The mechanism of urban-rural integrated development based on the “population-land-capital” factor flow: A case study of Jiangxi Province by YANG Jie, GE Dazhuan, SUN Pan, YUAN Ziyi

“…[Objective] Breaking down the barriers to the free and bidirectional flow of urban-rural development factors is an important prerequisite for promoting integrated urban-rural development, and enhancing the flow of urban-rural factors contributes to achieving coordinated and balanced development between urban and rural areas. [Methods] This paper explores the intrinsic mechanism of urban-rural integrated development from the perspective of factor flow, discusses the connotation of urban-rural integrated development from the multi-dimensional coupling relationship of “economy-society-ecology”, and analyzes the driving mechanism of urban-rural integrated development in Jiangxi Province based on the spatio-temporal geographical weighted regression of the flow of “population-land-capital” factors between urban and rural areas. …”
