Decades of political ambivalence, housing injustice, and a neoliberal housing sector aided by the government’s lax approach to housing provision have meant that, private rental housing remains the predominant sector for housing urban residents and their shifting geographies into secondary cities. Residential satisfaction in urban areas provides an important socio-spatial view of the housing sector in secondary cities and its implications for the inclusive and sustainable development of small and medium-sized cities. Yet, a large set of studies into the private rental housing sector has paid little attention to the influence of housing services (i.e. satisfaction with maintenance services, utility services and privacy) on residential satisfaction amongst private rental households. Using an ordinal logistic regression model and based on a sample size of 246 private rental households, this paper examined the influence of sociodemographic and housing services (i.e. satisfaction with maintenance services, utility services and privacy) variables on residential satisfaction amongst private rental households living in Cape Coast, Ghana. The chi-square test revealed a significant relationship between duration of stay (χ² = 15.908, p = 0.003), satisfaction with maintenance service (χ² = 98.477, p = 0.000), satisfaction with utility services (electricity and water) (χ² = 45.934, p = 0.000), satisfaction with privacy (χ ² = 41.252, p = 0.000) and residential satisfaction. Further, the logistic regression analysis also showed a significant negative relationship between maintenance services (β = −3.928, p < 0.001), utility services (electricity and water) (β = −1.033, p < 0.001), privacy (β = −2.716, p < 0.01) and residential satisfaction. The findings call for the attention of both researchers and policymakers to recognize the inseparable relationship between housing and the broader built environment and to address challenges confronting the rental housing sector—considering that the quality of the residential environment is directly linked to the quality of life and the socio-physical well-being of residents.

几十年来的政治矛盾，住房不公正，以及政府宽松的住房供应方式所支持的新自由主义住房部门，意味着私人租赁住房仍然是城市居民居住的主要部门，他们的地理位置正在向二线城市转移。城市地区的居住满意度为二级城市住房部门及其对中小城市包容性和可持续发展的影响提供了重要的社会空间视角。然而，大量有关私人租赁房屋的研究，却很少关注房屋服务（即对维修服务、公用事业服务和私隐的满意程度）对私人租赁住户居住满意度的影响。本文使用有序逻辑回归模型，基于246个私人租赁家庭的样本量，研究了社会人口统计学和住房服务（即对维护服务、公用事业服务和隐私的满意度）变量对居住在加纳海岸角私人租赁家庭居住满意度的影响。卡方检验显示，住院时间（χ2 = 15.908, p = 0.003）、维修服务满意度（χ2 = 98.477, p = 0.000）、公用事业服务（水电）满意度（χ2 = 45.934, p = 0.000）、隐私满意度（χ2 = 41.252, p = 0.000）和居住满意度之间存在显著关系。此外，logistic回归分析也显示，维修服务之间呈显著负相关(β = - 3.928, p <；0.001)，公用事业服务（电力和水）(β = - 1.033, p <；0.001)，隐私(β = - 2.716, p <；0.01)和居住满意度。研究结果呼吁研究人员和政策制定者注意到住房与更广泛的建筑环境之间不可分割的关系，并解决租赁住房部门面临的挑战——考虑到居住环境的质量与居民的生活质量和社会-身体健康直接相关。

The decision to migrate is an important economic decision to make. Push factors, such as poverty, drought, lack of jobs, etc. are expected to play a role in forcing the youth to migrate. In the study area, however, youths of similar economic, demographic, and geographic background are observed to have different migration propensities. This paper examines the role of social capital in fostering migration aspiration and migration capability. The study employs both qualitative and quantitative data collected using a cross-sectional research design. In order to account for a potential interdependence between migration aspiration and migration capability, the seemingly unrelated bivariate probit model is used to analyze the data. After controlling some socio-economic and demographic variables, the results show a positive effect of social capital on both migration aspiration and migration capability. The findings indicate that broker influence (relative to job search) and age have a lower effect on the desire for migration, while Christianity has a higher effect relative to other religious beliefs. Findings indicate that farmers and the unemployed have lower migration ability compared to students. The presence of previous immigrants in the family also has a lower effect on migration ability.

