LAND OWNERSHIP AND LAND USE DEVELOPMENT: THE INTEGRATION OF PAST, PRESENT, AND FUTURE IN SPATIAL PLANNING AND LAND MANAGEMENT POLICIES

摘要

Land Ownership and Land Use Development promises an interdisciplinary and empirically-based approach to the husbandry use, management, modeling, and planning of land. The book brings together peer-reviewed papers presented at two symposia (2014 and 2015) of the European Academy of Land Use and Development. The open access Portable Document Format download is organized in four general themes reflecting the multidisciplinary nature of land change science: (1) key terms in land, from land governance to land use planning; (2) decision-making processes, from urban development to flood risk management; (3) land pattern changes, from data modeling to land and property rights; and (4) future evolution in land policies, from strategies for developing building land to a combination of ecological and sociocultural sustainability.
