"Making Landscapes"or"Creating Lives":A Case Study in Rural Spatial Production
The effectiveness of spatial renewal depends on the compatibility between the spatial produc-tion method and the social foundation of the village.In Dongjiao Village,Fujian Province,two spatial pro-duction paths were identified:"making landscape"and"creating life".One approach emphasizes the ex-change value of rural spatial resources,advocating for their transformation into consumer goods for the tourism market to maximize economic benefits.The other approach prioritizes the use value of the production space,focusing on the needs of local villagers'production and life,as well as the long-term interests of the village's development.Further analysis of"process","relationship",and"context"shows that the eco-nomic benefits and sustainability of the former,which is led by the government and enterprises,may not a-chieve the expected results.The latter,in which the government,social organizations,local residents,and other actors participate,is more in line with the foundation of rural society and creates a new social space of diversity.If the act of"making landscape"is considered to be a form of"exogenous"spatial production,then the act of"creating life"can be categorized as"endogenous"spatial production.If the act of"making landscape"is considered as an"exogenous"spatial production,then"creating life"can be seen as an"en-dogenous"spatial production.This can internally activate the vitality of the countryside,maximize the use of rural space,and better meet the consumption demands of rural tourism.As a result,a new social community of life,production,and consumption can be formed.