移民是一项重要的经济决策。贫困、干旱、缺乏工作等推动因素预计将在迫使年轻人迁移方面发挥作用。然而，在研究区域，经济、人口和地理背景相似的年轻人被观察到有不同的移民倾向。本文考察了社会资本在促进移民意愿和移民能力方面的作用。本研究采用采用横断面研究设计收集的定性和定量数据。为了解释迁移愿望和迁移能力之间潜在的相互依赖关系，使用看似不相关的双变量probit模型来分析数据。在控制了一些社会经济和人口变量后，结果显示社会资本对移民意愿和移民能力都有正向影响。研究结果表明，经纪人影响（相对于求职）和年龄对移民意愿的影响较小，而基督教对其他宗教信仰的影响较大。研究结果表明，农民和失业人员的迁移能力低于学生。家庭中先前移民的存在对移民能力的影响也较低。

The role of land consolidation in regional development has been a popular topic in the fields of land system science and rural studies for facilitating rural revitalization. Although many conceptual and methodological advances have focused on quantifying the role of land consolidation at the macro- and meso-levels as well as the supply-demand of ecosystem services, addressing its role at the micro-level from the supply-demand perspective remains an open challenge. To address this gap, we develop an integrated conceptual framework to analyze the interrelationship between land use functions and structures and identify the demand from community revitalization for land use functions (LUFs). Using the Dongheng Community in rural China as a case study, an index system is established to measure the role of land consolidation from the perspective of functional supply and demand. The results indicate that the pattern of LUFs’ supply-demand in Dongheng Community has changed considerably since the beginning of the land consolidation program, in which the supply-demand gaps in the industrial production function are the most obvious. In addition, strategies from the perspectives of land use function/type conversion, enhancement, and supplementation have been proposed to narrow the functional supply-demand gap in Dongheng Community. Interestingly, the mismatch of functional supply and demand during the land consolidation program did not seem to have led to the decline of Dongheng, but rather to spur its revitalization and in situ urbanization. Moreover, policy recommendations are proposed in light of the case area. These findings offer new insight into the correlation between land use and rural development at the micro level, potentially contributing to the enhancement of land consolidation initiatives and the amelioration of rural concerns.

土地整理在区域发展中的作用一直是土地系统科学和乡村研究领域的热门话题，旨在促进乡村振兴。虽然许多概念和方法上的进步集中在量化宏观和中观层面的土地整理作用以及生态系统服务的供需，但从供需角度解决其在微观层面的作用仍然是一个开放的挑战。为了解决这一差距，我们开发了一个综合概念框架来分析土地利用功能和结构之间的相互关系，并确定社区振兴对土地利用功能（LUFs）的需求。以中国农村东横社区为例，从功能供给和需求的角度，建立了衡量土地整理作用的指标体系。结果表明：东横社区农用地供需格局自土地整理开始以来发生了较大变化，其中工业生产功能的供需缺口最为明显；此外，从土地利用功能/类型转换、增强和补充的角度提出了缩小东横社区功能供需缺口的策略。有趣的是，在土地整理过程中，功能供需的不匹配似乎并没有导致东横的衰落，反而刺激了东横的振兴和就地城市化。此外，还根据案例领域提出了政策建议。这些发现在微观层面上对土地利用与农村发展之间的关系提供了新的见解，可能有助于加强土地整理倡议和改善农村问题。

Gentrification has become a major force in shaping rural China, but less understood is why the processes and outcomes of gentrification vary so much from village to village. There is a growing academic interest in rural gentrification, but most of this research treats land primarily as an economic variable, while the cultural aspect of rural gentrification has also not been fully discussed. Based on a comparative study of tourism-led rural gentrification and charity-led rural gentrification, this paper explores the interrelationships among rural gentrification, land leasing and cultural change. It finds that during the process of gentrification, both villages undergo cultural changes characterised by aestheticisation, commercialisation and segregation. However, while Bei Village experiences disconnection from the land and cultural erasure due to tourism-led gentrification driven by private interests, Nan Village benefits from reconnection with the land and cultural reinvention supported by charity-led gentrification with a focus on the public good. The differences between the two villages are closely linked to the drivers of gentrification, cultural attitudes, spatial rent gap, and the different roles of local government. This study highlights the need to carefully examine the primary drivers of gentrification in different rural areas, while recognising land as a crucial cultural element beyond its economic, property and livelihood aspects.

