and societal choices made by multiple actors from government, the private sector and civil society, with important influences by science and the media . These actions and social choices are determined by the available solution space and options, along with a range of enabling conditions  that are largely bounded by individual and collective worldviews, and related ethics and values. This view is consistent with sustainable development being a process constituted by multiple inter-related societal choices and actions that are often contested as the needs and interests of current and future generations are addressed. Development choices have path dependencies and context-sensitive synergies and trade-offs with natural and embedded human systems, and they are bounded by multiple and contested knowledges and worldviews . Consequently, societal choices about the political economy underpin prospects for moving towards or away from CRD.
