Concept/model
Background/focus
of the (case) study
Explicit reference to
urban-rural relations
and spaces
Space and scale
Reference to land
management
Reference to
(regional/functional)
governance
Key references
Structured
telecoupling
approach
Land use changes
driven by
globalisation
No, but possibility to
combine local
couplings and
telecoupling
Usually global,
distant telecoupling
In Liu et al. (2013),
no explicit
reference to urban
and rural spaces or
to local couplings
Yes, but not in
detail
Partly, a link to
governance is possible,
but is not an element of
analysis
Recognition that local
coupled and telecoupled
systems require different
governance approaches
due to multiple flows,
agents, causes and
effects that go beyond
different scales and
administrative and
political borders in
telecoupled systems Liu
et al. (2013)
Liu et al. (2013,
2014); Friis et al.
(2016)
Actor-centred
telecoupling
approach
Changes in land use
and land ownership,
as well as the actors
and institutions
involved
Usually global,
distant telecoupling
Land resources as
part of the food
system, problem of
land grabbing
Eakin et al. (2017)
Yes, explicit reference to
governance and
institutional change:
national governance
(Eakin et al. 2014),
international governance
(Eakin et al. 2017)
Link to multi-scalar
agency