中产阶级化已经成为塑造中国农村的主要力量，但人们不太了解的是，为什么中产阶级化的过程和结果在不同的村庄之间差异如此之大。学术界对农村中产阶级化的兴趣越来越大，但大多数研究主要将土地视为经济变量，而农村中产阶级化的文化方面也没有得到充分讨论。本文通过对以旅游为主导的乡村士绅化与以慈善为主导的乡村士绅化的比较研究，探讨乡村士绅化与土地租赁、文化变迁之间的相互关系。研究发现，在士绅化的过程中，两个村庄都经历了以审美化、商业化和隔离为特征的文化变迁。然而，由于私人利益驱动的旅游主导的士绅化，北村经历了与土地和文化的脱节，而南村则受益于与土地和文化的重新联系，这是由慈善主导的以公共利益为重点的士绅化所支持的。两个村庄之间的差异与士绅化的驱动因素、文化态度、空间租金差距以及地方政府的不同角色密切相关。这项研究强调有必要仔细研究不同农村地区中产阶级化的主要驱动因素，同时认识到土地是经济、财产和生计方面之外的重要文化元素。

This study examines the impact of mega shopping complexes (MSCs) on the survival of adjacent businesses in the Seoul Metropolitan Area (SMA), South Korea, from 2008 to 2023. Using mixed-effects Cox models, we analyzed three prevalent industrial sectors in commercial districts: food service, beauty, and recreation businesses. We found that MSC affects local businesses differently, depending on the services they offer. In food service businesses, only pubs face the risk of business failure due to the entry of MSC. Conversely, general restaurants, cafés, and beauty businesses showed no significant statistical impact. Recreation businesses are divided into two types based on the similarity of their services to those offered by MSC. After MSC entry, close proximity to the MSC yields a negative effect on establishments offering similar services, while benefiting those offering distinct services. This finding suggests that policies should focus more on enhancing the competitiveness of local businesses to effectively utilize the increased visibility rather than solely limiting the spillover effect of the MSC.

本研究考察了2008年至2023年韩国首尔都市圈（SMA）大型购物中心（MSCs）对邻近企业生存的影响。使用混合效应Cox模型，我们分析了商业区的三个主要工业部门：食品服务、美容和娱乐业务。我们发现，MSC对当地企业的影响是不同的，这取决于它们提供的服务。在餐饮服务行业中，只有酒吧会因为MSC的进入而面临经营失败的风险。相反，普通餐馆、咖啡厅和美容业没有明显的统计影响。根据娱乐业务与MSC提供的服务的相似性，娱乐业务分为两类。进入MSC后，靠近MSC会对提供类似服务的机构产生负面影响，而对提供不同服务的机构有利。这一发现表明，政策应更多地关注提高当地企业的竞争力，以有效利用可见度的提高，而不是仅仅限制MSC的溢出效应。

Cities in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) are undergoing socio-spatial transformations, including mega retail/marketplace infrastructure projects. While often celebrated, these projects also present adverse socioeconomic and environmental consequences, which we illustrate by turning to the Takoradi Central Market (TCM) in Ghana as a case study. Herein, we deploy infrastructural violence as a lens to interrogate these consequences by probing the nature and forms of violence resulting from (re)developing the TCM and the underlying institutional logics, processes, and practices reproducing them. Our findings suggest that the forms of violence experienced by traders from the TCM redevelopment manifest through marginalization, abjection, and deprivation. More crucially, we illuminate that these embodied forms of violence from the TCM infrastructure are co-constitutive and structural. That is, they are reproduced through the country's prevailing institutional logic and practices around urban planning and development, including centralized and technocratic infrastructure planning processes that are deeply embedded in tokenistic/symbolic participatory planning and partisan politics.

