El objetivo del artículo es determinar la relación entre la convivencia ciudadana, el cuidado ambiental y las dimensiones culturales, a partir de un estudio documental de fuentes secundarias, entre ellas, el Environmental Performance Index (EPI) de 2020 y las dimensiones de la cultura de Hofstede de 2020. La metodología es de corte cuantitativo con alcances correlacionales; la muestra incluye países con alto desempeño ambiental, dos con desempeño ambiental medio y bajo, pero con un PIB muy alto, como es el caso de Estados Unidos y China, respectivamente, y los países de la Alianza del Pacífico. Los resultados muestran la relación entre la convivencia ciudadana, las instituciones o dimensiones culturales y el EPI. Aunque las variables estén correlacionadas, la dinámica cambiante de los aspectos institucionales implica un análisis diacrónico en contextos específicos y la necesidad de profundizaciones posteriores. No obstante, mientras la literatura sobre teoría institucional y sustentabilidad es prolífica, la correlación de variables planteada es inédita. En conclusión, el ambiente es transversal a la convivencia, y factores como el individualismo y la orientación a largo plazo la promueven, mientras la distancia de poder y la disminución de la incertidumbre la condicionan.

Regional Aspect

The methodology of calculation of environmental performance index is considered in the article. The necessity of assessing the environmental efficiency index at the regional level in connection with which the authors attempted to adapt the indicators is proved; the recommendations on improving the national system of environmental indicators for the purpose of maximum correlation with the indicators of the environmental performance index are given.

With the awareness of their environmental performance, countries can provide strategies and policies to improve their environmental performance. Thus, countries can contribute to their own economic development by increasing their environmental performance. Therefore, measuring the environmental performance of countries is of great importance. Environmental performance of countries can be measured by the Environmental Performance Index (EPI). EPI consists of two factors, environmental health and ecosystem vitality. Its factors are environmental protection components, and environmental protection components are environmental protection variables. In this context, the research has two purposes. The first of these,To measure the latest and up-to-date environmental performances of the G7 group countries for 2018, using CODAS and TOPSIS multi-criteria decision-making methods (MCDM) over the values of EPI components. The second is to determine which MCDM method can be used to explain the EPI values of countries the most. According to the findings, the ranking of countries' environmental performance with the CODAS method was determined as England, France, Japan, Germany, Canada, Italy and the USA. According to the TOPSIS method, this ranking was determined as England, France, Germany, Japan, Canada, Italy and the USA. According to another finding, it has been observed that there is a significant, positive and very high relationship between the EPI values of the countries and the values measured by the CODAS and TOPSIS methods. According to this result, it was evaluated that EPI can be explained by both methods. In addition, it has been concluded that the correlation value between TOPSIS values of EPI within the scope of the research is higher than the CODAS method, so it can be explained better with the TOPSIS method compared to the EPI CODAS method. In the literature, in order not to find a study measuring the environmental performance of countries with CODAS and TOPSIS methods, it was evaluated that the study in question contributed to the literature, since the findings obtained as a result of the research became a data set for future studies.

The paper deals with the analysis of methodology of Environmental Performance Index. The authors analyzed and systematized the main existing integrated indices, which were used for evaluation of environmental, social and economic situation in the countries. The authors allocated the environmental performance index as a basis for analyzing the environmental policy of the country. In this direction, the authors analysed the main features, structure and indicators of environmental performance index. The authors allocated the world-leader countries with huge level of CO2 emissions. According to the results, the authors aproved that these countries should improve their environmental policy. Accordingly, they occupied less position in environmental performance index. For the purpose to analyze the relation between ecological, social and economic welfare, the authors analyzed score of sustainable development goal index, social progress index and gross domestic product per capita. The comparison analysis of findings showed that countries with good position on environmental performance index have the strong position on sustainable development goal index and social progress index. The authors suggested that Ukraine should orient to the EU countries with purpose to improve the environmental policy.

The Third Principle which is pertaining to the right to development in Agenda 21 of the Rio Declaration or Earth Summit asserts that it must be fulfilled so that development must be sustainable which has been defined as development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own need. Among the various models of environmental sustainability comparative studies was the Environmental Performance Index (EPI) model. Malaysia was ranked 54 recording a score of 65 and ranked 10 among the Asia and Pacific Countries behind two ASEAN countries: Singapore and Philippines. The environmental indicators from 2010 EPI was therefore used to develop the System Dynamics Simulation Model to provide the framework and procedure for qualitative and quantitative description, exploration and analysis of the systems in terms of their processes, information boundaries and strategies, facilitating quantitative simulation modeling for policy evaluation and predictions pertinent to sustainability. The System Dynamic Simulation Model developed for the EPI of Malaysia changed the static presentation to a dynamic scenario. Two very important components were considered: the contribution and the impact of population and the industrial activities indicated as the Industrial Productivity Index. The simulated EPI of 66.51 was shown to differ slightly from the EPI 2010 of 65 attributed to the inclusion of the population and the industrial production factors in the system dynamic model, in which the later study did not compute the EPI with respect to the two factors. Thus, the System Dynamic Simulation Model developed has shown to be reliable and be used for any country to simulate EPI for future trends.
