System dynamics mechanism of living-production-ecological system integration in tourism-driven traditional villages:Taking Dehang Village in Hunan Province as an example
At present,the regional spatial system of traditional villages is hollowing out,and the integration of living-production-ecological system,as a good state of regional spatial system development,can be used as a guiding goal to solve the problem of hollowing out the countryside.Exploring the driving factors and processes of typical traditional tourism-driven villages to achieve the integration of living-production-ecological system can provide a reference for the governance of traditional village hollowing out.In this study,we defined the concept of tourism-driven traditional villages'living-production-ecological system integration from the perspective of theory of practice.We took Dehang Village in Hunan Province as an example,decomposed the relevant variables that affect the traditional villages'living-production-ecological system integration relying on the theory of rootedness,and then constructed the motivation mechanism of the tourism-driven traditional villages'living-production-ecological system integration by using the method of system dynamics.The conclusions are as follows:1)The ecological subsystem is the fundamental basis for the integration of the living-production-ecological system and consists of two circuits:humanized ecological practices and primitive ecological practices.2)The production subsystem is the material driving force for the integration,including the three circuits of tourism industry development,tourism industry innovation,and tourism production resistance.3)The subsystem of living is the key guarantee for the integration and consists of three circuits,namely,the practice of material life,the practice of spiritual life,and the construction of political life.4)Ecological protection restricts the disorderly expansion of production and living,ecological product creation promotes tourism industry development and improves residents'lives,and residents'living practices in turn counter-promote tourism production innovation and ecological protection,with the three subsystems interacting with each other,and superimposing their functions.Summarizing the system dynamics of Dehang Village's spatial system to achieve the integration of living-production-ecological system under the cycle of multiple causal bonds and causal loops can provide a reference for traditional villages of the same type.
