On the eclectic concept of sustainability

We define “sustainable development” simply by the preservation of the productive capacity of the economy which can be expressed by the setting-up of a free capital shock-wave. Using the soliton theory the stability characteristics of such a wave can be derived. With reference to this non-linear mathematics the presently electic concept of sustainability could be reduced to its core, namely, the maintenance of inter-generational equity via a stable capital wave.
