Abstract

The paper considers the axiological and philosophical background of sustainable development. It is a philosophy of pragmatism. Therefore, sustainable development does not transgress utilitarian values. A paradigm of a human being for it is homo faber. The shortcomings of such a philosophical background are considered. It is claimed that sustainable development supported by pragmatism is not able to constitute a new order.
