In recent years, coastal zone management has gained increasing attention from environmentalists, land use planners, and decision makers across a broad spectrum of fields. Development pressures along coasts such as high-end tourism projects, luxury housing, ports, energy generation, military outposts, heavy industry and large-scale enterprise compete with landscape preservation and threaten local history and culture. Leading experts present fifteen case studies among advanced-economy countries, selected to represent three groups of legal contexts: signatories to the 2008 Mediterranean ICZM Protocol, parties to the 2002 EU Recommendation on Integrated Coastal Zone Management, and the USA and Australia. This book is the first to address the legal-regulatory aspects of coastal land management from a systematic cross-national comparative perspective. By including both successful and less-effective strategies, it aims to inform professionals, graduate students, policy makers, and NGOs of the legal and socio-political challenges as well as the better practices from which others could learn"-- Provided by publisher Analysis Climate change Coastal development Coastal land management Coastal zones Environmental law Global warming ICZM Integrated Coastal Zone Management Landscape governance Landscape planning Land use planning Marine law Natural disasters Natural resources Planning law Sea-level rise Shorelines Urban planning Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and index Notes Rachelle Alterman is Professor (emerita) of urban planning and law at the Technion--Israel Institute of Technology and Senior Researcher at the Neaman Institute for National Policy Research.
