ABSTRACT Social integration plays a key role in the quality of life of the elderly who move from a rural to an urban area (land-lost elderly), and successful urban integration is known to develop harmony and age-friendly society. Very few studies are concerned with incorporating subjective as well as objective elements into measuring social integration levels of land-lost elderly. In this study, we measured and compared social integration levels between different neighbourhoods of land-lost elderly. We found land-lost elderly in the public housing neighbourhoods, and compared to the commodity housing elderly, they have a higher level of social integration in three aspects: having positive attitudes towards urban life, having high participation rate in activities, and participating activities with neighbours. This is because the elderly living in public housing have neighbours from similar socio-demographic groups and have more social interactions. In addition, the built environments are closely related to social integration levels of the elderly in both neighbourhoods, but effects in the two neighbourhoods present a few differences; the improvement in social environments can greatly facilitate social integration of elderly living in public and commodity housing neighbourhoods, especially for improvement in social contacts with neighbours.

ABSTRACT Following the expansion of NATO in 2004 and the EU in 2007, Romania has become the Eastern frontier of these structures, which lends Romanian borders a strategic role. The territorial development of a border area is influenced by the political, economic, socio-cultural, demographic characteristics of the neighbouring countries sharing the same border. The border areas of Romania include 898 Local Administrative Units (LAU), of which 88 are urban. Romania has a border line (2956.4 km, of which 63.5% is non-European Union border) with the following countries: Bulgaria, the Republic of Moldova, Serbia, Ukraine, Hungary. The current paper seeks to identify the territorial disparities in the urban development of the Romanian border areas by 3 secondary indexes in order to reflect the main territorial development aspects: competitiveness (TComp), cohesion (TCoh), and sustainability (TSust). Lastly, the authors were able to establish the Index of Territorial Development (ITD) revealing the levels of territorial development. Assessing the competitiveness, cohesion and sustainability levels of urban centres is a useful and necessary stage, done through this study, for establishing those socio-economic fields, those towns and border sectors which are less developed, requiring attention from the regional, national and local administrations, reflected in investments.

ABSTRACT This research note reviews recent literature on the vulnerability of critical infrastructures caused by climate change with a focus on the Nordic countries. We integrate literature from three research areas: the role of critical infrastructures in the functioning of society, infrastructural vulnerabilities, and the long-term impacts of climate change. Focusing on climate change adaptation in the Nordic countries as a pivotal case, we discuss the mutually constitutive interrelationships between these three areas. The studies reviewed bring together social science and humanities research on infrastructure systems, their vulnerabilities, and climate change. By highlighting interdisciplinary perspectives on infrastructures, climate change, and societal security, this research note discusses a Nordic model of infrastructure provision and links the Nordic debate to a burgeoning European discussion on the role of the social sciences and humanities in addressing societal challenges related to climate change and the role of infrastructures in providing welfare.

ABSTRACT To what extent territorial cohesion is achieved or not, due to the EU Cohesion Policy, national regional policies, or globalization forces, is debated. This paper aims at discussing territorial cohesion at a NUTS 3 level in Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden for 2007 and 2017 by using the Territorial Cohesion Development Index. The findings indicate a) that bigger cities and highly urbanized regions in Denmark, Finland and Sweden perform very well in the Territorial Cohesion Development Index, while non-core and peripheral regions fell further behind; and b) all Norwegian regions and the Åland Islands have high scores in the Territorial Cohesion Development Index. The findings indicate a need to resuscitate the national regional policies in Denmark, Finland and Sweden to counteract the increasing gap between the capital region and the rest of the regions.

ABSTRACT Tourism and natural resources are rapidly changing in the Arctic. Human activities and climate change are transforming natural landscapes and affecting populations of wildlife, while remote Arctic destinations that were previously regarded as inaccessible and unattractive are being engulfed by the global increase in tourism. In parallel with these developments, the concept and practice of “sustainable tourism” is gaining weight. Connecting these two trends raises multiple questions, including how tourism affects natural resources in the Arctic and whether sustainable Arctic tourism is possible. We conduct a systematic review of scientific publications connecting tourism and natural resources in the Arctic in order to shed light on the environmental dimensions of sustainable tourism. Based on our review, we highlight the multidirectional relationship between tourism and natural resources, and we use southern Greenland as a concrete example of an Arctic destination to which we tie our discussion of “sustainable tourism” in both theory and practice. We conclude that framing sustainable tourism as a relative and comparative concept specific to the time, place and type of tourism activity, rather than as a set of general and ideal criteria, might be more applicable and meaningful in research and as a development strategy for tourism destinations.

