Discours historique sur les stranded assets

In 1974, Dennis Meadows and his MIT research team published a book titled “Towards global equilibrium: the collected papers”, which has never been translated into French. Christophe Mangeant, an engineer at the French Atomic Energy and Alternative Energies Commission , translated the book’s chapter (number 7) which focuses on the issues surrounding waste produced by our economic model. “Towards global equilibrium” is the sequel to Meadows’ highly controversial and acclaimed 1972 publication, “The limits to growth”.
