Sažetak
The article investigates the main aspects of bioregionalism as an idea, social movement, the organization of social life and model of development, which contributes to the protection of the environment and integral sustainability. Bioregionalism is understood as a concept that refers to the complex environmental protection, guided by the type of development. Complete organization of bioregional community (society) – including economy, politics and social system – is arranged so as to satisfy the needs of its population by improving the quality of life, while at the same time trying not to pollute the environment or go beyond the capacity of its own territory. In conclusion, we attempted to answer the questions why is bioregionalism necessary in the context of contemporary civilization’s ecological, economic and social crisis, how can it assist in gradually overcoming the crisis, and why is it relevant in the context of Croatian development.
