Countryside Planning
By: Bishop, Kevin (ed.); Phillips, Adrian (ed.)
Published by: Earthscan

Not since the 19th century has the future of the countryside been such a focus of political and public attention nor of profound uncertainty and anguished debate. A watershed has now been reached and in this time of unprecedented change new tools are needed for planning and managing the countryside. Increasingly the 'drivers' of countryside management and conservation are European and international. They aim to provide comprehensive new frameworks for the whole countryside and encourage community-driven planning and protection. There have been numerous responses at the country and local levels within the UK. In this book a broad range of scholars and practitioners review the international drivers affecting countryside policy and practice and - through a variety of case studies - they assess the value of country and local responses.
