Abstract
Are natural facilities chance or limitation for long term economic and social-cultural development? There are numerous historical findings saying how the heritage of reach natural wealth made many nations ineffective, not sufficiently active and open to changes, hence the natural resources have, in a certain way, decreased the role of human capital and its improvement through history. It has been shown that technology advanced nations have emerged on very feeble assumptions for natural development. Farming land, energetic resources, the wealth of biodiversity and forests, hydrograph conditions and similar can alter the balance between desires and possibilities, or to affect negatively to development and the evolution of natural facilities. In the case of Serbia, the problem of natural facilities is intertwined with turbulent economic and social heritage, dynamic changes of urban and rural structures, as well as with problems with economy in general. However, looking through natural assumptions for economically sustainable and harmonic economic growth, we can determine opportunities for nurture of positive tradition in combined with modernisation. Infrastructure and better quality of education could spark better using of local resources towards sustainable local development... Culture, tradition and nature, regardless of current demographic flows and migrations, could offer the development of different rural/urban economic entities that will compensate losses due to dying of traditional villages in Serbia.
Sažetak
Da li su prirodne pogodnosti šansa ili ograničenje za dugoročni privredni i sociokulturni razvoj? Mnogi istorijski nalazi govore o tome da je nasleđe bogate prirode mnoge nacije učinilo nedelotvornim, nedovoljno aktivnim i otvorenim za promene, pa su prirodni resursi na izvestan način umanjili ulogu ljudskog kapitala i njegovog unapređivanja kroz istoriju. Pokazalo se da su tehnološki najnaprednije nacije nastajale na veoma slabim prirodnim pretpostavkama razvoja. Obradivo zemljište, energenti, bogatstvo biodiverziteta i šume, uslovi za ispašu, hidrografija i sl., mogu da poremete sklad između želja i mogućnosti, odnosno da negativno utiču na razvoj i evoluciju problema prirodnih pogodnosti. U slučaju Srbije problem prirodnih pogodnosti ili ograničenja tesno je važan sa turbulentnim ekonomsko-političkim nasleđem, dinamičnim promenama urbanih i ruralnih struktura, kao i strukturnim problemima privrede uopšte. Ipak, sagledavajući prirodne pretpostavke Srbije za ekološki održiv i harmoničan privredni razvoj, mogu se konstatovati prilike koje se pružaju u negovanju pozitivne tradicije u kombinaciji sa modernizacijom. Infrastruktura i kvalitetnije obrazovanje bi mogli da podstaknu bolju uposlenost lokalnih resursa, u pravcu održivog privrednog razvoja... Kultura, tradicija i priroda, bez obzira na trenutne demografske tokove i migracije, mogu da ponude razvoj koncepta drugačijih ruralno-urbanih privrednih celina koje će nadomestiti gubitke usled odumiranja tradicionalnih sela u Srbiji.