撒哈拉以南非洲（SSA）的城市正在经历社会空间转型，其中包括大型零售/市场基础设施项目。我们以加纳塔科拉迪中央市场（Takoradi Central Market，TCM）为案例，说明这些项目虽然常常受到赞誉，但也带来了不利的社会经济和环境后果。在此，我们以基础设施暴力为视角，通过探究（重新）开发塔科拉迪中央市场所产生的暴力的性质和形式，以及再现这些暴力的基本制度逻辑、过程和实践，来审视这些后果。我们的研究结果表明，商贩在中药材再开发过程中经历的暴力形式表现为边缘化、排斥和匮乏。更重要的是，我们发现这些来自中医药基础设施的暴力体现形式是共同构成和结构性的。也就是说，它们是通过该国普遍存在的城市规划和发展的制度逻辑和实践而再生产出来的，包括集中化和技术官僚化的基础设施规划过程，这些过程深深嵌入了象征性/符号化的参与性规划和党派政治之中。

In most of China's rural areas, there lies in a misallocation conflict between abundance of idle rural residential land (IRRL) and the scarcity of land used for the construction of beautiful and harmonious countryside (CBHC). It's a key challenge to effectively utilize and allocate these idle construction land resources to promote CBHC. This study developed a theoretical framework employing symbiosis theory to establish symbiotic system among multiple rural stakeholders, applied the selection principle of symbiotic interface to create the criteria for the IRRL reuse, and selected one IRRL to verify the construction strategy of public spaces. Using Silong village in Chongqing as a case study, the study unveiled the process and allocation mechanisms governing IRRL reuse from a patch-level perspective. The findings demonstrate that: (1) rural multi-subjects can use IRRL as a symbiotic interface to foster symbiotic relationships; (2) 26.92% and 73.08% of IRRL were allocated to public space and industrial land, respectively; (3) 57.14% of the IRRL for public space can serve residents across multiple village groups; and (4) retaining the original landscape pattern, enhancing infrastructure and incorporating local culture elements are principles for reusing IRRL in the development of public spaces. This study holds significant theoretical and practical implications for advancing CBHC, contributing to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and providing a Chinese sample for other developing countries worldwide.

在中国大部分农村地区，农村闲置宅基地（IRRL）的丰富性与美丽和谐乡村建设（CBHC）用地的稀缺性之间存在着错配矛盾。如何有效利用和配置这些闲置的建设用地资源，促进美丽和谐乡村建设，是一个关键的挑战。本研究运用共生理论构建理论框架，建立农村多方利益相关者之间的共生系统；运用共生界面的选择原则，创建IRRL再利用的标准，并选择一个IRRL来验证公共空间的建设策略。该研究以重庆四龙村为案例，从片区层面揭示了国际道路连接线再利用的过程和分配机制。研究结果表明(1）农村多元主体可以将综合整治用地作为共生界面，促进共生关系的形成；（2）分别有 26.92% 和 73.08% 的综合整治用地被分配给公共空间和工业用地；（3）57.14% 的综合整治用地用于公共空间，可以服务于多个村民小组的居民；（4）保留原有景观格局、加强基础设施建设和融入地方文化元素是综合整治用地在公共空间开发中再利用的原则。本研究对推进社区文化中心建设具有重要的理论和实践意义，有助于实现联合国可持续发展目标（SDGs），并为全球其他发展中国家提供了中国样本。

The exact number of rural homesteads in China is still unclear, and issues such as idle homesteads and “one household with multiple homesteads” are prevalent. These problems hinder rural economic development and the realization of common prosperity. This study calculated the rural homestead area (RHA) and per capita homestead area (PRHA) of 31 provinces and 8 geographical regions from 2009 to 2022, then analyzed the spatio-temporal changes of homestead area, per capita homestead area and per household homestead area. Finally, the typical homestead transfer modes in the eight regions of China were systematically studied and a national homestead transfer mode was proposed. The results show that: (1) From 2009 to 2022, RHA showed a trend of increased fluctuation. The change in RHA can be divided into two phases: rapid increase (2009–2019) and slow decrease phase (2020–2022). (2) Rural homesteads were primarily concentrated in East, Central, Southwest, and Northwest China. The distribution of RHA is affected by regional geographical conditions, rural population, economic structure, culture and policies. The growth rate of RHA in China displays a spatial pattern of “fast in the West, moderate in the central regions, and slow in the East”. (3) The PRHA of China increased yearly, and shows a significant spatial distribution characteristic of “larger in the North and smaller in the South”. China had a severe phenomenon of “one household with multiple homesteads”, with 466.15m²/per household in 2022. In most provinces, the per household homestead is in a state of moderate exceeded standards, while in Tibet and Hainan, it is extremely exceeded. (4) Northeast, Northwest, Central China, and the Qinghai-Tibet region, predominantly use the reclamation mode, while North and South China primarily adopt the rental mode; East China and the Southwest are more suited to the mortgage mode, and Central and North China can also facilitate land transfer through replacement mode. These findings are helpful to provide the data basis and theoretical basis for the reform of the homestead system for governments in different regions.

