“Synthesis of Ecology and Economics ” Towards a New Theoretical Paradigm

Abstract

This paper explores the synthesis between ecology and economics to establish a new theoretical paradigm for sustainable development Traditional economic models often ignore ecological limits, leading to resource depletion, biodiversity loss and climate change, conversely, ecological systems provide the foundational services upon which all economic activities depend. This research integrates ecological principles into economic thinking, proposing a framework that balances economic growth with environmental preservation the study concludes that the future of development lies in an ecological-economic synthesis.
