Review of research on recreational utilization of abandoned mining areas and construction of research framework system

Strengthening the research on recreational utilization of abandoned mining areas is of great significance for promoting regional sustainable development and realizing high-quality tourism development.In order to realize the standardization and systematization of the research on the recreational utilization of abandoned mining areas, the research contents, research methods and other related achievements of recreational utilization of abandoned mining areas at home and abroad are systematically reviewed and inductively analyzed.At present, the researches lack the perspective of the “man-land relationship” and ignore the dynamics of recreational utilization.So, the connotation of the “man-land relationship”of recreational utilization in abandoned mining areas is discussed, and at the same time the dynamic evolution law of recreational utilization is revealed in abandoned mining areas, and the research framework and methodological system are developed under the theory of the man-land relationship.According to the research, the essence of recreational utilization of abandoned mining areas is to coordinate the relationship between “people” and “land” in the natural environment through the rebuilding of recreational function, so as to optimize the relationship between people and land.Recreational utilization of abandoned mining areas is a dynamic evolution process, which can be divided into three development stages: contradiction stage, reconciliation stage, and coordination stage.Driven by the demand of “people”, abandoned mining areas have gradually evolved into a new leisure space with a harmonious relationship between people and land through resource utilization, capitalization, industrialization, and regionalization.Future research on the recreational utilization of abandoned mining areas should follow the research framework of the “man”-“land”-“man-land relationship”.The future research should study the motive goal, value orientation and interest demands of “man”, analyze the composition of leisure and recreation resources of “land” and the conditions for transforming abandoned mining areas into leisure and recreation spaces, and discuss the mode, mechanism, effect of recreational utilization and the policy guarantee system in abandoned mining areas under the harmonious relationship between man and land.
