Abstract: The purpose of this paper was to analyze social impact of land consolidation project with causal loop diagram in the system dynamics, and assess its level by means of AHP and fuzzy synthetic evaluation. Methods of system dynamics, AHP and fuzzy synthetic evaluation were employed in this paper. By taking the land consolidation project as an example, comprehensive evaluation of the results about the social impact of the project’s success degree was ‘basic success’, ‘social efficiency’ of the project had the best success degree, and then was ‘social equity’, and the last one was ‘the sustainable development of society’. The influential factors and pathways of the social impact in the land consolidation were analyzed by using the theory of system dynamics; the related social impact through the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method was assessed, and the research results could put forward recommendations for practical work about social impact assessment of land reclamation projects in the future.
