OP.2024.1171 ISSN : 2634-1476 Résumé : Bioeconomics is a new approach to the relationship between the economy and the environment developed by N. Georgescu-Roegen (1906-1994), a great economist of the 20th century who was also a mathematician, philosopher and historian of science. The economy, as a sub-system of the biosphere, is understood in a global ecological context. It is also inseparable from the historical dimension of the development of societies, given the limited access to a stock of resources (energy and matter) taken from the environment. The ultimate aim of this original approach is to reconcile economic development with ecological constraints and to lead the economy towards sufficiency. Éditeur : ISTE OpenScience
