Sustainable land use policy: rhetoric and reality. Gelan, A, Shannon, P, & Aitkenhead, M Local Environment, 13(4):291–308, 2008. abstract bibtex Examines trends in population redistribution and residential land use change in northeast Scotland between 1988 and 2003. Reviews the relevant literature and discusses the issue of urban sprawl. Looks at the policy context, including development plan policies, the green belt policy and the green space network policy. Describes the use of a geographical information system (GIS) tool to bring together data from interrelated sources and to analyse population settlement and land use changes at a detailed spatial scale. Finds that substantial land conversion had taken place in the region, particularly conversion of agricultural land to built-up and residential areas. Identifies discrepancies between policy rhetoric and policy implementation. Reports that substantial farm land conversion had taken place in suburban areas and rural Aberdeenshire with little change in the size of derelict land in Aberdeen City, probably due to the cost of redeveloping derelict land.
