Theoretical Foundations on Territorial Space Planning
The purpose of this study is to explore the basic theoretical problems of systematic science,dynamic equilibrium theory and evolving organization mechanism concerning territorial space from the perspective of theoretical composition of planning,to provide the guidance for planning practice.The research method is literature review.The research results show that:1)the theoretical composition of territorial space planning goes far beyond the scope of traditional architecture deeply into knowledges of geography,ecology,oceanography,informatics,economics,management,civil law,landscape and other disciplines.2)The object of territorial space planning is"geographic complex".The planning theory mainly comes from the systematic scientific principles of"geographic complexes"at different scales,including the scientific theory of earth's surface system,the theory of zoning system in human-land relations,the scientific theory of land administration,the theory of landscape ecology,the scientific theory of human settlements environment,etc.3)Territorial space planning in essence ensures the smooth flow,that is,dynamic balance,of the material cycle and energy conversion of the system through regulating all aspects of the territorial space system,including the dynamic balance of natural systems,the dynamic balance of economic systems,the dynamic balance of social systems and the comprehensive dynamic balance of territorial space system.4)The territorial space system is evolved and developed from the combined functioning of its self-mechanism and other related mechanisms.Its self-mechanism includes scale evolution mechanism,structural evolution mechanism and pattern evolution mechanism.Other mechanisms mainly include territorial space planning,use control,public supervision and information monitor,etc.In conclusion,as an achievement of ecological civilization system reform and a critical tool for national space governance in the new era,the national space planning involves various knowledge systems of multiple disciplines and calls for theoretical innovation and related institutional restructuring.
