Sustainable Development: Assessing the Current Situation of Globalization
ZHANG Qi-xue
Teaching and Research
2005, (7):
34-38.
Sustainable development and globalization are the strategic choice of all countries, and the world as well, for purposes of more thorough development. But when sustainable development and globalization are both addressed, these two do not appear to be in harmonious terms, that is, to a certain extent. Sustainable development under circumstances of globalization is actually very vulnerable, for the simple reason that in practice these two follow conflicting ideas. For instance, fair and equal versus unequal exchange, restriction versus expansion, internalized environmental cost versus making use of outside resources, to name only a few. The author concludes that successful sustainable development requires that the whole society make joint efforts to establish a globalization frame supported by ideas of sustainable development.
