| Abstract | Evolution of life is a scientific concept, mainly based on biological findings. The notion “sustainable development” stands for a social contract in construction. Social contracts are a part of the cultural evolution. On a global scale there is neither a dominant model on the origin and destination of life, due to the diversity of religious beliefs, nor a broad agreement on the concrete contents of a contract on sustainability, due to the variety of culture and economy. In the 20th century two new phenomena have risen in the process of cultural evolution: the environmental consciousness and a new type of urbanization. The normative concept of a sustainable development is a consequence of the two. Any work on the social contract named “sustainable development” depends on the understanding of these two phenomena. Environmental protection, based on the results of environmental research, still operates with the paradigm of the two spheres, namely the anthroposphere, where urbanization takes place, and the geosphere, where nature develops without man-made disturbances. Urbanization is driven by socio-economical processes, in which the political design of the boundary conditions is crucial. Sustainable Development is not just an upshot of environmental protection. It asks for a new paradigm in designing the anthroposphere. This hypothesis is illustrated with resource management systems on global, regional and local scales and the interdependences between them.
