Progress, sustainable development and the biotechnological society

Abstract

The paper discusses several elements of the definition of sustainability and focuses on the common theme running through a number of domestic and international cases presented: the conflicting societal goals and the importance of the moral sense. The sustainable development paradigm can deepen our insights of how to explore problems of choice so that one can advance environmental policies that would be both equitable and efficient.
