Until recently, values and benefits from protected areas have often been underestimated as well as taken for granted. Protected Area Management - Recent Advances demonstrates that there are deep necessities in how the wider scientific, environmental, socioeconomic, and cultural values that these natural ecosystems provide should increasingly be recognized. The book highlights various approaches for managing and conserving protected areas to respond to some pressing global challenges such as climate change, demand for food and energy, overexploitation, and habitat change. It addresses these issues in five main sections that cover biodiversity and genetic resources; protected marine areas; community, ecotourism, and protected areas; and protected area conservation and monitoring.

"This is the Spanish translation of Protected Area Governance and Management.Gobernanza y gestión de áreas protegidas presenta un compendio de texto original, estudios de caso y ejemplos de todo el mundo, a partir de la literatura, el conocimiento y la experiencia de las personas involucradas en áreas protegidas. El libro sintetiza el conocimiento actual y el pensamiento de vanguardia de las diversas ramas de la práctica y el aprendizaje relevantes para la gestión y el gobierno de estas zonas. Se pretende que sea una inversión en las habilidades y competencias de las personas responsables de tal tarea y, en consecuencia, la gobernanza y la gestión efectivas, ahora y en el futuro.El éxito global del concepto de área protegida radica en su visión compartida de proteger el patrimonio natural y cultural a largo plazo, y organizaciones como la Unión Internacional para la Conservación de la Naturaleza son una fuerza unificadora en este sentido. No obstante, las áreas protegidas son un fenómeno sociopolítico y las formas en que las naciones las entienden, las gobiernan y las manejan siempre están abiertas a disputas y debates. El libro pretende ilustrar, educar y, sobre todo, desafiar a los lectores a pensar profundamente sobre las áreas protegidas, su futuro y su pasado, así como su presente.El libro ha sido compilado por 169 autores y trata todos los aspectos de la gobernanza y gestión de áreas protegidas. Proporciona información para apoyar la capacitación en desarrollo de capacidades de los oficiales de campo, gerentes a cargo y gerentes de nivel ejecutivo."

Après être resté longtemps lettre morte, le réseau Natura 2000, vaste ensemble d'aires protégées mis en place par la directive Habitats, est sur le point de voir le jour. En France comme en Belgique, la mise en place du réseau Natura 2000 et sa protection soulèvent de nombreuses difficultés d'ordre juridique. Tout d'abord, la méthodologie comme les procédures de sélection des sites sont loin d'être homogènes, en dépit des dispositions relativement précises de la directive Habitats. Au-delà des problèmes locaux liés à la sélection des sites, se pose encore la question de la cohérence du réseau Natura 2000, et de ses aspects transrégionaux ou tronsfrontaliers. Ensuite, s'agissant de la gestion des sites, la directive Habitats, tout en faisant largement intervenir l'outil contractuel, impose des contraintes de nature écologique qui peuvent difficilement faire l'objet de négociations. Enfin, la protection des sites contre les atteintes extérieures doit se traduire par un régime spécifique de prévention et d'évaluation des incidences particulièrement complexe à mettre en œuvre, qui influencera toutes les polices d'aménagement du territoire, de l'agriculture et de l'environnement. Le Séminaire de droit de l'urbanisme et de l'environnement (SIRES) de l'UCL et le Centre de recherches interdisciplinaires en droit de l'environnement, de l'aménagement et de l'urbanisme (CRIDEAU) de l'Université de Limoges ont voulu tenter d'apporter des réponses à ces questions, en organisant, en collaboration avec la Fédération royale du Notariat belge, le 26 septembre 2002 à Louvain-la-Neuve, un colloque de droit comparé France-Belgique, sous l'égide de l'Observatoire juridique Natura 2000. Ce réseau de juristes des différents États membres de l'Union européenne a pour mission d'étudier les aspects juridiques de la mise en œuvre du régime Natura 2000 en Europe.
