✦ Synopsis

Beyond Interdependence is in many ways a follow-up to Our Common Future (1987), the report of the World Commission on Environment and Development, better known as the Brundtland Commission. For one thing, the senior author, Jim MacNeill, was Secretary General to the Brundtland Commission. A note at the end of the book states that he was 'the principal architect and main author' of that report. Given the need for consensus among 24 commissioners, it is only reasonable to believe that MacNeill is able to say things here that could not be said in the published report.
