Limited water resources have become a serious problem in recent decades. Based on previous research results, this article develops an index system to evaluate sustainable water resource development that includes a water resource condition system, a water resource development and utilization system, a water resource protection and management system, and a socio-economic system. A measurement model is then constructed based on a principal component analysis (PCA) -entropy weights-weighted average method to optimize the evaluation index system for dimensionality reduction, to assign weights to the principal component factors, and allow for a comprehensive evaluation of water resource sustainability. The measurement model is applied to an empirical analysis of sustainable water resource development in Sichuan Province from 2008 to 2017, from which it is found that coordinated sustainable regional water resource and social economic development can be achieved through rational exploitation, efficient utilization, and environmental water pollution control. This research could provide a reference for regional sustainable development of water resources and policy developments.

This article assesses the first decade of the trade-environment debate, and explores the possibilities for reconciliation of competing positions on trade-environment issues. It explores three aspects of the continuing conflict over trade and environment in the World Trade Organization. Rejecting both optimistic and pessimistic accounts of the past and future of the trade-environment debate it argues that important changes have occurred that have transformed the debate. But, despite the normalization of the trade-environment debate around the concept of sustainable development significant points of contention remain among the various participants.

The article deals with the application of the principles of systems analysis in the study of sets of isolated power supply systems within the tasks of sustainable development. For such aggregates, in terms of systems analysis, the concept of a regionally isolated electrotechnical complex is introduced. The analyzed electrotechnical complex is proved to be a complex production and technological system. With regard to a complex production and technological system - a regionally isolated electrotechnical complex, the authors provide a meaningful interpretation of the following principles of the theory of systems analysis: consistency, connectivity, hierarchy, emergence, optimality, and equifinality.

A relevance of development new meanings on the trajectory of sustainable development of economy of the Russian Federation has been justified. It has been offered to introduce into circulation a concept from area of the eco-oriented innovative development (further - EOID) of a look “a system -a model - a strategy - an algorithm”. Components of the offered concept have been presented. Verbalization of the specified concept has been considered. Semantic elements of a conceptual framework of the considered concept have been adduced. An application of developed concept on the example of investigation of status and level of implementation of the eco-oriented innovative development (EOID) of one region of the country has been demonstrated. Communication of concepts of this subject area and innovative policy of regions of the country has been shown.

Difficult Challenge

A significant component of sustainable development, proclaimed by the UNO, is the requirement to significantly reduce the formation of waste by preventing, reducing, recycling and reusing them. In the context of the formation of sustainable models of consumption and production, it is the circular economy that can provide a restorative, closed nature and is intended to replace the linear economic model. Circular economy has a restorative, closed nature, is characterized by minimization of consumption of primary raw materials and volumes of recycled resources, reduction of waste and waste costs. However, the transition to a circular economy requires a completely new approach not only to the production process, but also to the management system, a significant component of which is accountance. The purpose of the research is to outline the features and tendencies of accounting evolvement in the conditions of sustainable development and circular economy. The article specifies that the speed of changes in practical activities and scientific research in the context of sustainable development causes a change in requirements and functional approaches to accountance. The theoretical and practical approaches considered allow to determine those features of sustainable development and circular economy that influence accountance. The most difficult challenge in the development of accounting in the conditions of sustainable development and circular economy is the combination of economic, ecological and social results, as well as formed, established principles of accountance and financial reporting, also ensuring their reliability. Research of theoretical conceptions of accounting for sustainable development on the basis of positive and normative accountance theories can contribute to standardization and unification of financial and non-financial reporting on the company’s performance in the context of sustainable development and circular economy, limiting the possibility of incomplete, incorrect, inaccurate or unnecessary information.

Sustainability Assessment Tools

Many higher education institutions (HEIs) have started to incorporate sustainable development (SD) into their system. A variety of sustainability assessment tools (SATs) have been developed to support HEIs to systematically measure, audit, benchmark, and communicate SD efforts. In recent years, stakeholders have increasingly asked HEIs to demonstrate their impacts on SD. These impacts are the direct and indirect effects an HEI has outside of its organizational boundaries on society, the natural environment, and the economy. This study analyzes to what extent SATs are capable of measuring the impacts that HEIs have on SD. A mixed-method approach, using descriptive statistics and an inductive content analysis, was used to examine 1134 indicators for sustainability assessment derived from 19 SATs explicitly designed for application by HEIs. The findings reveal that SATs largely neglect the impacts HEIs have outside their organizational boundaries. SATs primarily use proxy indicators based on internally available data to assess impacts and thus tend to focus on themes concerning the natural environment and the contribution to the local economy. Updating existing SATs and developing new ones may enable HEIs to fully realize their potential to contribute to SD.

Market Behaviour

In the context of the realization of sustainable development and the introduction of a business model based on the principles of the eco-system, a modern enterprise has a number of tasks to determine its attitude to its own competitive position, in particular, and market behavior in general. It is therefore necessary to define the basic provisions used to describe the nature of the enterprise's market behaviour in terms of the biological (organic) approach
