Integrated paradigm of sustainable development: from economic efficiency to social justice and environmental balance

The authors of the scientific monograph concluded that sustainable development can be effectively achieved only within an integrated paradigm that ensures the systemic unity of economic efficiency, social justice, and environmental balance. The findings demonstrate that the harmonization of economic, social, and environmental objectives enhances the resilience of socio-economic systems, supports inclusive growth, and creates the preconditions for intergenerational equity. Basic research focuses on the conceptualization and theoretical substantiation of the integrated paradigm of sustainable development, including the identification of its core principles, structural components, and interrelationships between economic efficiency, social justice, and environmental balance. The results of the study can be used in the development and improvement of public policies, national and regional sustainable development strategies, and regulatory frameworks aimed at balancing economic, social, and environmental objectives. They may also be applied in corporate governance and strategic management to integrate sustainability principles into business models, as well as in academic and educational activities for teaching and further research in the fields of sustainable development, economics, public administration, and environmental management.
