Abstract
Globally, due to the obvious growing environmental, social, cultural and economic challenges facing our planet, it is only natural that we strive for models that will demonstrate an achievable sustainable future. On a planetary scale, there is hardly anything more appealing - but seemingly more elusive - than the opportunity to live in harmony with nature and each other. Eco-villages, as human habitats, i.e. comprehensive communities, both urban and rural, meet this need, because they are friendly integrated into the natural environment and have the ability to be successfully maintained in the future while respecting the principles of sustainability. Relations within the natural environment and towards that environment are matters of "ecological balance" par excellence. Consequently, today the village is perceived and viewed as an ecological model, where instead of a "place to live" it is viewed as a "place to rest".
Sažetak
Na globalnom nivou, zbog očiglednih rastućih ekoloških, društvenih, kulturnih i ekonomskih izazova sa kojima se naša planeta suočava, sasvim je prirodno težiti modelima koji će pokazati ostvarivu održivu budućnost. U planetarnim razmerama jedva da postoji nešto privlačnije - ali naizgled neuhvatljivije - od mogućnosti da živimo u skladu sa prirodom i jedni sa drugima. Eko-sela, kao ljudska staništa, odnosno sveobuhvatne zajednice, i urbane i ruralne, zadovoljavaju tu potrebu jer su prijateljski integrisane u prirodno okruženje i imaju sposobnost da se uspešno održavaju i u budućnosti uz poštovanja načela održivosti. Odnosi unutar prirodne sredine i prema toj sredini su pitanja "ekološke ravnoteže" par excellance. Shodno tome, selo se danas percipira i posmatra kao ekološki model, gde se umesto "mesta za život" ono posmatra kao "mesto za odmor".
