lpv:translated text	". The concept of sustainable development stems from one need: to respond, through a solidarity which is mindful of the future, to the feeling of complexity and dependence which characterises globalisation. What kind of world community, however, should we propose to future generations? ‘Terminological antidotes’ are brandished in the guise of panaceas; the concept of sustainable development is one of them. In an environmental discourse in which the precautionary principle becomes a policy and good governance a myth, it is easy for this concept to feed off itself and justify itself. Because this vague principle, which advocates transparency in decision-making, is sometimes very opaque. Today’s resolution is typical of the texts submitted to us on this subject. Based on declarations of intent which make unanimity inevitable, they open the door to technical elements which are sometimes arguable. Today, it is a reform of the CAP and Community trade policy and therefore, implicitly, the fisheries policy. It is not a question of running down a strong and stimulating concept, but of being wary of the risk of instrumentalisation which may be in store. We also propose a return to the interpretation of the Brundtland report, which defined sustainable development in terms of a guideline for action. This then puts action back in the hands of national States, within the context of international organisations or by means of bilateral cooperation."@en1
