Abstract: Teaching economics as a distinct subject matter requires a curriculum rationale and curricular orientation no less than any other subject matter field. As with any social studies curriculum component, it is necessary to delineate the curriculum parameters of economics so as to justify and guide its teaching in the schools. This article aims to explore various approaches to developing and implementing economics curricula, weighs their benefits and drawbacks, and ends with a suggestion for blending the alternatives so as to optimize the benefits. Prior to the development of a curriculum rationale, however, the educator must ask a question seldom raised with the other social sciences: What kind of economics should be taught? Positive Versus Normative Economics The positive versus normative distinction in economics is particularly important in economic education.

Abstract: The main ideas and guidelines of The Concept of Sustainable Development are considered in the study, according to the Brundtland Report of the World Commission on Environment and Development (WCED), as well as the goals for its practical implementation, established in contemporary strategies and policies locally and globally. These issues are related to the notion of a "knowledge economy", where the focus is on human capital, and knowledge and innovation are seen as key factors for development and growth. Corporate social responsibility (CSR) and the principles of good governance have been studied as a basis for sustainable development in the private and public sectors of the economy. In this regard, the scope of CSR is clarified, as well as the key areas of good governance. The role of knowledge and integrity in The Paradigm of Sustainable Development is clarified. Based on the practice in highly ranked universities in Europe and the United States, the relationship between the operation of ethical norms and standards, on the one hand, and the achievement of quality education and science, on the other, has been studied. Education, scientific achievements and innovations, in close unity with ethics, have been studied in relation to environmental protection and the achievement of welfare and prosperity. Special attention is paid to the current role of educational institutions in promoting The Concept of Sustainable Development through education. Emphasis is placed on the possibilities of higher education institutions to serve as a model for the actual application of this concept, and their graduates to be bearers of change and good practices in society.
