dc.description.abstractWhat are the contemporary conditions and simplicity, and their contestation, the context of urban sustainable objective of this paper is to critically explore range of contemporary efforts that creatively engage these issues as we collectively transform the urban experience in the 21st century. A fundamental hypothesis theoretically, based on a preliminary synthesis of the laws of thermodynamics, dynamics, and socio-econo-political theory. The hypothesis is that the more simple, the less complex a system, the more sustainable it is. This hypothesis accelerating degrees of complexity of societies in a global era is a key driver is coupled with and indeed underlies and makes possible two other factors that often cited as the key drivers of sustainability: the increasing population and and human activities such as production, consumption, and their impacts; along accelerating rates of change of human phenomena, so that together in combination, lead away from sustainability due to the fundamental principles of various natural including and especially thermodynamics and ecology.
