The contribution by Scerri (2012) adds a political theory perspective to the thread and relates the social dimension to ecology and ecosystem functioning : “Rather than viewing ends as a technical problem of economic efficiency […] the approach reframes ‘sustainability’ as an
ethico-moral problem of the social constitution of relationships within the ecosphere” (p. 9). By addressing four dimensions — the ecological, economic, political and cultural domains — Scerri (2012) argues that one can rethink “what efficiency aimed at justice might look like from
within the perspective of a disciplinary critique of unsustainable development”
(Scerri, 2012, p. 8).
