Abstract(s)
Sustainable development requires participation of informed citizens and education for social responsibility. There is a trilogy of senses: technical, ethical and legal-political. Sustainable development starts to be a technical criterion for evaluation of the various possibilities that scientific and technological evolution brings to the modern world. In addition, it is an ethical evaluation criterion, supported on the idea of inter-generational solidarity, and in the legal-political plan is a principle that aims the continuation of common good, through a fair distribution of wealth and the preservation of essential resources for the future of humanity.
