L'apport du principe de développement durable au droit communautaire : gouvernance et citoyenneté écologique | ||

The European Union has made the commitment contained within the principle of sustainable development: taking responsibility for the future in an individual and collective way. Sustaineble development requires difficult choices, a reconsideration of the practices and experiences in order to move towards redefined progress, based on the respect of the laws in a healthy environment. The attention given to the consequences of this principle provides a glimpse of a new rationality, an evolution of programmatic frameworks, a new institutional positioning and a new way of making law. Sustainable development would have a double nature in Community law: a programmatic aspect, because it is a question of whether the principle of sustainable development is more than a principle of law and contains veritable aspects of ethnicity, justice and judicial effectiveness. | ||
