Abstract

The paper refers to elements which are the arguments for a sustainable development of the economic process, a process that defines the economic system, which is closely linked with its environment. The proposed objectives are: - Highlighting the need to address the economic system in an entropic perspective for understanding the impact of economic activities on the environment; - Building an argument to support the approach of the economic system from the perspective of sustainable development. It is a qualitative research approach, a deductive one, whose starting point is the theories developed by Georgescu-Roegen.
