GENESIS OF THE PARADIGM OF SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT
ABSTRACT ▼
The article is devoted to the study of historical preconditions and institutional determinants of the genesis of the paradigm of sustainable development, as well as the analysis of basic concepts and scientific ideas that formed the conceptual platform and ideological construction of the paradigm, including Cowboy economics, Full World, The Limits to Growth, Green economy, Organic development.
The shaping of basic principles and targets of this paradigm has a long history that is forming by the evolution of ethical norms, goals of economic development, and practices of social interaction.
Systematic research on the problem of assessing the global results of economic development began in the early 1970s, which was stimulated on the one hand by the development of systemic economic, political, and social crises, and on the other by the development of new scientific tool – global modeling. The conceptual platform and ideological construction of the paradigm of sustainable development, based on the principles of balancing economic, social, and environmental goals of society, was formed by members of the Club of Rome. The leading institutional forms of sustainable development, which should be implemented with the support of international structures and national governments both at the level of individual consumption and at the level of the national economy, should be the circular economy, technological modernization of production processes to minimize costs and resource losses and the system of corporate social responsibility.
The study of the genesis of the scientific paradigm of sustainable development is important for an in-depth understanding of its vision and mission, as well as for determining the relevant practical mechanisms for achieving the goals of sustainable development.
Keywords: Sustainable development, UN Sustainable Development Goals, paradigm of science, world dynamics, «limits of growth», global issues, Club of Rome, circular economy, corporate social responsibility.
