Résumé :
|
The increase in landscape degradation in the last decades has resulted in a growing public concern for policies to conserve the countryside. this book presents theories of valuation and economic welfare which are applied to policies to conserve the landscape. the book discusses the criteria for landscape conservation decision making and places particular emphasis on the multi-dimensional nature of landscape change and the selection of an optimal policy mix for conservation. the author examines the economic theory and methods used to analyse changes in the landscape, and then applies theory and methods to the assessment of conservation schemes.
