| Abstract: | Ecological livability points out the direction for the realization of environmental sustainability and livable sustainability. According to the interaction between ecological livability and sustainable rural development (SRD), this study deconstructed the concept of SRD and selected the corresponding indicators to construct the SRD index system with universal value. We divided SRD into two dimensions: rural ecological sustainability and rural livable sustainability. The former was described by green production and waste disposal, while the latter was represented by public service and social amenity. To demonstrate the application of the SRD index system, we chose China as an example. Through empirical measurement, this study found that the SRD in China was unbalanced and inadequate, and had the characteristics of spatial differentiation. We also explored the direction that can be improved in each region of China. The SRD index system can measure the level of SRD comprehensively and quantitatively, providing a useful reference for each country to analyze the situation of SRD. It is of practical significance to guide the development of ecological livability and achieve SRD. |
