Abstract
Analysing long-term dynamics, it is possible to find that the scarcity
of natural resources and raw materials has contributed to generating
innovation and techno-scientific progress in industrialised economies.
Just think at research aimed at achieving higher levels of efficiency
in an industrial transformation process, saving inputs, or reducing
waste when raw material is not abundant. Through cycles of revolution
and innovation, this mechanism has loosened the antagonism
between resource scarcity and commodity producibility, transforming
it into synergy. However, the time and costs of the transition from the
theoretical to the applied field cannot turn innovation into a factor of
certainty in terms of time and mode. For this, supranational Institutions
should provide more attention to the issue of resources, which also
need concrete and lasting political support.
