Abstract The interdisciplinary nature of the "Capability Approach" (CA) has resulted in its dissemination in abroad range of journals. As a result, the CA has spread to political philosophy and economic development and its scope has been expanded to be used as a theoretical framework in the creation of indicators on deprivation, quality of life or health. It has also been used to approach issues of higher education and the impact of technology on people\'s lives. The article offers an overview of the main concepts used in this approach, seeking to differentiate A. Sen and M. Nussbaum\'s proposals, in order to analyze sustainability and its inclusion in the approach agenda.
