Abstract

The intensification of the globalization, parallel with the amplification of the environment, climate change, circular economy, social economy have led to several debates in order to find the right solutions for increasing the cohesion at the mezzo and microeconomic level in each country. This paper sustains the need to transfer the idea of "globalization" to the regional / local policies and strategies level regarding environmental preservation and climate change mitigation, which will lead to: a new economic geography; to let the regions' capacity to build legislative and institutional infrastructures to protect and restore the environment in the context of climate change; revaluation of the place and role of local / regional biodiversity; identifying opportunities for developing community-specific horizontal activities, etc. This paper proposes a shift to changing the role of the "engines" supporting the globalization process as well as the transposition of the world's sustainable development policies and strategies to the regional requirements of each country according to the priorities and the level of community development for increasing social cohesion at the level of each state, in line with the UN's vision of 17-th SDGs defined at the UN General Assembly regarding Sustainable Development, on September 2015.
