Abstract
Many misunderstandings and ambiguities of the conception of sustainable development are connected to its interpretation in terms of a dominant neoliberal ideology – ideology of corporate capitalism. We consider the sustainable development strategy as a post capitalist project of a new global civilization replacing the world capitalist system. Three basic elements form the project’s foundation: first, paradigm of the dialogue between philosophical cultures; second, noosphere socialist conception; third, the idea of universal progressivism. Sustainable development is comprehensive and universal progress of humankind at the expenses of noosphere or intellectual potential, but not at the expenses of nature. In this sense, the strategy for sustainable development can be considered as universal noosphere progressivism. We propose to consider the strategy of sustainable development as a global civilization project providing an inclusive security on a planetary scale, returning a human civilization to harmony with nature and at the same time providing ascending to a stage of higher quality of life and a higher level of creative evolution of the world. One of the main ways and means of ascending is a nonviolent moral revolution on a planetary scale.
