POST-TRUTH ERA – A TIME TO RECONSIDER SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT

Abstract

Current development policies are farther away from established economic patterns and corresponding ethical requirements, resulting in post-modern society parasitism by the post-truth of actual facts. It distorts both the form and content of issues of general interest by exacerbating secondary factors. The best example is the distortion of the political criteria of scientific evidence proving climate change due to human activity. However, we must not let ourselves overwhelmed by massive manipulation of economic and climate data, which are analyzed in good faith by experts. In terms of managing sustainable development, monitoring the achievement of Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) is no longer sufficient to have a clear picture of progress in the field. The paper presented here wants to demonstrate that real meaning of data can be protected by systematically analyzing all data on a subject, from different sources, that can aggregate, with applicability on sustainable development
