Abstract: It is more and more evident that we are before a human civilization crisis, provoked by the process of collision of this one with nature; which means a danger for the survival of the human species. The reason for which this process has failed is the dominating paradigm, and especially the elements token from the premises that sustain the standard economics. As long as the actual paradigm is maintained, the centres of power will keep sustaining focuses and concepts that have potential transformer, and also adopting sustainability politics that is largely sufficient. When serious problems appear, like the increasing oil shortage and the climate changing; the institutions of the government will announce the politics to resolve the problems, without the necessity to change the economic model, neither the conceptions that sustain it. However, the economic transformation inspired from the behaviors of nature and linked with the premises of the sustainable economics must begin soon.
