Download or read book Tourism Planning and Development in the Middle East written by Stella Kladou and published by CABI. This book was released on 2022-12-16 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Given the historical and cultural richness of countries in the Middle East region, as well as the economic development many have exhibited in recent years, tourism planning and development gains much significance for both scholars and practitioners. Turbulence, conflicts and crises exhibited in the area add further dimensions that need to be incorporated in tourism strategies and planning, and be taken into consideration by experts at an institutional, corporate and educational level. Furthermore, in order to effectively deal with aspects of sustainability, visions and strategies in the region need to build upon good practices. As a result, a greater understanding is required of the factors influencing decision-making on tourism matters as well as on the impacts and implications of sustainable tourism development. This book is an essential resource for tourism practitioners, decision-makers in private and public organisations, government bodies and consultants, not only from the Middle East, but for all those who want an encompassing view of global tourism.

Book excerpt: Research Paper (postgraduate) from the year 1999 in the subject Politics - Topic: Development Politics, Free University of Berlin (Otto-Suhr-Institut), course: Globalisierung und Internationale Politische Ökonomie, language: English, abstract: The majority of the world’s population does not have access to any of the basic civilizatory services including area-masking health, education, water supply, energy supply, and above all, adequate food supply services that are available to the vast majority of residents of developed nations. The installation of an Area-Masking, Omni-Sectoral (AMOS) Development-Engineering complex on the basis of a Private / Public Partnership (PPP) is to be seen as the one way out of a global crisis that is increasingly spinning out of control and causes billions of people to suffer from severe malnutrition and supply deficiency. This is particularly regrettable because technological solutions to most - if not all - segments of the Global Planetary Crisis (GPC) are meanwhile existing. In order to work towards the solution of the Global Planetary Crisis that increasingly unfolds at all levels of social, political and economic life, an action plan, that needs to be endorsed by an omni-national agency and that includes the appointment of a special task committee with the objectives of Future-Safeguarding and Infrastructure-Completion, may be one of the few viable options. Only such an omni-lateral round-table agency could inaugurate and authorize a network of economic, political and charitable organization com-plexes that may interact in cooperative and synergetic ways to provide the required socio-economic infra-structures, political framework and supply of goods, services and facilities in order to systematically over-come the crisis in all its aspects. The LIFENET system, as presented in this compact, key-issue focused study, is meant to be but one potential approach that could lead to true global democratization, power-sharing and equalization of living standards worldwide - if implemented wholeheartedly. The overarching goal is the complete and uncom-promising implementation of the Declaration of Human Rights, whereby Art. 23, section (2) is seen as most essential in order to physically solve the Global Planetary Crisis. The system builds on the particular complementary strengths of different types of profit and non-profit organizations and their interactive and synergetic potentials to forge a multi-sectoral task force that accumulates the required magnitude and goodwill to physically start solving planetary problems in cooperation with external units and governments.

This book was released on 2014-03-21 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume 18 in the CGL-Studies series, entitled "Environmental Policy and Landscape Architecture", is the result of an international symposium held in Jerusalem in March 2011 which was organised by the Van Leer Jerusalem Institute in collaboration with the Centre of Garden Art and Landscape Architecture. The symposium focused on how the many different facets of landscape architecture could help towards solving environmental problems. Sustainable Development and Landscaping, Environmental Policy and the Contribution of Landscape Architecture at a Local Level, Designing Public Open Spaces and Social Sustainability, Spatial Planning and Landscape Architecture in Israel/Palestine, and Water and Soil: Crisis and Conservation are the key chapters in this volume. The authors address a wide range of issues including the significance of religions in ideas about environmentalism in historical and current debates, how Palestinian society can meet challenges posed by the dynamic development of urban structures through capacity building in landscape architecture, and economically meaningful strategies for soil conservation in arable fields as part of agricultural sustainability in semi-arid areas. A key objective of the symposium was also to determine opportunities for cooperation in the field of environment and landscaping for Israelis, Palestinians, Muslims, Jews and Christians in a region marked by huge tension and conflicts. The authors are scholars of various disciplines such as landscape architecture, urban planning, technology assessment, philosophy of science, environmental communication and ecology, and come from Israel, Palestine, USA, Norway and Germany.
Download or read book Critical Landscape Planning During the Belt and Road Initiative written by Ashley Scott Kelly and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book traces the development of landscapes along the 414-kilometer China-Laos Railway, one of the first infrastructure projects implemented under China's Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) and which is due for completion at the end of 2021. Written from the perspective of landscape architecture and intended for planners and related professionals engaged in the development and conservation of these landscapes, this book provides history, planning pedagogy and interdisciplinary framing for working alongside the often-opaque planning, design and implementation processes of large-scale infrastructure. It complicates simplistic notions of development and urbanization frequently reproduced in the Laos-China frontier region. Many of the projects and sites investigated in this book are recent "firsts" in Laos: Laos's first wildlife sanctuary for trafficked endangered species, its first botanical garden and its first planting plan for a community forest. Most often the agents and accomplices of neoliberal development, the planning and design professions, including landscape architecture, have little dialogue with either the mainstream natural sciences or critical social sciences that form the discourse of projects in Laos and comparable contexts. Covering diverse conceptions and issues of development, including cultural and scientific knowledge exchanges between Laos and China, nature tourism, connectivity and new town planning, this book also features nine planning proposals for Laos generated through this research initiative since the railway's groundbreaking in 2016. Each proposal promotes a wider "landscape approach" to development and deploys landscape architecture's spatial and ecological acumen to synthesize critical development studies with the planner's capacity, if not naive predilection, to intervene on the ground. Ultimately, this book advocates the cautious engagement of the professionally oriented built-environment disciplines, such as regional planning, civil engineering and landscape architecture, with the landscapes of development institutions and environmental NGOs.

Book excerpt: Based on both research and practical experience,Ecological Landscape Design and Planning offers a holistic methodological approach to landscape design and planning.
