The featured contributions cover diverse topics such as farmland protection, farmland use efficiency, the spatial justice of urban green spaces, landscape ecological security, agro-farmland sustainability, sustainability dynamics of rural land systems, challenges amid coupled urban growth and shrinkage, changing paradigms of sustainable urban fringe systems, spatial governance of rural-urban systems, and the under-researched governance of marine space. These seemingly distinct topics fall into four complementary land-based governance levers (i.e., rebuilding capital stocks, redirecting interaction flows, reforming governance architectures, and re-\/co-piloting sustainability transitions) for advancing weak\/strong sustainability from the local to the global scale. Each study offers either empirical evidence or theoretical insight-often both-that collectively reveals how land is not just a passive substrate but a powerful governance toolbox that merits timely recognition for achieving sustainability. This reprint serves as both a reference and a call to action for researchers, practitioners, and policymakers to harness the full potential of land-related approaches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 232\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.75 x 9.61 x 6.69 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e July 04, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53248957350195,"sku":"9783725845576","price":106.83,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/39iwEkwc1H9783725845576.webp?v=1776317580","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/en-ca\/products\/advancing-sustainability-through-land-related-approaches-theoretical-foundations-and-empirical-investigations-hardcover","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
