When does modernization in mountains lead to sustainable development? Post-growth, common-welfare, and transition debates are changing the modernization paradigm that influences development in mountains and elsewhere. How can industrialization and entrepreneurship, social mobility and consumption, urbanization, and governance be made to serve the norms of justice and environmental integrity in mountains? Mountain Research and Development is seeking papers that either present well-validated experiences of sustainable modernization processes or analyse the impacts of modernization from a systems science perspective. Notices of intent are due by 16 January 2015, full papers by 18 June 2015.
