Abstract

China’s rapid urbanization and industrialization have continually placed massive pressure on the country’s natural resources. The fragmented departmental administration of natural resources also intensifies the problem of sustainable use. Accordingly, China’s central government has launched natural resource administration reform from decentralization to unification. This study systematically analyzes the reform requirements from legal, organizational, and technical aspects. The right structure of China’s natural resource assets for fulfilling such requirements is examined in this work through a review of relevant legal text, and such a right structure is converted into a draft national technical standard of China’s natural resource administration on the basis of the land administration domain model (LADM). Results show that China’s natural resource administration covers lands, buildings, structures, forests, grasslands, waters, beaches, sea areas, minerals, and other fields. The types of private rights over natural resources include ownerships, land-contracted management rights (cultivated land, forest land, grassland, and water area), rights to use construction land (state-owned and collective-owned), rights to use agricultural land, rights to use homestead land, breeding rights on water areas and beaches, rights to use sea areas, rights to use uninhabited islands, and mining rights. The types of public rights over natural resources include comprehensive land use, urban and rural, sea use, and territory space planning. Furthermore, various types of these property rights can be converted into corresponding classes in LADM on the basis of the analysis of the property subject, object, and rights.

Highlights

  • Since China’s reform and opening up, the country has entered a long period of rapid urbanization and industrialization

  • The land administration domain model (LADM) is a standardized technical support system proposed by the international land management science community to meet the requirements of law and organizational administration and achieve sustainable utilization of land and other related natural resources [9,10,11]

  • Legal documents concerning the acquisition of the ownership and use right of natural resources shall be governed by law

Summary

Introduction

Since China’s reform and opening up, the country has entered a long period of rapid urbanization and industrialization. The land administration domain model (LADM) is a standardized technical support system proposed by the international land management science community to meet the requirements of law and organizational administration and achieve sustainable utilization of land and other related natural resources [9,10,11]. To meet the reform requirements of China’s natural resource (real estate) administration system, Chinese scholars have conducted pilot studies in China by using the LADM standard. Guo et al designed an LADM-based model suitable for China’s 3D cadastral administration to meet the needs of 3D land utilization in densely populated areas [30] These studies have provided important academic contributions to improving the technical management of China’s natural resources.
