A method to measure sustainability is developed, shifting its conceptualization from deterministic to probabilistic.
- class="label">•
The proposal deals with four key issues: arbitrary structure, valuation, artificial ignorance suppression, and democratic illegitimacy.
- class="label">•
The method is applied, results are showed, and its weaknesses and strengths are identified.
- class="label">•
The proposal enables evaluating the sustainability trajectory of countries, subject to defined confidence levels.
