Context The global trend of landscape simplification for industrial agriculture is known to cause losses in biodiversity and ecosystem service diversity. Despite these problems being widely known, status quo trajectories driven by global economic growth and changing diets continue to lead to further landscape simplification. Objectives In this perspective article, we argue that landscape simplification has negative consequences for a range of relational values, affecting the social-ecological relationships between people and nature, as well as the social relationships among people. A focus on relational values has been proposed to overcome the divide between intrinsic and instrumental values that people gain from nature. Results We use a landscape sustainability science framing to examine the interconnections between ecological and social changes taking place in rural landscapes. We propose that increasingly rapid and extreme landscape simplification erodes human-nature connectedness, social relations, and the sense of agency of inhabitants—potentially to the point of severe erosion of relational values in extreme cases. We illustrate these hypothesized changes through four case studies from across the globe. Leaving the links between ecological, social-ecological and social dimensions of landscape change unattended could exacerbate disconnection from nature. Conclusion A relational values perspective can shed new light on managing and restoring landscapes. Landscape sustainability science is ideally placed as an integrative space that can connect relevant insights from landscape ecology and work on relational values. We see local agency as a likely key ingredient to landscape sustainability that should be actively fostered in conservation and restoration projects.

景观简化导致的相关价值的侵蚀

背景 众所周知,工业化农业景观简化的全球趋势会导致生物多样性和生态系统服务多样性的损失。尽管这些问题广为人知,但由全球经济增长和饮食变化驱动的现状轨迹继续导致景观进一步简化。目标 在这篇透视文章中,我们认为景观简化对一系列关系价值产生负面影响,影响人与自然之间的社会生态关系,以及人与人之间的社会关系。已经提出关注关系价值,以克服人们从自然中获得的内在价值和工具价值之间的鸿沟。结果我们使用景观可持续性科学框架来检查农村景观中发生的生态和社会变化之间的相互联系。我们认为,日益快速和极端的景观简化会侵蚀人与自然的联系、社会关系和居民的能动性——在极端情况下,可能会严重侵蚀关系价值。我们通过来自全球的四个案例研究来说明这些假设的变化。忽视景观变化的生态、社会生态和社会维度之间的联系可能会加剧与自然的脱节。结论 关系价值观可以为管理和恢复景观提供新的思路。景观可持续性科学是理想的综合空间,可以连接景观生态学的相关见解并研究相关价值。我们认为当地机构可能是景观可持续性的关键因素,应在保护和恢复项目中积极促进。
