Abstract

Starting from the well-established notion that human beings live in society and the fact that their needs are unlimited in relation to the available resources, this paper focuses on the noticeable decrease of the rooted tension between two fundamental concepts in economics and on possible credible and promising solutions. The concept of blue economy is recognised as central to sustainable development that incorporates socio-economic benefits and environmental conservation. This highlights in an integrated way the economic and trade activities focusing on the ocean-based marine environment, associated biodiversity, ecosystems, species and genetic resources whilst ensuring conservation. Thus, blue economy means the use of sea and the use of its resources for sustainable economic development. Also closely related to the idea of sustainability, this new type of economic approach offers humanity new opportunities and perspectives by promoting appropriate policies to support research and development in view of the implementation of mechanisms based on sustainable practices inspired by ecosystems. Following the analysis of the main economic indicators at EU level (the number of jobs in specific sectors of the blue economy and their specific gross value added), there has been a continuous upward trend generated by the efforts of European authorities to perceive, understand, assimilate and adopt the most relevant aspects relating to the phenomenon of the blue economy. The study’s contribution is based on the manifestation of this new phenomenon, which is analysed by collecting updated data from the latest reports and documents, as well as by presenting case studies aimed at identifying its features, advantages and weaknesses, both at EU level as well as at a national (i.e., Romanian) and global level.

“蓝色经济”——当代的凤凰。对当前人类问题的启示
从人类生活在社会中这一公认的概念出发,以及他们的需求相对于可用资源是无限的这一事实,本文重点关注经济学中两个基本概念之间根深蒂固的紧张关系的显著减少,以及可能可信和有希望的解决方案。蓝色经济的概念被认为是可持续发展的核心,它结合了社会经济效益和环境保护。这以综合的方式突出了经济和贸易活动,重点关注海洋环境、相关的生物多样性、生态系统、物种和遗传资源,同时确保保护。因此,蓝色经济意味着利用海洋和利用海洋资源实现经济的可持续发展。这种新型的经济方法也与可持续性的概念密切相关,它通过促进适当的政策来支持研究和发展,考虑到基于生态系统所启发的可持续做法的机制的实施,为人类提供了新的机会和前景。在分析了欧盟层面的主要经济指标(蓝色经济特定部门的就业人数及其特定的总增加值)之后,欧洲当局在感知、理解、吸收和采用与蓝色经济现象相关的最相关方面的努力产生了持续上升的趋势。这项研究的贡献是基于这种新现象的表现,通过从最新报告和文件中收集最新数据,以及通过提出旨在确定其在欧盟一级以及在国家(即罗马尼亚)和全球一级的特点、优点和缺点的案例研究来分析这种新现象。
