Abstract
Land is the most basic production factor of social and economic development, and the allocation of land re-sources is an important means of regulating social and economic development. At present, the contradiction between the needs of economic and social development and the increasingly scarce space resources puts forward new requirements for the allocation of land re-sources in China, and the importance of rational allocation of land resources is increasing day by day. During the reform period of land and space planning system, rational allocation of land resources not only means in-tensive and sustainable development, but also becomes a new expression of the will of land and space governance. It is a governance coordination platform linking macro development policies and micro resource utilization, and an important way to achieve high-quality development. Taking spatial governance as a clue, this paper attempts to sort out the evolution of governance logic behind land resource allocation in the Chinese context, traces back the previous logical transformation of land resource allocation that germinated due to the reform of social and economic system, and divides it into four characteristic stages: planned governance, regulatory governance, policy governance and bottom line governance. Based on the analysis of the governance mode and difficulties faced under the background of “bottom line governance”, this paper puts forward the “three bottom lines” of building the governance pattern of land resource allocation, clarifies the function-al boundaries of the three main bodies of government, market and society in the process of land resource allocation, and emphasizes the spatial governance mode of government, market and society, so as to provide useful suggestions for the design of future spatial planning system.
