中文摘要：

随着城市化进程的不断加快、城镇建设规模的日益扩大，城市成为人类经济社会发展的主要空间载体。然而普遍存在的资源浪费现象已严重制约城市经济社会的协调与可持续发展，建设节约型城市就成为当今资源紧缺状态下的必然选择，也是落实科学发展观、建设效益城市的基本要求。本文从投入型节约、技术型节约、循环型节约、消费型节约、保护型节约等5个方面构建资源节约程度的评价指标体系，以资源极度匮乏且又是综合性工业生产基地的南京市为例，进行资源节约程度的评价，并就各指标1986年-2006年的变化特征进行分析，最后借助GDP增长拉动分析技术测度资源节约的驱动机制。研究结果表明：南京市的资源节约水平总体上在波动中不断提高；投入型节约是拉动资源节约的主导力量，消费型节约和技术型节约对节约型城市建设也起了重要的推动作用。最后提出资源节约型城市建设在今后工作的重点及方向。

英文摘要：

With the acceleration of urbanization and increasing scale of urban construction, cities have become major spatial centers of economic and social development. The problem of resource waste has become a constraint on coordinated and sustainable urban development. Therefore, building resourcesaving cities has become an inevitable choice due to the shortage of resources and the basic policy requirement of implementing scientific development. The most important concepts for resource-saving cities are saving, efficiency and recycling. In terms of sustainable development, measures should be taken on the efficient use of energy, land, water and materials, with support from technology, institutions and public participation. In recent years, in accordance with scientific development, the city of Nanjing in Jiangsu province is pursuing economic development and advancing towards new industrialization, including the construction of a resource conservation city. However, there is increased demand on resources due to continuous economic expansion and population growth. With limited resources, the environmental pressures and development costs will inevitably become long-term constraints on Nanjing. Therefore, scientific monitoring and the appraisal of resource conservation targets both have vital significance. Using the case study of Nanjing, this paper attempts to construct and evaluate an index for resource-conserving cities. We constructed an evaluation index system and then established a comprehensive model of inputs, technology, recycling, consumption, and protection. This paper also applies this index system to the evaluation of the status quo of resource utilization in Nanjing. We analyzed changes in characteristics and trends of all indices between 1986 and 2006, and studied the driving mechanisms of resource conservation in terms of GDP. The results indicate that the level of resource conservation is improving constantly. Input-based savings are a dominant force of resource conservation, technology-based savings play a
