Abstract
This article offers some reflections on sustainability in Kolkata, Indian city characterized by a steady increase in population, poverty and violence. It is argued that the key issue is not the continuous increase in population, but how to square the circle between, on the one hand, social justice and the right at a decent standard of living and, on the other, environmental sustainability and the availability of resources. Questo articolo si occupa della questione di sostenibilita in Kolkata, citta indiana caratterizzata da un costante aumento di popolazione, violenza e poverta. Si sostiene che la questione fondamentale non e l’aumento continuo della popolazione, ma come far quadrare il cerchio tra giustizia sociale e diritto a un livello di vita decente, da un lato e, dall’altro la sostenibilita ambientale e la disponibilita di risorse.
