“…These ideas have been further elaborated and developed by Martha Nussbaum, who talks about the importance of human dignity as a foundation for living (and economics). Nussbaum identifies multiple values as essential to life, including life itself, bodily health, bodily integrity, the senses, imagination, thought, freedom of emotions, and practical reason [78,104]. Riane Eisler, a long-term proponent of partnership societies, argues for an economics of care that embeds relationship and connectedness deeply in it as well [16].…”

“…In contrast to neoliberal beliefs, societies do in fact exist and their contextual and cultural differences matter. Further, Turner highlights that, beyond basic economic needs, people need "satisfactory human relationships, communities, freedoms, and opportunities" [78] (see also [53,55,103,104]).…”

“…The precept of equitable markets and trade implies fully internalized costs of production and service that are reflected in fully-costed pricing of goods and services. Internalization of costs and full cost accounting recognizes the reality that both societies, particularly the poor and marginalized, and the natural environment otherwise bear the significant portions of the costs [78]. Full costing of production of goods and services-just pricing [112]-represents a way of bringing business and economic activities into harmony with nature's abundance-and constraints, since businesses would no longer be able to externalize costs onto society or nature [111,113].…”

This article offers a framework for economics that affirms life to replace the flawed yet dominant paradigm of neoliberal economics. Building an argument for a new set of core memes—core ideas that are the building blocks of stories and narratives (like neoliberalism)—this article presents a proposed set of economics memes that support life drawn from a wide range of sources. The framework’s six memes are: stewardship of the whole; co-creating collective value; governance through cosmopolitan-localism; regeneration, reciprocity, and circularity; relationship and connectedness; and equitable markets and trade, all of which are consistent in supporting other recent economics framings like ‘doughnut economics’.

“…Moreover, many coastal communities remain politically and economically marginalized, which leads to conflict over access to the resources and benefits of coastal areas (Newton et al 2007, http://www.ecologyandsociety.org/vol19/iss1/art27/ Brown et al 2008). This has been exacerbated by the increased vulnerability of such communities to the impacts of ecosystem degradation and environmental change (Brown et al 2008), and by the distorted way in which coastal ecosystem services are distributed and degraded, the costs of which are borne disproportionately by the world's poor (Newton et al 2007, Srinivasan et al 2008, Turner and Fisher 2008.…”

ABSTRACT. The concept of benefit sharing has seen growing adoption in recent years by a variety of sectors. However, its conceptual underpinnings, definitions, and framework remain poorly articulated and developed. We aim to help address this gap by presenting a new conceptual approach for enhancing understanding about benefit sharing and its implementation. We use the coast as a lens through which the analysis is framed because of the intricate governance challenges which coastal social-ecological systems present, the increasing development and exploitation pressures on these systems, and the growing need to improve understanding about the way in which greater equity and reduced inequalities could reduce conflicts, protect coastal ecosystems, and ensure greater social justice. Key elements of the framework include the range of actors involved, the natural resources they access and use, the interventions introduced to redistribute benefits, and the benefits and losses that result from these interventions. The framework underscores the importance of process in determining who gets what, as well as the wider institutional, political, social, and economic context. Power relations and imbalances underpin many of these elements and remain the central reason for benefits being distributed in the way that they are. The framework has relevance and application for coastal livelihoods, rural governance, and resource sustainability in a context in which community rights are increasingly undermined through land grabbing, unequal power relations, and externally driven development interventions.

“…Studies that estimate the financial value of ES facilitate the appreciation of services in widely understood terms, but this approach has well recognised limitations including the fact that financial values under-represent benefits to the poor as they have less capacity to pay than rich people 21– 23 . Therefore, it is important to explore alternative approaches to identifying spatial priorities for ES management that circumvent some of the limitations of using financial values.…”

Identifying spatial priorities for protecting ecosystem services

Priorities for protecting ecosystem services must be identified to ensure future human well-being. Approaches to broad-scale spatial prioritization of ecosystem services are becoming increasingly popular and are a vital precursor to identifying locations where further detailed analyses of the management of ecosystem services is required (e.g., examining trade-offs among management actions). Prioritization approaches often examine the spatial congruence between priorities for protecting ecosystem services and priorities for protecting biodiversity; therefore, the spatial prioritization method used is crucial because it will influence the alignment of service protection and conservation goals. While spatial prioritization of ecosystem services and prioritization for conservation share similarities, such as the need to document threats and costs, the former differs substantially from the latter owing to the requirement to measure the following components: supply of services; availability of human-derived alternatives to service provision; capacity to meet beneficiary demand; and site dependency in and scale of service delivery. We review studies that identify broad-scale spatial priorities for managing ecosystem services and demonstrate that researchers have used different approaches and included various measures for identifying priorities, and most studies do not consider all of the components listed above. We describe a conceptual framework for integrating each of these components into spatial prioritization of ecosystem services and illustrate our approach using a worked example for water provision. A fuller characterization of the biophysical and social context for ecosystem services that we call for should improve future prioritization and the identification of locations where ecosystem-service management is especially important or cost effective.
