Summary This book aims to present a reality view for Papua New Guinea based on many years of first-hand field work and research accounts. It further assesses sustainability in the light of 47,000 years of a self-sustained type of civilization without bad global impacts. This book contrasts the modern sustainable development failures from the colonial times onwards, as promoted by the western world, namely Australia, the UK, EU and the U.S as well as Japan and now, China, in times of globalization, Trumpism and royal governance (Papua New Guinea is still part of the British Dominion and of the Antarctic Treaty etc). This assessment and book is the first of its kind also employing modern data analysis, Landscape Ecology principles (patterns and processes, telecoupling) and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) with Open Access data focusing on ecological economics, marxism, socialism and contrasting it with current capitalism and neoliberalism that Papua New Guinea is fully exposed to. Throughout the 31 book chapters various aspects are covered how a further insistence on the new Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and so-called Development Aid will result in unwanted side effects and perverse outcomes for Papua New Guinea and for the world in times of wider global change and unprecedented man-made crisis Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and index Notes Online resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed May 5, 2023) Subject Sustainable development -- Papua New Guinea Globalization -- Papua New Guinea Civilization -- Foreign influences Ecology Economic history Globalization Sustainable development SUBJECT Papua New Guinea -- Environmental conditions Papua New Guinea -- Economic conditions Papua New Guinea -- Civilization -- Foreign influences Subject Papua New Guinea Form Electronic book ISBN 9783031202629 3031202627
