The preservation of historical and cultural districts has become an important issue for urban development. Through literature review and case analysis, the six success factors are summarized in this article for historical and cultural district preservation: historical and cultural heritage, public participation, government actions, community construction, economic subsidies, and landscape appearance. By using the interpretive structure model to integrate the success factors, it has been concluded that historical and cultural heritage is the most basic factor. The results of this research provide an effective reference to enhance the preservation of historical areas.","PeriodicalId":340622,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Environmental Sustainability and Protection","volume":"304 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116606756","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hence, a sustainable perspective is sensible to scrutinize tremendous urban transformation in rapidly growing global cities. This paper focuses on studentification-induced urban transformation and attempts to establish an evaluation framework revolving around sustainability through a systematic review of relevant literature on studentification. The new framework is designed to be more global, mutually beneficial, and operable, consisting of 5 dimensions, 19 criteria, and 37 indicators. Subsequently, an analytic hierarchy process (AHP) is suggested to analyze the value of indicators. Finally, this paper contributes to the research on sustainable urban transformation. There is a need to pay more attention to local constructs and the estimation of weights in the index system for studentification-induced urban transformation within the rubric of sustainability.","PeriodicalId":340622,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Environmental Sustainability and Protection","volume":"51 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129658999","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