中国农村宅基地的具体数量尚不明确，宅基地闲置、"一户多宅 "等问题普遍存在。这些问题阻碍了农村经济的发展和共同富裕的实现。本研究计算了 2009 年至 2022 年 31 个省份和 8 个地理区域的农村宅基地面积（RHA）和人均宅基地面积（PRHA），然后分析了宅基地面积、人均宅基地面积和户均宅基地面积的时空变化。最后，系统研究了全国八大区域的典型宅基地流转模式，提出了全国宅基地流转模式。研究结果表明(1）从 2009 年到 2022 年，宅基地面积呈波动上升趋势。宅基地面积的变化可分为两个阶段：快速增加阶段（2009-2019 年）和缓慢减少阶段（2020-2022 年）。(2）农村宅基地主要集中在华东、华中、西南和西北地区。农村宅基地的分布受地区地理条件、农村人口、经济结构、文化和政策的影响。中国农村宅基地的增长速度呈现出 "西部快、中部缓、东部慢 "的空间格局。(3）中国农村居民人均可支配收入逐年增加，并呈现出明显的 "北大南小 "的空间分布特征。中国 "一户多宅 "现象严重，2022 年户均宅基地面积为 466.15 平方米。大部分省份户均宅基地处于中度超标状态，而西藏、海南等地则极度超标。(4）东北、西北、华中、青藏地区以开垦方式为主，华北、华南地区以租赁方式为主，华东、西南地区更适合抵押方式，华中、华北地区也可通过置换方式促进土地流转。这些研究结果有助于为各地政府的宅基地制度改革提供数据基础和理论依据。

Urban-rural integration (URI) plays a significant and irreplaceable role in promoting China's ongoing modernization. The digital economy (DE) has increasingly provided new opportunities for the development of URI. Despite these advancements, few studies have delved into the interaction between DE and URI. To address this gap, this paper explores the impact of DE on URI in China and examines the underlying driving mechanisms. Specifically, the study constructed a measurement system for URI across six dimensions (population integration, industrial integration, land integration, ecological integration, public integration, and science and education integration), after which we undertook a regression analysis. The results showed that: first, DE significantly promoted URI; second, the promotion effect of DE on URI was more pronounced in China's eastern region, non-border regions, large cities, and cities with a per capita GDP exceeding 100,000 CNY; and third, DE affects URI through three paths (labor transformation, green technological innovation, and financial resource allocation). Based on the theoretical evidence provided by our findings, we also draw out a series of policy recommendations for improving URI in China.

城乡一体化（URI）在推动中国现代化进程中发挥着不可替代的重要作用。数字经济（DE）为城乡一体化发展提供了越来越多的新机遇。尽管取得了这些进展，但很少有研究深入探讨数字经济与城乡一体化之间的互动关系。针对这一空白，本文探讨了数字经济对中国城市用户研究的影响，并研究了其背后的驱动机制。具体而言，本研究从六个维度（人口融合、产业融合、土地融合、生态融合、公共融合和科教融合）构建了城市发展指数的测量体系，并进行了回归分析。结果表明：第一，发展对城市发展指数具有显著的促进作用；第二，发展对城市发展指数的促进作用在中国东部地区、非沿边地区、大城市和人均 GDP 超过 10 万元的城市更为明显；第三，发展通过三条路径（劳动力转化、绿色技术创新和金融资源配置）影响城市发展指数。基于研究结果提供的理论证据，我们还提出了一系列改善中国城市发展指数的政策建议。
