Abstract
Various nations and international organisations have recently presented new indicators measuring societal progress beyond GDP. However, focusing on model sustainable societies upon which these indicators depend is not very common. Under such circumstances, the purpose of the present study is to reveal commonalities of the sustainable society that account for these indicators. As a result of the text analysis, the commonalities were identified in three hierarchical categories. In the first category, subjective well-beings were identified along with environment, economy and society, while innovation, social capital and governance were identified in the second category.
