The ecological component of the lasting development
2007
We think that a careful and objective examination of the events, of the phenomena and of the processes from nature and society, show two axiomatical truth, that determine the change of'the conceptions and of the mentalities according to the economical development increasing, to the general progress, to the living level and aspirations and interests. It is known that the society or social system represent a dependent part of the mother-nature (ecosystem) with a minor impact to the human existence and conscience.
Development as WB Thesis FINAL
The concepts of well-being and development are widely used by economic institutions and international cooperation programs to form and inform their policies. Even though we can say that an intuition of a link between both concepts may exist, until now there has not yet been proposed a formal definition between them. The present work aims to establish a link between the concepts of development and well-being by defining the former as a function of the latter. By doing so, a new comprehensive definition of well-being is proposed, and, as a result, it is possible to link both notions in the same coherent vision in accordance with the capability approach framework.
Revisiting Vygotsky's Concept of Zone of Proximal Development: Towards a Stage of Proximity
Without a doubt, the contribution of Mozart's psychology, Lev S. Vygotsky, is an undeniable fact to the field of developmental psychology. One of the most significant issues put forward by Vygotsky is the notion of ZPD (Zone of Proximal Development) which is the distance between one’s actual and potential level of development. Due to the academic popularity and attribution of the ZPD concept to Vygotsky, recent discussions and contributions, either rival or complementary, seem to be marginalized. To this effect, the present paper starts with a description of the notion of ZPD and then moves to consider other contributions such as IDZ put forward by Mercer and ZFM and ZPA put forward by Valsiner. Finally, the current paper argues that the notion of ZPD is an ever-growing and developing concept thanks initially to the genius inspiration of Lev S. Vygotsky.

Geography of, The Development Process
Following the quantum wave function collapse, QWFC and the exponential function, e x , the development process is reconstructed, as a complex interplay of spirituality and the business model. The observed trend is interpreted to fulfill Immanuel Kant's nature's secret plan for the full development of human capacities, which would predicate on the evolution of the appropriate culture. Then creativity would have been translated from its usual domain in intuition where it is done by trial and error, into rationality where it is deliberate; and therefore teachable, learnable, and measureable; to become the kernel of a work culture. This would truncate Toynbee's cycle of civilizations, to make development sedentary. 0.1 Preamble Geography is fundamentally concerned with spatial organization. For developmental purposes, it is also interested to trace trends. This requires that the processes that underlie the distribution of geographic phenomena in space are reconstructed, as well as established in fact. This has been straight forward with physical geography, with processes like volcanic eruptions, weathering, evaporation, etc. As well as certain human components like urbanization, industrialization, transportation, etc. But with respect to development, these would be micro processes. The macro process would involve the possibility to trace the global trends in development. This has required that fundamental issues in physics and psychology are resolved, to clarify the philosophical basis for development. Then the full impact of humanity in the developmental process would become obvious, as the most sensitive resource and therefore strategic input to the process.

The Idea of the Developmental State
The paper talks about the definition, idea, and perspective of the Developmental State, through a political-economic and historical analysis of it
The concept of human development combines the production and distribution of goods. The use of income is as important as its generation. There are four components of human development: equity, productivity, competence and sustainability. The paper considers the sustainability paradigm as a component of human development. Sustainability, in short terms, signifies a responsible attitude toward future generations. Namely, future generations should have the same development opportunities as the present generation, that is, the opportunity to enjoy the level of well-being of the current generation should not be denied to them. Equal opportunities must be provided for intragenerational and intergenerational justice. Based on the nature of the answers about the substitutability of certain forms of capital in the process of generating economic growth, four versions of sustainability can be defined; very weak sustainability, weak sustainability, strong sustainability and very strong sustainability. The authors came to the conclusion that the concepts of very poor and poor sustainability are not in agreement with the basic idea and goals of the concept of human development that concerns expanding the possibility of choosing. On the contrary, the concept of strong and particularly very strong sustainability expresses a responsible attitude toward future generations and functions in expanding opportunities for people as well as maximizing the level of their well-being in the long run. Sažetak: Koncept ljudskog razvoja objedinjuje proizvodnju i raspodelu dobara. Upotreba dohotka je važna koliko i njegovo generisanje. Četiri su komponente ljudskog razvoja: pravičnost, produktivnost, osposobljenost i održivost. U radu se sagledava paradigma održivosti kao komponenta ljudskog razvoja. Održivost, u širem smislu, označava odgovoran odnos prema budućim naraštajima. Naime, budući naraštaji treba da imaju iste mogućnosti za razvoj kao i sadašnja generacija, odnosno, ne sme im se uskratiti šansa da uživaju u onom blagostanju koje ima aktuelna generacija. Jednake mogućnosti moraju obezbediti intrageneracijsku i intergeneracijsku pravednost. Nа оsnоvu prirode odgovora u vezi sa zаmеnljivošću pojedinih oblika kapitala u procesu generisanja ekonomskog rasta, mоgu sе dеfinisаti čеtiri vеrziје оdrživоsti: vrlо slаbа оdrživоst, slаbа оdrživоst, јаkа оdrživоst i vrlо јаkа оdrživоst. Autori su došli do zaključka da koncepti vrlo slabe i slabe održivosti nisu u saglasju sa osnovnom idejom i ciljevima koncepta ljudskog razvoja koji govore o širenju mogućnosti izbora. Naprotiv, koncept jake održivosti, a posebno koncepti vrlo jake održivosti, izražavaju odgovoran odnos prema budućim naraštajima i u funkciji su širenja mogućnosti za ljude, a takođe i maksimiziranja nivoa njihovog blagostanja na duži rok. Ključne reči: ekonomski rast, ekonomski razvoj, ljudski razvoj, prirodni kapital, održivost, vrlo slaba održivost, slaba održivost, jaka održivost, vrlo jaka održivost
