Abstract

This paper is a reflection on the interaction between regional development and sustainable development, here called sustainable regional development. To meet the objective, the definition of sustainable development is presented and how it is limited by the growth of the regional economy; the relationship between sustainable regional development, local values and territorial prospective is discussed. The approach concludes that sustainable regional development must become a practice moving beyond simple discourse. For that, it needs to become a value of society and of the actors that govern the regions in its most different spheres.

Keywords: Territory. Sustainable development. Regional economy. Regional development.
