Resumo:
This study consists of a bibliographic research and a critical investigation on the paradigm of sustainable development, by observing its influence upon the Brazilian socioeconomic and environmental policy, and upon the sustainable development plan of
Paraiba. This paper also presents the relationship between the current sustainability policy with the development programs settled by SUDENE since the 70's, in which the necessity to generate new employment opportunities is emphasized. The settlement of the
sustainability policy is understood as a necessity brought by the developed countries with the purpose of get the developing countries to practice a less environmental hazardous model of development; not only for environment preservation and poverty reduction, but also for the developed countries to maintain and reproduce the exploitation of natural and productive resources of developing countries.
