生存空间和生活资源相对匮乏的中国社会,需要严格的社会规则下的生存.

mean that

The Chinese society lacks living spaces and natural resources and thus needs to live under strict society rules

does it make any sense to you?

方形是中国古代城市建筑最基本的形态,在“方”的形制之中体现了中国文化中以纲常伦理为代表的社会生活规则。生存空间和生活资源相对匮乏的中国社会,需要严格的社会规则下的生存。对规则的尊重是提升人的社会层次的唯一途径。这不免有些负面的成分,但规则并不限制智慧的光芒。中国历史上经典的文化成果及千古传颂的人物,无不是这种规则与灵性的复合体,一个尊重现实规则而又灵光四射的事物,必然是易于被人接受的。

《传统文化与建筑功能完美结合——国家游泳中心“水立方”》

生存空间和生活资源相对匮乏的中国社会,需要严格的社会规则下的生存.

Relatively, Chinese society is lack of living space and resources, so it needs to keep its order ( = keep “existing生存”) under strict social rules.

does it make any sense to you?

The Chinese sentence does make enough sense to me.

Is that clear?

Cheers!

Yes, thank you. It's just that I thought that Chinese society was full of living spaces and natural resources. But probably I was wrong. You certainly know better!!

It is, but have you seen the sheer number of people that want them? :)