ABSTRACT Agriculture needs a radical transition towards a more sustainable model. Multi-Level Perspective has gained prominence as a framework for analysing sustainable transitions. However, Multi-Level Perspective has received criticism for the unclear operationalization of its hierarchical levels and bias towards bottom-up change. This longue durée study applies the Multi-Level Perspective framework to the case of the Danish dairy cattle sector to understand the foundations for sustainable agricultural transitions, and in doing so addresses these Multi-Level Perspective critiques. The results highlighted system elements that have persisted over time to reveal stable, recurring patterns. These patterns helped delineate the system’s deep structure. Our results show that uncovering this deep structure is key to understanding how actors and elements come together to either permit or constrain development pathways. Thus, integration and alignment with these actors and elements will be necessary to extend the possibilities for future agricultural transitions. Finally, understanding a system’s deep structure can correct Multi-Level Perspective’s bias towards bottom-up change.

ABSTRACT The research note assesses the prospects of development through extractive industries in north Patagonia (Argentina), a region that holds considerably large unconventional oil and gas deposits. The author applies the linkage approach from the literature on global value chains, paying particular attention to backward and forward production linkages because they may trigger a structural transformation of the regional economy. He finds that north Patagonian firms have managed to plug into the upstream sector. There are efforts to facilitate an unconventional hydrocarbon cluster and even hopes of local firms venturing into markets abroad, which would enable them to become specialized suppliers. However, their present role is largely limited to the provision of generic products and services, and it appears unlikely that this will change due to financial and other constraints. Even though north Patagonia benefits from linkages, the disillusioning findings lead the author to call for a less optimistic understanding of linkage-based development in global value chains: resource peripheries may be stuck at a level of generic, low value-added activities.

ABSTRACT In recent decades, we have witnessed a move towards a further protection of central urban cores through introduction of retail planning in Denmark. Recent changes in legislation have significantly changed these principles through a planning reform as proposed by the liberal government and adopted by Danish parliament in 2017. The change in legislation fits with a longer trend of liberalization of spatial planning in Denmark since the mid-2000s. 4th of June 2019 it was announced that the building of a high- rise tower and accompanying shopping district was put on hold by the developer. A project proposed for outside the town of Brande, which due to its radical appearance had caused a stir in architectural- and urban planning communities. Before the 2017 planning reform, such a project would be impossible due to the retail planning sections in the Danish planning act. This purpose of this article is to unfold the project in Brande, the change in legislation, which made it possible, and the precedence it sets for Danish urban planning. The change in planning legislation and practice is contextualized with a historical background for Danish urban planning, and the change in planning principles is set in an international- and theoretical context.

ABSTRACT Residents’ activity-related travel patterns are not only based on short-term decisions but also impacted by long-term factors, such as attitudes and past behaviours that have developed in people’s daily lives. This study examines the impacts of service facility accessibility, past behaviours and travel attitudes on activity-related travel patterns among relocated residents from the urban centre of Kunming, China to a suburb. This study applied path analysis modelling to explore the influencing mechanisms of activity-related travel behaviours after relocation. The results showed that residential relocation led to a reduction in commuting time, whereas it was not found to have significant effects on car use for commuting. As for non-working activities and related car use, for activities, travel attitudes and past behaviours had a more positive effect on the frequency of shopping and social network activities than on the effects of service facility accessibility. Car use for these activities tends to be for trips of social network activity. Shopping activities may be replaced by online shopping, and derived trips also reduced. The study contributes to the literature on residential relocation and travel behaviours and to the connection between past behaviours and attitudes and travel behaviours.
