拉沃斯设计的安全和公正的空间框架呼吁世界各国在保持地球界限的同时实现社会福利的关键最低门槛。利用奥尼尔埃塔尔提供的社会和生物物理指标数据,本文件认为,通过借鉴现有的示范模式和采取更公平的分配政策,在理论上有可能在全球范围内为贫穷国家的所有人实现美好生活。然而,这在全球范围内带来的额外生物物理压力要求富裕国家将其生物物理足迹大幅减少40- 50%。现有的经验研究表明,即使在非常乐观的条件下,仅仅通过努力使国内生产总值增长与环境影响脱钩,也不可能实现这种程度的减排。因此,富裕国家要适应安全和公正空间的边界,就需要放弃将增长作为政策目标,转向后资本主义经济模式。
The safe and just space framework devised by Raworth calls for the world's nations to achieve key minimum thresholds in social welfare while remaining within planetary boundaries. Using data on social and biophysical indicators provided by O'Neill etal., this paper argues that it is theoretically possible to achieve a good life for all within planetary boundaries in poor nations by building on existing exemplary models and by adopting fairer distributive policies. However, the additional biophysical pressure that this entails at a global level requires that rich nations dramatically reduce their biophysical footprints by 40-50%. Extant empirical studies suggest that this degree of reduction is unlikely to be achieved solely through efforts to decouple GDP growth from environmental impact, even under highly optimistic conditions. Therefore, for rich nations to fit within the boundaries of the safe and just space will require that they abandon growth as a policy objective and shift to post-capitalist economic models.
