Linking Knowledge Economy And Environmental Performances: Evidence For Arab Countries
Authors : Djeflat Abdelkader .
Abstract
Arab countries face two major challenges resulting from increasing competition from the rest of the world and persistent reliance on mineral resources for their growth. At the same time, sustainable development and the protection of the environment are becoming increasingly major concerns for world development since the Rio Summit in 1992 and more recently et the COP21 in Paris. It is increasingly recognized that sustainability requires more and more knowledge assets and capabilities. Knowledge can make substantial and essential, contributions to sustainability across a wide range of places and problems. In this respect, and from a sustainability point of view, knowledge economy opens up new and more accessible opportunities through the 'substitution' of physical resources by immaterial resources. Looking at a sample of Arab countries, our paper will argue that sustainability of growth rests fundamentally on the capability of properly harnessing knowledge
