Once again, thanks to everyone who responded to my query about literature/potential student readings related to the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals. As always, members of these lists were extremely helpful and made putting together a new lecture in this context much easier and much more coherent! Per my promise, below please find the compiled results. wil

Wolfgang Sachs edited The Development Dictionary in 1992. I have its 2007 edition and find much within it to still be salient nearly 25 years later. I'd suggest that the chapters on environment, market, needs, poverty, progress, resources, and technology are every bit as relevant today as they were then. http://www.scribd.com/doc/34321325/Sachs-The-Development-Dictionary-A-Guide-to-Knowledge-as-Power#scribd I'm sure something else will come to mind later but this is a start. -- Peter Buckland Academic Programs Fellow Curator of the Field Guide to Teaching Sustainability Penn State's Sustainability Institute You might be interested in http://sdg.earthsystemgovernance.org/ - the news & opinion section also includes a number of (critical) op-eds and the recent publication section covers the literature on governance + SDGs quite well.
