This work aims to expand the discussion on the intersection between sustainability assessment, Law, and Legal Sciences, from the perspective of the principle of eco-ethical responsibility, essential for the formation of truly sustainable societies. An interdisciplinary literature review was carried out, addressing the ethical foundations proposed by philosophers such as Jonas and Levinas, and exploring how these principles have been incorporated into contemporary legal structures. Furthermore, the role of environmental legislation and legal instruments in promoting balanced development was analyzed, considering the impacts of technological advances on natural resources and the importance of ensuring sustainability in its multiple dimensions: environmental, social, economic, and cultural. It is argued that, in addition to being an instrument of ethical assessment, sustainability requires a robust legal framework that implements the principle of intergenerational responsibility. Therefore, it is concluded that the integration between ecoethics and Law is fundamental for the construction of effective public policies and for the engagement of society in the search for sustainable solutions.
