The Multi-Dimensional Framework of Human Civilization: A Systematic Theory of Civilizational Leapfrogging and Sustainable Development

The Multi-Dimensional Framework of Human Civilization constitutes a dynamically closed-loop system comprising five core dimensions: the Value Dimension, the Institutional Dimension, the Transformation Dimension, the Dynamic Dimension, and the Carrier Dimension. It establishes a unified explanatory logic: values set the direction, institutions build the framework, leapfrogging breaks bottlenecks, science provides dynamics, and talent serves as the carrier. The framework advances civilization studies into a rigorous social science theory, revealing the universal laws governing the emergence, operation, leapfrogging, and sustainable development of modern civilization. It provides a unified paradigm and analytical tool for cross-civilizational comparative research, the exploration of independent modernization pathways, and innovations in global governance.
