Abstract

Through a consideration of issues related to accountability and gaps in literature related to free trade arguments and environmental issues, this volume aims to address such issues as:

- Why anticipated and expected success was not generated as expected in previous protocols, conferences and climate conventions such as the Kyoto Protocol; - Major and fundamental challenges to environmental sustainability - expanding beyond the scope of traditional concerns which are affiliated to free trade. - How the concepts and definitions attributed to the term “ sustainable development” has expanded over the years to embrace more concepts and actors which were not catered for in original concepts and definitions - as well as their relevance to the evolving need to embrace non governmental actors and organisations in achieving sustainable development.

It will also consider “inconsistencies and inadequacies of policy prescriptions” - as highlighted by Lele, S. (1991). “Sustainable Development: A Critical Review” World Development, Vol 19 No 6 pp 607-621.

Keywords: Sustainable development, free trade agreements, fragile states, entrepreneurship programs, state aids, accountability, non governmental organisations
