Journal Title: VADYBA - Year 2019, Vol 35, Issue 2
Abstract
The aim of this article is to revel impact of classical philosophical-ethical theories on sustainable regional development. The difference between strong and weak sustainability are also analyzed and also the conflicts and synergies between social economic and environmental development in this article. There will also be a historical perspective to the concept of sustainable development. To give a deeper understanding about different opinions and approaches to sustainable development, there will be an interpretation of some theoretical perspective both about sustainable development and also about different philosophical theories and how they are related sustainable regional development. The study includes also a discussion about the synergies and conflicts between economic, ecologic and social development. We proceed to draw on consequentialist ethical theories and non-consequentialist ethical theories to argue the predominance of these classical philosophical value priorities and to explore which mindshifts are required to develop a more comprehensive understanding of what is needed to enable ‘sustainable development’.
