“…With regard to the redevelopment mode, scholars have found that compared with the top-down approach, the bottom-up institutional arrangement enables villagers to benefit more from redevelopment and for this reason is effective at increasing their redevelopment willingness [10][11][12]. This is partly because the village collective can significantly reduce the transaction costs associated with the negotiation process [12,13].…”

“…Property factors such as illegal construction are also highlighted as having an effect on villagers' redevelopment willingness [9]. In relation to the redevelopment modes, scholars have argued that in comparison with a top-down approach such as a government-led mode, a bottom-up institutional arrangement can be more effective in promoting the redevelopment willingness of villagers [10][11][12][13].…”

As a crucial part of China’s development strategy, the redevelopment of urban villages and the redevelopment willingness of villagers have attracted considerable scholarly interest. However, the literature to date has neglected the effect of the geographical location of urban villages on the redevelopment willingness of villagers. The purpose of this study is to examine the influential factors of the redevelopment willingness of urban villagers, especially with regard to geographical differences and their effects. Based on prospect theory and 1083 questionnaires administered in 45 selected urban villages in Guangzhou, we use the ordinal logistic regression model to explore the influential factors behind villagers’ redevelopment willingness in inner villages (<15 km from the city center), urban fringe villages (15–40 km from the city center), and suburban villages (>40 km from the city center). The results show that in inner villages the confirmation of residential land rights can significantly increase redevelopment willingness, but in urban fringe villages the number of stories in dwelling houses significantly decreases the willingness. Further, a high level of villagers’ trust in the government, market enterprises, and the village collective each has a significant positive impact on the redevelopment willingness of villagers in urban fringe villages. However, only trust in the government and market enterprises have significant positive impacts on redevelopment willingness in the inner villages and only trust in the village collective is significant in this regard in suburban villages. The effects of geographical differences imply that China’s redevelopment policy should be applied in a differentiated way based on the geographical locations of urban villages.

“…In order to distribute the benefits from urban renewal, local governments, villages, and developers formed different relationships to promote urban redevelopment [31]. Urban renewal has also been explored in diversified modes, some led by the villagers or the developers in a bottom-up spatial governance [28,29,38].…”

“…Some studies have analyzed the institutional change from state-dominant to bottom-up redevelopment, but they mainly focus on distribution of economic benefits among stakeholders rather than the difference in multidimensional impacts on local villagers between different modes [31]. Yuan, et al, compared the difference in duration of top-down and bottom-up urban village redevelopment projects, to explore the effectiveness of different redevelopment modes under the framework of institutional arrangement [38].…”

“…Finally, this study focused on the difference in the decision-making direction of top-down and bottom-up redevelopment. However, different decision-making redevelopment mode may be intertwined with various funding sources [38]. Therefore, we should pay more attention to the differences in the same decision-making redevelopment mode and their implementation effects in the future.…”

Blending Bottom-Up and Top-Down Urban Village Redevelopment Modes: Comparing Multidimensional Welfare Changes of Resettled Households in Wuhan, China

2020

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Urban village redevelopment has multidimensional impacts on resettled households. These impacts can reflect the sustainability of urban village redevelopment. This study empirically compares the gains and losses of the welfare in economic conditions, living conditions, natural environment, psychological conditions, and social security in bottom-up and top-down urban village redevelopment cases in Wuhan, China. The results show that a bottom-up redevelopment mode with participative residents caused negative effects in economic welfare but positive effects on living conditions, natural environment, and psychological condition, thus promoting higher comprehensive welfare and satisfaction. Top-down redevelopment led by the government provides villagers with shared dividends through collective economic reform and thus, contributes to gains in economic conditions and social security. However, top-down redevelopment with less participation of residents leads to welfare losses in living conditions, natural environment, and psychological conditions, which results in lower welfare and satisfaction levels overall. Therefore, a middle-out redevelopment mode with a combination of government efforts and public participation are proposed as a solution for sustainable urban redevelopment.
