Abstract:
The paper highlights the necessity of quantifying the sustainable development at local level and thepossibility to realize that in Romania. In order to sustain these aspects we present the evolution of the system ofindicators at local level, a case study on rural communities and an opinion inquiry. We developed also amethodology for a synthetic indicator at local level, proposing an Index of Sustainable Development at LocalLevel (ISDL) that summarizes a complex array of information.
