Abstract


It became clear that bringing the Earth to an ecological balance is an archival task of humanity, but reaching an agreement on the need for comprehensive changes will not be easy. But the question has already been put on the agenda.
The role of the «Club of Rome», World Environmental Forums and Reports of International Environmental Commissions in justifying the concept of sustainable development is analyzed. It was revealed that for most subjects of world politics in the development and implementation of the goals of sustainable development, the imitation of legislative functions, rhetoric prevails instead of real changes in the ecological and economic paradigm. It is emphasized the need for a radical change in the moral paradigm of human life, according to which only what is ecological is economic.
The factors of the scientific, economic, technological, political-legal and worldview levels that universally inhibit the introduction of the model of sustainable development are indicated and analyzed.
