Resumo

Algo importante mudou o mundo há 50 anos. Foi no final da década de 1960 e ao longo da década de 1970 quando a realização dos limites de crescimento que se aproximavam rapidamente desceu como um martelo, dando um forte golpe nos paradigmas políticos e sócio-econômicos do mundo dos negócios, como o habitual. É claro que economistas clássicos como Malthus já tinham soado um aviso 150 anos antes. Então, os avanços científicos e tecnológicos adiaram o inevitável. Finalmente, os pensadores do Clube de Roma e duas crises petrolíferas dissiparam a ilusão de crescimento ilimitado em um pequeno planeta, com a controvérsia sendo retomada de novo no século 21.
