Održivi razvoj i principi održivog razvoja u strateškim dokumentima Republike Srbije
Sustainable Development And Principles Of Sustainable Development In Strategic Documents Of The Republic Of Serbia

Summary/Abstract: The paper analyzes the strategic documents that the Government Serbia adopted in the period from 2008 through 2011, from the point of the extent to which basic ideas and principles of sustainable development are present in those strategies. By adopting the National Strategy for Sustainable Development in 2008 the Republic of Serbia has accepted that sustainable development becomes its permanent development orientation and of course one of the prerequisites for entry into the family of modern European states. However, given the symbolist, traditional and declarative approach to the concept of sustainable development, it can be established that most the adopted strategic documents, that is, national strategies are not essentially, but only formally, in line with the National Strategy for Sustainable Development. The reasons are certainly found in the fact that the state, that is, the administrative structure, did not understand the essence of sustainable development and the opportunities it provides. Although the idea of sustainable development should be approached from a critical standpoint, there is no doubt that by its political ignorance in the politics of the Serbian government it loses the necessary and costly time needed to strengthen the process of modernization and ecologisation of the society in Serbia.
