Book Governing Marine Protected Areas

Download or read book Governing Marine Protected Areas written by Peter Jones and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-02-24 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this innovative volume, the author addresses some important challenges related to the effective and equitable governance of marine protected areas (MPAs). These challenges are explored through a study of 20 MPA case studies from around the world. A novel governance analysis framework is employed to address some key questions: How can top-down and bottom-up approaches to MPA governance be combined? What does this mean, in reality, in different contexts? How can we develop and implement governance approaches that are both effective in achieving conservation objectives and equitable in fairly sharing associated costs and benefits? The author explores the many issues that these questions raise, as well as exploring options for addressing them. A key theme is that MPA governance needs to combine people, state and market approaches, rather than being based on one approach and its related ideals. Building on a critique of the governance analysis framework developed for common-pool resources, the author puts forward a more holistic and less prescriptive framework for deconstructing and analyzing the governance of MPAs. This inter-disciplinary analysis is aimed at supporting the development of MPA governance approaches that build social-ecological resilience through both institutional and biological diversity. It will also make a significant contribution to wider debates on natural resource governance, as it poses some critical questions for contemporary approaches to related research and offers an alternative theoretical and empirical approach.

Book Securitizing Marine Protected Areas

Download or read book Securitizing Marine Protected Areas written by Elizabeth M. De Santo and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-07-10 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a novel examination of Marine Protected Areas within a security context, bridging science, policy, and geopolitics, and addressing the often-under-emphasized aspect of environmental justice. The book argues that Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) are not only a critical tool for protecting marine biodiversity in a changing climate, but they also play an important role at the intersection of geopolitics and environmental justice, and they provide a case study of environmental governance at the science-policy interface. The book takes an interdisciplinary and critical approach and builds on the author's two decades of experience working in this field. Geopolitically, it explores the ways in which MPAs provide footprints for influence and access to resources far from home for nations with overseas territories. MPAs also raise important issues connected to equity, environmental justice, and social justice, including access to resources and participation in environmental decision-making processes, key aspects for achieving long-term conservation goals. The book also demonstrates how MPAs are a critical lens for understanding how policy makers cope with scientific uncertainty, and the necessity of well-designed and precautionary science advisory processes. While the ecological contribution of MPAs is paramount, social issues and geopolitical considerations are often less obvious in the discourse underpinning MPAs, and the resulting tensions can undermine long-term conservation objectives. By applying the three lenses of geopolitics, environmental justice and science, this book provides key insights to help the international community moving past the 2030 biodiversity targets and beyond, towards a future of meaningful, equitable, and effective conservation approaches. This book will be of great interest to students and scholars of biodiversity conservation, marine studies, political geography, environmental governance, and science-policy studies. It will also be of interest to marine conservation governance professionals and policymakers.

Book An Approach to the Establishment and Management of Marine Protected Areas Under the Oceans Act

Download or read book An Approach to the Establishment and Management of Marine Protected Areas Under the Oceans Act written by Canada. Department of Fisheries and Oceans and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 47 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The federal Oceans Act authorizes the Government of Canada to establish a national system of marine protected areas (MPAs) and to make appropriate regulations. Such areas could include tidal flats, offshore banks, seamounts, rare-species habitats, deep-sea vents, salt marshes, and spawning or nursery areas. This discussion paper is intended to seek input and comment on the Dept. of Fisheries & Oceans proposed approach to establishing MPAs under the Act. It explains why MPAs are important for Canada, the overall goals and strategies for MPAs, overall purposes for MPAs such as conservation of unique habitats or threatened species, how MPAs will be identified and established, and how MPAs will be managed through partnering with other bodies such as fishing interests, provincial and municipal governments, and Aboriginal organizations.
