| Summary: | This article retakes some discourses on sustainability aiming at finding perspectives of historical consciousness, given that Ecology has been projected like a contemporary vision of the world. Thereby this work is a semantic analysis of the term sustainability, focusing on how the idea of a space-time regulated as an ideal of historical Reason appears implied in the term. It is assumed the hypothesis that there is a psychological operator in the discursive structuring of the term sustainability, in which it is observed the role of a regulatory principle and some constituent elements. The research concludes that the regulatory and constitutive contents of the idea of sustainability derive from the civilization route as an imperative of the historical Reason vis-a-vis the environmental question that is imposed in the contemporary time. |
