 note = {East Asian countries including China and south Korea have introduced environmental-friendly development strategies as early as in the beginning of this century. These phenomena confirm the influence and persuasive power of the idea, even though it still has no proper name and called “ecological modernisation”, “ecological structural change”, “green growth strategy”, etc., according to authors’ different perspectives. Whatever be called, ecological modernisation as defined, not as the harmonization of environmental concerns and economic growth based upon cost benefit analysis of environmental economics, but as economic and social progress through environmental protection, is the most successful policy idea in recent decades. This paper will describe its birth and development in west European nations especially in Germany and discuss its diffusion in the world. Then it will analyse the success and limitation of the strategy concerning welfare and income distribution in contemporary market economy. Ecological welfare, the idea of welfare defined by ecology and welfare produced by ecology will be proposed as the solution of the problems. The origin of the idea in the history of economic theory from the 18th century to the late 20th century will be treated briefly in the concluding chapter.},
