Genesis of the Scientific-Practical Principles of Sustainable Development Programs in Ukraine
Abstract
The article is aimed at researching features of the genesis of scientific-practical principles for the formation and implementation of sustainable development programs in Ukraine. It is allocated and substantiated that in the evolution of these principles and in the formation of the modern model of sustainable development there is a fundamental merit of Ukrainian scholars who crystallized this problematics in their pioneering writings (in particular, S. A. Podolynskyy, V. I. Vernadskyy, M. D. Rudenko). It is emphasized that the genesis of sustainable development is closely related to the need to develop significant financial resources for the protection of the environment. In particular, the compensation of current anthropogenic load on the environment is possible at the total cost of its protection and recovery comprising 6% of GDP, and already at 8-10% even the before caused damage to the environment can be neutralized. It is proved that sustainable development for Ukraine in the framework of these programs is strategically possible only due to the development of such ecological mechanism of motivation that will be beneficial to both business entities and consumers (population), and this determines the need for concretization of tasks and determination of generally accepted appraisal and comparative parameters for the corresponding model. It is grounded that to further ensure formation and proper financing of specific sustainable economic development programs, it is necessary to activate the process of adaptation of both the global goals and the exponential base to the needs of different regions of the State, based on the current decentralisation provisions and the new administrative and territorial division. It is emphasized that the program nature of sustainable development directly depends on the purposeful attention on the part of government institutions along with practitioners for scientific-technological progress, in particular in the part of the development of resource-saving technologies in the system of both the formation of a gross domestic product, and the stimulation of motivation to increase welfare of the population.
