Sustainability Dilemmas of our EU-Accession
Keywords:
Sustainability, Sustainable economic development, European integrationAbstract
The principle of sustainable development was formulated in the Amsterdam Treaty as a basic principle of the European Union in
1997. The issues of sustainable economic development and social welfare are being formulated as conflicting aims from time to time
during the Hungarian accession process to the European Union, as well.
We can set a real aim that the economic growth should serve for the aims of sustainability during the accession.
