Dit boek is het resultaat van het Vlaamse onderzoek uitgevoerd in het project COREPOINT (Coastal Research and Policy Integration) in het kader van INTERREG IIIB North-West Europe. Het bevat een grondige wetenschappelijke analyse van twee beleidsprocessen: de afbakening van de mariene beschermde gebieden in België en de opmaak van het Provinciaal Ruimtelijk Uitvoeringsplan Strand en Dijk. Het boek analyseert telkens het wettelijke kader en de concrete toepassing ervan.De centrale onderzoeksvraag is de wijze waarop de beleidsprocessen verlopen en welke rol participatie hierbij speelt. Om deze vraag te beantwoorden, werkten de onderzoekers met literatuurstudie, documentenanalyse en een reeks diepte-interviews met vertegenwoordigers uit overheid (politiek en ambtelijk), middenveld en markt. In de beschrijving van de beleidsprocessen gaat zowel aandacht naar de rol van actoren en coalities (netwerken), de verdeling van macht, de vigerende spelregels als de gehanteerde beleidsdiscoursen

Rough Waters explores one of the most crucial problems of the contemporary era--struggles over access to, and use of, the environment. It combines insights from anthropology, history, and environmental studies, mounting an interdisciplinary challenge to contemporary accounts of "globalization." The book focuses on The Mafia Island Marine Park, a national park in Tanzania that became the center of political conflict during its creation in the mid-1990s. The park, reflecting a new generation of internationally sponsored projects, was designed to encourage environmental conservation as well as development. Rather than excluding residents, as had been common in East Africa's mainland wildlife parks, Mafia Island was intended to represent a new type of national park that would encourage the participation of area residents and incorporate their ideas. While the park had been described in the project's general management plan as "for the people and by the people," residents remained excluded from the most basic decisions made about the park. The book details the day-to-day tensions and alliances that arose among Mafia residents, Tanzanian government officials, and representatives of international organizations, as each group attempted to control and define the park. Walley's analysis argues that a technocentric approach to conservation and development can work to the detriment of both poorer people and the environment. It further suggests that the concept of the global may be inadequate for understanding this and other social dramas in the contemporary world.

'Conserving the Oceans' documents the efforts of activists and states to increase the pace and scale of global ocean protections, leading to a new global norm in ocean conservation of large marine protected areas (MPAs) exceeding 200,000 km2. Through an analysis of domestic political economies, the book explains how states have protected millions of square kilometers of ocean space while remaining highly responsive to the interests of businesses. It argues that states design environmental policies above all around two key features of a given space: (1) the composition of extractive versus non-extractive industry interests; and (2) the salience of various industry interests, defined as the degree to which businesses would suffer tangible and significant costs in response to new environmental regulations.

This book is a critical analysis of the concept of marine protected areas (MPAs) particularly as a tool for marine resource management. It explains the reasons for the extraordinary rise of MPAs to the top of the political agenda for marine policy, and evaluates the scientific credentials for the unprecedented popularity of this management option. The book reveals the role played by two policy networks – epistemic community and advocacy coalition – in promoting the notion of MPA, showing how advocacy for marine reserves by some scientists based on limited evidence of fisheries benefits has led to a blurring of the boundary between science and politics. Second, the study investigates whether the scientific consensus on MPAs has resulted in a publication bias, whereby pro-MPA articles are given preferential treatment by peer-reviewed academic journals, though it found only limited evidence of such a bias. Third, the project conducts a systematic review of the literature to determine the ecological effects of MPAs, and reaches the conclusion that there is little proof of a positive impact on finfish populations in temperate waters. Fourth, the study uses discourse analysis to trace the effects of a public campaigning policy network on marine conservation zones (MCZs) in England, which demonstrated that there was considerable confusion over the objectives that MCZs were being designated to achieve. The book’s conclusion is that the MPA issue shows the power of ideas in marine governance, but offers a caution that scientists who cross the line between science and politics risk exaggerating the benefits of MPAs by glossing over uncertainties in the data, which may antagonise the fishing industry, delay resolution of the MPA issue, and weaken public faith in marine science if and when the benefits of MCZs are subsequently seen to be limited.

Les écosystèmes côtiers, qui concentrent actuellement 70 % de la population mondiale, sont particulièrement impactés par le changement climatique et les activités anthropiques. D’où les espoirs placés dans la création d’aires marines protégées (AMP), qui favorisent la résilience des systèmes vivants et la conservation des espèces. Au cours des dernières années, un véritable consensus international s’est progressivement imposé quant à l’intérêt de les multiplier. Cependant, de nombreuses incertitudes demeurent sur leur efficacité réelle et sur les modalités de leur mise en œuvre. Les enjeux sociétaux qui sont associés à la multiplication des AMP interrogent les scientifiques, notamment en termes d’acceptation sociale, de régulation juridique et de pérennité des dispositifs mis en place. Ainsi, entre soutien au développement des AMP et analyse des controverses dont elles font parfois l’objet, cet ouvrage apporte un éclairage interdisciplinaire sur le développement de ces nouveaux espaces de conservation. Les études présentées ici sont centrées sur l’Afrique du Nord-Ouest (Algérie, Maroc et Sénégal). À travers le regard de juristes, d’écologues, de géographes, d’économistes, elles illustrent le potentiel associé à ce mode de conservation des zones marines et côtières. Elles questionnent par ailleurs l’efficience des AMP, tout en soulignant leur intérêt, bien au-delà des territoires où elles se situent.

This book focuses on how marine systems respond to natural and anthropogenic perturbations (ENSO, overfishing, pollution, tourism, invasive species, climate-change). Authors explain in their chapters how this information can guide management and conservation actions to help orient and better manage, restore and sustain the ecosystems services and goods that are derived from the ocean, while considering the complex issues that affect the delicate nature of the Islands. This book will contribute to a new understanding of the Galapagos Islands and marine ecosystems. .

Marine Protected Areas in International law – an Arctic perspective , introduces and analyzes the legal rights and obligations of states under international law, using Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) as a tool to protect marine biodiversity. The fragile Arctic marine environment is under growing pressure from climate change and the prospect of increasing human activity affecting previously untouched areas. The conservation of Arctic marine biodiversity is a pressing and global concern, not least because the melting of sea ice will have widespread effects. By analyzing regional cooperation through the OSPAR Convention and under the Arctic Council, Jakobsen examines the implementation of the global legal framework for biodiversity protection and conservation in the Arctic. The book has a particular focus on the possibilities of the states to regulate shipping within the MPAs, as the increasing shipping activities represent a major threat to the sensitive marine Arctic.
