Fairness and Futurity: Essays on Environmental Sustainability and Social Justice brings together leading international figures in political theory and sociology, as well as representatives from the political community, to consider the normative issues at stake in the relationship between environmental sustainability and social justice. It raises important questions and sets out to provide the answers. If future generations are owed justice, what should we bequeath them? Is `sustainability' an appropriate medium for environmentalists to express their demands? Is environmental protection compatible with intra-generational justice? Is environmental sustainability a luxury when social peace has broken down? These essays emerged from three intensive seminars that involved participants in constant re-evaluations of their work, and which bought three distinct groups--environmental theorists, `mainstream' political theorists, and policy community members--into fruitful contact. In particular, the attempt to involve `mainstream' theorists in environmental questions, and to encourage environmentalists to use intellectual resources of political theory, should be highlighted.

With the transformation of the elderly into a major political force in American politics, older Americans have used their increasing numbers and political power to capture a growing and disproportionate share of public resources. This book explores their emergence from obscurity to political preeminence and considers the effect of their power on other members of society. It traces the shift in public attitude from the 18th century to the early 20th century, when the elderly population increased and needed an economic safety net. It then focuses on the elderly's growing power in the late 20th century and examines how they are receiving an expanding share of the budget for such programs as Social Security and Medicare at the expense of such groups as children in poverty.

From the local dry cleaner to the nation's largest to breweries, family businesses make up 90 percent of the fifteen million businesses in the United States. Yet only one-third make it to the second generation, and 10 percent to the third, because owners -- tempted by lucrative offers -- cash in to ensure the financial security of their children. In Sustaining the Family Business, Marshall Paisner celebrates the unique qualities of the family business, and offers a comprehensive resource for successfully managing the enterprise across generations. Drawing from his own extensive experience, new primary research, and examples of family businesses in a wide range of industries, Paisner offers practical recommendations for handling conflict, establishing professional management structures, setting long-term goals, developing tax and estate strategies, and preparing heirs to take the reins.
