The coordinated socio-economic development plays a critical role in sustainable development of Jiangsu.On the basis of connotation of regional coordinated development and present situation of economy and society in this province,this paper conducts a study on the process and structure of coordinated development between society and economy in urban areas by establishing evaluation system of coordinated development between economy and society.Some conclusions can be drawn as follows.(1) The process of coordinated development can be divided into four stages: fluctuation period,increase period,fallback period and steady period.(2) Southern Jiangsu has become the upland of coordinated development.Nanjing presents a fallback phenomenon,and Suqian has the lowest level.(3) The coordinated development degree of Northern Jiangsu is lower than that of Southern Jiangsu,and the gap between these cities is widening.
