A Novel Approach to Evaluating Sustainable Development

Rozwój zrównoważony jest zagadnieniem trudnym do zmierzenia, tym bardziej, że nie ma jednej uniwersalnej metody takiego pomiaru. W tym artykule proponujemy metodę statystyczną, która sprowadza wiele wskaźników w jeden wskaźnik ilościowy. Przeanalizowano uwarunkowania rozwoju zrównoważonego w 27 krajach Unii Europejskiej. Rezultaty pokazują, że najbardziej zaawansowanymi we wdrażaniu tego rozwoju są Szwecja i Dania. Na drugim końcu skali znajdują się nowi członkowie UE, kraje takie jak Łotwa, Węgry, Estonia, Litwa i Słowacja. To wyzwanie dla Unii, jeśli chce ona odgrywać wiodącą rolę we wdrażaniu rozwoju zrównoważonego w perspektywie globalnej.

Należy podkreślić, że proponowaną metodę można zastosować w stosunku do wszystkich innych regionów, a poprzez to uzyskać informacje pozwalającej określić, czy świat zmierza w kierunku realizacji celów zrównoważonego rozwoju.

Słowa kluczowe:

rozwój zrównoważony, metoda I-distance, ranking krajów
