Abstract:

In this scientific paper we propose to analyze the connection between Romania’s economic growth and sustainable development after EU Integration time. Taking into consideration the assessment indicators of sustainable development which are given by the system of national accounts, we analyze these indicators, highilighting at the same time the economic growth of a country.   

The phrase sustainable development combines the economic growth and the preservation and improvement of environmental and human health, preservation of social justice and assurance of democratic environment in social life. Therefore, the sustainable economic growth provides for the meeting of current consumption requirements without compromising or prejudicing those of the future generations. By adding the requirements regarding environmental protection and preservation of natural resources to economic growth we may speak of a proper sustainable development.
