前所未有的城市发展使得城市的可持续性成为政策制定者、学者和商界领袖的一个关键问题。这场新兴的城市危机对基于环境和经济的可持续发展方法提出了挑战，并凸显了文化在确保城市对子孙后代的生存能力方面所发挥的多方面和关键作用。文化为地方层面的可持续发展新方法提供了肥沃的土壤。这项研究对可持续城市文化理论做出了重要贡献，评估了文化指标作为决策者工具的使用情况，并包括四个亚洲城市的有用案例研究。
Unprecedented urban growth makes sustainability in cities a crucial issue for policy makers, scholars and business leaders. This emerging urban crisis challenges environment-based and economic-based approaches to sustainability, and brings to the forefront the multi-faceted and critical role that culture plays in ensuring that cities are viable for future generations. Culture provides fertile ground for new approaches to sustainable development at the local level. This study makes important contributions towards a theory on culture in sustainable cities, assesses the use of cultural indicators as a tool for policymakers, and includes useful case studies of four Asian cities.
