Peter Victor is an economist who has worked on environmental issues for over 40 years as an academic\, public servant and consultant. Peter Victor challenges the priority that rich countries continue to give to economic growth as an over-arching objective of economic policy. The challenge is based on a critical analysis of the literature on environmental and resource limits to growth\, on the disconnect between higher incomes and happiness\, and on the failure of economic growth to meet other key economic\, social and environmental policy objectives. \;
