王道的世紀─永續發展 只欠東風
The Rule-by-Virtue Century—
The Missing Element for Sustainable Development
「永續發展」的論述欠缺了「王道文化」
二十多年來：「經濟」與「環境」的平衡發展有進展，「社會正義」無論國內或國際皆遇瓶頸
「文化」是「永續發展」的第四根支柱或基石？
Wang Dao is the missing element for “Sustainable Development”
In the last 20 years, development of social justice encounters its limit while the equilibrium of environmental and economic growth is attained with considerable progress
Is “culture” the fourth pillar or the structure of “Sustainable Development”?
What can Wang Dao help contribute to Sustainable Development?
