Hence devolve the preoccupation and view, in different manner, of sustainable development issue. In this context, it is natural to ask: who, how, when, in what conditions and under what motivation will be possible to determine the simultaneous achievement of sustainable development objectives, given that their alignment leads to some limits and paradoxes. In addition, we ask: what are the advantages of sustainable development models functionality at the global level? By this paper we propose to identify some answers to questions about the limits and controversies of sustainability, based on the analysis of literature review and critics related to sustainable development.
