“…This roughly corresponds to the classification of indirect drivers given by Hersperger 5 and Bürgi (2009), with "natural and spatial driving forces" corresponding to our group (1), and all other categories (political, economic, cultural and technological) to our group (2). Our third group consists of a direct land use activity (grazing) which is not considered by Hersperger and Bürgi (2009), as well as activities / regulations with direct local land use impacts (the presence of tourism, the delineation of nature protection areas). These drivers are directly connected to benefits 10 (ecosystem services) that society obtains from grasslands (fodder production, aesthetic beauty and biodiversity conservation).…”

“…The concept of driving forces and its use in landscape change research can help to move emphasis from patterns to processes, extrapolate results in space and time, link data of different quality, and consider socio-cultural aspects of landscape change (Bürgi et al 2004). Hersperger and Bürgi (2009) distinguish five different groups of driving forces:…”

“…Physical DFs are determined by biophysical characteristics of the environment such as topography, spatial configuration, climate, soil type, and natural disturbances [33,34]. Socioeconomic DFs can be determined by the human utilization of land resources to meet life needs [33], which could be divided into four categories: political, economic, cultural, and technological DFs [34]. Typically these DF categories are not clearly separable; for example, political and economic DFs are closely interrelated with political steering of economic mechanisms.…”

“…The driving forces that are propelling change are often categorised as political, economic, cultural, technological and environmental forces (Hersperger and Bürgi 2009;Kristensenet al 2009). The scale at which they operate also defines the stakeholders that are relevant.…”

“…Time series for at least two periods were used. The first period for comparison lies between 1972 (establishment of the EEC) and 1992, since EU legislation may be considered one of the key policy drivers of landscape processes in Europe in recent decades (Bürgi et al 2004;Hersperger and Bürgi 2009;Van Vliet et al 2015), a key theme in the analysis of this paper. The latter was chosen because from 1992 onwards the MacSharry reform of the European Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) introduced accompanying measures, as the first step towards de-coupling of farmers' agricultural support from production (Primdahl 2014).…”
