“…Tagliarino et al proposed that negative socioeconomic impacts are caused by land acquisition without adequate compensation, and they thought a transparent and participatory process should be fulfilled during land expropriation and community compensation [33]. As a result, due to dissatisfaction with land expropriation compensation, there is conflict between farmers and land expropriators [58,59].…”

Scholars have paid much attention to the problems existing in the land expropriation risk assessment system and the sound countermeasures from a qualitative perspective. Empirical research on land expropriation social stability risk assessment from the micro-level perspective is limited. This study analyzed the Chinese social stability risk assessment system of land expropriation though a case study of a land expropriation project in China. The current social stability risk assessment system of land expropriation, which includes the assessment purposes, principles, contents, methods, and results, was analyzed. We concluded with lessons and deficiencies from the current social stability risk assessment system. The research findings show that: (1) the current land expropriation risk assessment system mostly takes the land administration department as the main body of responsibility, identifies the risks by means of seminars, visits, letters, and visits, and takes the opinion of the masses or experts as the risk assessment result. (2) The current land expropriation risk assessment system should be standardized in terms of defining the risk assessment of land expropriation, improving the land expropriation risk assessment system and optimizing land expropriation assessment procedures. This paper provides a reference for the sustainable development of land use in rural and urban areas in China.

“…In the case of GLOBE’s cultural dimensions, Zhao et al (2015) and Han et al (2018) have applied the nine dimensions at regional level studies in China. However, the definition of regional culture dimensions remains ambiguous and not well-established yet because culture’s effects on regional innovation have either been studied through explorative qualitative research (Aoyama, 2009; Tödtling et al , 2011a) or quantitatively tested with existing dimensional scales which were developed for national culture but have been applied to regional level (Kaasa and Vadi, 2010; Kwon, 2012).…”

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore the relationship between culture and regional innovation performance in China where innovation is deemed as a key for sustainable economic development. The diversity of China’s regional culture and its rising economic and innovative capability enhancement provides an opportunity for such an exploration. Design/methodology/approach This paper adopts the GLOBE’s nine cultural dimensions to empirically examine the relationship between culture and Chinese regional innovation performance through multiple regression analysis. Findings The study results find that performance orientation and gender egalitarianism have positive and significant influences on regional innovation performance, while institutional collectivism has a negative and significant influence. The remaining six GLOBE cultural dimensions show no significant effect on regional innovation performance. Originality/value To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this is the first research exploring the relationship between culture and regional innovation performance in a Chinese context by using GLOBE’s cultural dimensions that are deemed as a valuable empirical alternative to Hofstede’s cultural measures. The results of this study help further the understanding of the cultural influence in China’s regional innovation performance.

“…The urban villages are dirty, messy, poor, and even regarded as 'China's slum' [14,38]. Given increasing government-homeowner conflicts during large-scale urban village redevelopment in China, it has been a social and academic focus to study what are the causes of and how to address the conflicts [1,17,18]. Many studies argue that compensation is the most important cause for government-homeowner conflicts.…”

This study aims to provide new knowledge for the governments to enact more effective policies to proceed housing redevelopment programs. We conducted a survey on local urban villagers in Hangzhou city of China. Overall, our results provide valuable theoretical and practical implications for sustainable urban development. Firstly, we found that more reasonable compensation and more respecting justice and democracy during redevelopment implementation increases people's acceptance of government's housing redevelopment program. Secondly, we demonstrated that experiences from social learning, such as government-homeowner conflicts and quality of living of other homeowners who have experienced similar programs, and people's own historical housing redevelopment experience, significantly influence their acceptance of the program. Thirdly, if the governments ensure more justice and democracy, it largely enhances effectiveness of compensation in promoting people's acceptance of the housing redevelopment programs.
