• Abstract:

  This work aims at analyzing the link between the new category of cultural sustainability and the Bahá’í religion. The further objective of this essay is to present itself as an innovative and original work that establishes a connection between two seemingly distant fields of study, the religious domain and the secular one, sustainability, showing that these entities have the ability to synergize and mutually support each other both in theoretical terms and in the pursuit of social improvement as a shared objective. In this work I aim to pursue the objectives, as mentioned in the introduction, of critically highlighting, relying on some theories and categories of the history of religions and anthropology, some of the actions proposed by the Bahá’í International Community, with the ambition to acknowledge that each individual must contribute to the construction of a more just and peaceful social order; moreover to start the process of social betterment of the society with application, and diffusion of knowledge.
