“…This is, as Wu (2002) argued, a simplified theoretical deduction. In a complex geographical context, the actual land development propensity is affected by various attributes, ranging from the physical characteristics of development sites to planning control and “zone fever” (Qiu & Xu, 2017). In addition, scholars have demonstrated that the fundamental factors, such as parcel size, property rights, and agriculture land rent, are of primary importance in determining the pattern of urban land use as well (Colwell & Munneke, 1997; Lai et al., 2008; Seto & Kaufmann, 2003).…”

“…It is the pursuit for rent gaps and the attempt to regularize declined areas into new production spaces that form the impetus of the property‐oriented redevelopment (Gao et al., 2017; He & Wu, 2005; Wu, 2003). Particularly, skyrocketing housing prices in contemporary China have created property bubbles by attracting increasing investment into the section of real estate (Ding, 2004; Qiu & Xu, 2017). By the pie chart in Figure 4, the area of residence‐oriented redevelopment was about four times more than the commerce‐led.…”

The bid‐rent curve has long been recognized as a persistent law in urban and regional studies. We challenge this orthodox theory by highlighting two limitations in demystifying patterns of urban land redevelopment and rural land use utility in transitional China. Empirical evidence shows that distance still matters to both urban and rural land use transition. However, the property‐oriented and scale‐sensitive functional structure of redevelopment is not exactly what Alonso suggested. The temptation of urbanization, coupled with the resistance of rural revitalization, results in an inverted bid‐rent curve in terms of the utilization of rural housing land. The dual‐track nature of both urban–rural household registration (hukou) and land use systems contributes a lot for these unconventional findings. We can therefore summarize that transition of land use in both urban and rural China is largely institutionally driven, and the Chinese government is the dominant agent of creating a unique trajectory of spatial restructuring.

“…Thereafter, land use right transactions in urban areas created a primary land market. The transactions through primary land market formulate the formal land development procedure and represent the process of market-driven urbanization in China [19].…”

“…Meanwhile, the informal land-development activities dominate fringe areas, considering the massive success of the township and village enterprises and the undergoing fastest urbanization process in the world [14,15,40]. The hybrid system of mixing state and collective land ownership, market/non-market transfer of land use rights, and the previous path-dependent land allocation system was further linked to the state system of administration and planning, which is contingent upon local geographic and social [19]. This creates unique land resource allocation and urbanization processes among Chinese cities.…”

“…Based on empirical study results, Qiu and Xu [19] summarized the land development activities in Shanghai into five modes: State-led Market-based Land Development, Informal Land Development, State-led Land Redevelopment, State-approved Independent Development, and Megaproject-based Land Development. The study also found that the land development processes in the city are characterized by the divergent and contingent local conditions and the spatiality of government policy.…”

Urban fringes are an important part of urban growth. In addition to formal land markets, a variety of informal land development methods make urban fringes the most dynamic and complicated areas. The analysis of land transfer and development systems in these areas opens a significant window to understanding the modern processes of urbanization and human and property rights in urban areas in China. This study uses Shanghai as a case study target and identifies specific modes of local land development and investigates how collective participants, government agencies, regulatory policies, and various actors are involved in land development and decision making. The in-depth analysis and case studies indicate that the variety of informal land markets in Shanghai reflects the inherent demands of the market for allocation of land resources within the constraints of the given system and against the given development background. However, conflicts between the mode of the market and the existing institutional constraints reflect the uncoordinated development of the land and the economic and social development around the urban fringe. The empirical results of this paper suggest that government administration should improve the land market system, strengthen the planning of control and guidance, rationalize the distribution of interests in land development, and strengthen the supervision of management of land development enterprises. Instead of fragmented aspects, this paper proposes a systematic analytical approach to understanding the informal land development in a city from an urban planning and land resource management perspective.
