The cultural threads running through literature on sustainability and community development are highlighted, intertwined with discussions on social sustainability and community capital, and informed by community cultural development and eco-arts. Part two outlines ten prevailing themes in the emerging cultural sustainability literature. Part three presents three models of sustainability that include culture as a significant component: the four-pillar model of sustainability, the four well-beings of community sustainability, and the medicine wheel approach to sustainability. A brief chronology of key points in the co-evolution of thinking about sustainability, development, and culture is presented in Appendix A. (Font: Autor)No physical items for this record
