Abstract

As a spatial manifestation of the contradictions in the human–land relationship, land–use conflicts (LUCs) have profound impacts on sustainable regional development. LUCs in China are intricately linked to urban land-use efficiency (ULUE). However, the question of how ULUE influences LUCs has not been fully explored. To address this gap, this study uses a spatial econometric model and threshold regression model to investigate the impact of ULUE on LUCs, with a focus on the central ChengduChongqing region of China as a case study. The findings demonstrate a nonlinear relationship between ULUE and LUCs in the region, where the increase in ULUE initially mitigates LUCs but subsequently exacerbates and stimulates LUCs. This relationship is formed by the combined impact of urban factor substitution and factor agglomeration effects: ULUE directly affects LUCs through the factor substitution effect, and economic growth mediates the impact of ULUE on LUCs through the factor agglomeration effect. This study presents a refined and augmented understanding of the correlation between ULUE and LUCs and provides both theoretical and practical guidance for the effective management of LUCs as well as the sustainable utilization of land resources.

有效的城市土地利用能否缓解土地利用冲突？来自中国中部成渝地区的经验证据

土地利用冲突作为人地关系矛盾的空间表现形式，对区域可持续发展有着深远的影响。中国的土地利用效益与城市土地利用效率（ULUE）有着错综复杂的联系。然而，超低利用价值如何影响最低利用价值的问题尚未得到充分探讨。为了弥补这一差距，本研究采用空间计量模型和阈值回归模型，以中国中部成渝地区为例，研究了城市土地利用效率对土地利用价值的影响。研究结果表明，该地区的土地利用价值与土地利用价值之间存在非线性关系，其中土地利用价值的增加最初会减轻土地利用价值，但随后会加剧和刺激土地利用价值。这种关系是由城市要素替代效应和要素集聚效应共同作用形成的：城市最低利用价值通过要素替代效应直接影响土地利用价值，经济增长通过要素集聚效应中介城市最低利用价值对土地利用价值的影响。本研究对土地利用价值与土地利用价值之间的关系进行了精细化和拓展的认识，为土地利用价值的有效管理和土地资源的可持续利用提供了理论和实践指导。

期刊介绍： Land Use Policy is an international and interdisciplinary journal concerned with the social, economic, political, legal, physical and planning aspects of urban and rural land use. Land Use Policy examines issues in geography, agriculture, forestry, irrigation, environmental conservation, housing, urban development and transport in both developed and developing countries through major refereed articles and shorter viewpoint pieces.
