The appearance of global environmental problems as a topic in the 1990s had a major impact on the question of sustainable development in the approach to environmental risk and the issue of the trade-off between economic growth and the environment. Regardless, numerous studies have shown that there is no direct trade-off between economic growth and the environment; yet, this issue is topical and related to the question: what is the best way to preserve the environment alongside the economic growth and urbanization of cities and regions? However, today governments, companies, and individuals are becoming more aware that the use of technology and the increase in economic capacity should not negatively affect the environment. This issue attracts attention from diverse fields including ecology, policy making, economics, the use and transfer of technologies, corporate responsibility, tourism, the green economy, and other fields related to this problem.

This Special Issue aims to welcome all comprehensive reviews, case studies, or research articles that formulate innovative theoretical and methodological approaches related to this field. The aim of the research papers in this volume is to promote sustainable development from an ecological economics perspective—a double-edged sword.

On January 14, 2019, a traditional New Year’s Cocktail was organized by the Geographical Institute. This event was designed as an informal gathering of the present collective, external collaborators and business partners of the Institute, in order to share and celebrate last year’s successes in a pleasant atmosphere.

The Director of the Institute, Milan Radovanovic, addressed and welcomed the guests, and then left the word to Ana Milanovic Pešić, the first deputy director of our Institute, who presented last year’s activities and achievements in the scientific work of associates. The special emphasis was placed on non-project activities and performance in the academic work of individual associates who were also symbolically rewarded on this occasion.
