Abstract: This article analyzes People's Republic of China’s policies and actions regarding livestock grazing in Inner Mongolia. A policy analysis of spatial changes in livestock grazing was conducted, and the current situation and historical overview of the past were reviewed chronologically. In reviewing this social spatial change in Inner Mongolia, we consider it within the context of the overall policies implemented since the Chinese government's "Land and Pasture Ownership" policy, first implemented in 1979, to the present day. Pasture policies and practices have shaped the livelihoods, urbanization, demographic structure, and social change of modern Inner Mongolian herders. This article also compares and analyzes the main Western and Eastern theories and concepts regarding social spatial change, and discusses them within the context of a literature review. As for the analytical method, the secondary and policy analysis methods were used.
