The concept of ‘landscape’ has multiple meaning and is intrinsically holistic. Since the Renaissance period different ways of dealing with the landscape have developed, each with its own perspective, concepts and methods. Three groups can be recognized: the natural sciences (where landscape ecology has a leading role), the human sciences (with historical geography and historical ecology, but also the humanistic and semiotic approach to landscape), and the applied sciences (with landscape design and architecture and planning). Each contributed to a new and deeper understanding of the landscape. These different trajectories of landscape research are compared. Common concepts, goals and language are not evident and it is not obvious how to make a new... |

This chapter discusses challenges for PhD students involved in integrative landscape research. These challenges include terminology, epistemology, expectations, stakeholder involvement, organizational barriers, communicating and publishing, as well as career development. The chapter presents recommendations for future integrative landscape research involving PhD students and prospects for future education. The recommendations are based on our experiences in research and teaching in general, and on our exchanges with the students in the PhD master class in particular. The recommendations also reflect on the conclusions that can be drawn from the PhD students’ contributions in this book. |

Two forces are apparent in the actual changes of the landscapes, polarization between intensification and extensification and the distinction between urban and rural becoming diffuse and fuzzy. Processes related to urbanization continue to extend and affect even the remotest small village. More and more people living in the countryside use values similar to the ones of the urbanites. Changing landscape structures induce new functionality, as well as conflicts with the current land use. In particular in the highly dynamic and complex suburban fringe, conflicting evaluations are debating every single piece of the strongly fragmented land. Problems involved with the multifunctional use of small spaces are manifold but also offer new opportunities. The... |

This chapter introduces the contents of the book through an analysis of current trends in landscape research and landscape planning and a discussion of the consequences of these trends for PhD students. Landscape research has become more and more applied and involves a broad variety of experts from various disciplines. Societal, political and intellectual changes have led to an increase in integrative landscape projects. Many of these projects involve PhD students in integrative landscape research. To gain an insight into the way PhD students cope with the challenges of integrative research, we used a questionnaire survey to ask 30 PhD students attending a course on integrative landscape research about their experiences of working in integrative research.... |
