Cirkulární ekonomie a ekonomika - Společenské paradigma, postavení, budoucnost a praktické souvislosti – Kislingerová Eva (2021)

The publication presents the gradual development of the circular economy as a response to the promotion of the circular economy in the real world and also as a response to societal demand, or rather the societal paradigm, reflected in political decisions. It maps the basic relationships between traditional economy and its foundations and between circular economy and the postulates from which it derives. It raises a number of questions that will soon need to be addressed. Among them are acceptable limits of regulation, acceptable limits of support for circular production chains, natural sources of growth for the circular economy, and many others. The publication also highlights the new complexity of the relationships between politics and economy, as implied by the specific position of the circular economy as a theoretical economic fulfillment of new societal demands. It is intended for all entities dealing with the issues of the circular economy, from manufacturing companies to end-users and entities involved in waste disposal. The publication is also aimed at university and college students, as the issue of waste-free economy is one of the significant goals of the European Union.
