Book Description
This important and insightful book provides, for the first time, a broad presentation of ongoing research into public participation in landscape conservation, management and planning, following the 2000 European Landscape Convention which came into force in 2004. The book examines both the theory of participation and what lessons can be learnt from specific European examples. It explores in what manner and to what extent the provisions for participation in the European Landscape Convention have been followed up and implemented. It also presents and compares different experiences of participation in selected countries from northern, southern, eastern and western Europe, and provides a critical examination of public participation in practice. However, while the book’s focus is necessarily on Europe, many of the conclusions drawn are of global relevance. The book provides a valuable reference for researchers and advanced students in landscape policies and management, as well as for professionals and others interested in land-use planning and environmental management.

Multi-party Elections in Africa
Author: Michael Cowen
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Literary Collections
Languages : en
Pages : 404
Book Description
This volume contains electoral studies of multiparty politics in 14 African countries during the 1990s. Most are about national elections in Anglophone Africa. There are also less well-known examples from Sudan, Ethiopia and Guinea Bissau. The collection also features studies of the local elections in Namibia and of a significant by-election in Malawi. The multiparty period had been put, wherever possible, within the historical context of earlier elections in Africa. Questions addressed include: how did incumbent governing regimes learn to live with multiparty politics? Why have some elections been so closely fought and others have suffered from apathy? Why has there been relatively open political expression and activity when the elections have increased the political and economic manipulation by incumbent governments? Why have the elections of the 1990s been so marked by local and ethnic variations? To what extent did this wave of democracy result from pressure from donor countries?

British and French Copyright
Author: Stina Teilmann-Lock
Publisher: Djoef Publishing
ISBN: 9788757422139
Category : Copyright
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
This book offers an aesthetic account of intellectual property rights as they concern works of art and literature. The thesis begins with a comparison of British copyright and French droit d'auteur, and goes through a historical survey of licenses and printing privileges in both countries, including the Statute of Anne of 1710 as well as the Fine Arts Act of 1862 in Britain, and La loi du 19 juillet 1793 in France. The core of the thesis is a reading of selected legal cases in Britain and France from the early 19th century to the present. Cases concerning works of art and literature are closely analyzed and compared in terms of their concern and consequences for the scope of protection, the justification for copyright, the concept of the work and of the author/creator, the notion of originality, and the concepts of copying and infringement. Cases are presented chronologically in order to expose trends and developments. It presents, in outline, a conceptual history of reproduction (as substitution, as multiplication, as appropriation), in order to understand the legal conflicts and inconsistencies in copyright law. These particularly concern the disparity between the ownership of an immaterial work and that of its material manifestation, as well as the lack of an appropriate legal distinction between images and texts. Dissertation.

Permis de construire et autres autorisations d'urbanisme
Author: Philippe Boulisset
Publisher: Delmas
ISBN: 9782247076314
Category :
Languages : fr
Pages : 775
Book Description
Longtemps attendue, la réforme du permis de construire et des autres autorisations d'urbanisme opérée par l'ordonnance du 8 décembre 2005 et le décret du 5 janvier 2007 est entrée en vigueur depuis le 1er octobre 2007. Simplifier les procédures, sécuriser et favoriser la qualité du droit de l'urbanisme, tels sont les objectifs poursuivis. La réforme se traduit notamment par une réduction significative du nombre des autorisations, substituant aux onze régimes d'autorisation et aux quatre déclarations, trois permis (permis de construire, permis d'aménager, permis de démolir) et une déclaration. Cet ouvrage permet de comprendre le nouveau droit des autorisations d'urbanisme et de mesurer l'ampleur d'une réforme qui s'inscrit davantage dans une logique de continuité et de perfectionnement que de bouleversement. Il tient aussi compte des modifications apportées par d'autres textes et, en particulier, la loi ENL du 13 juillet 2006 (unification du régime de retrait des autorisations, divisibilité des autorisations, restriction du droit de recours des associations, sort réservé aux constructions irrégulières). Un ouvrage très complet, parfaitement à jour des derniers textes (dont l'important arrêté du 6 juin 2007), qui s'appuie sur une multitude de références jurisprudentielles et doctrinales, pour être certain de maîtriser rapidement ce droit nouveau des autorisations d'urbanisme.

Category :
Languages : fr
Pages : 191
Book Description
Permis de construire et autres autorisations d'urbanisme - mode d'emploi renferme tous les éléments pratiques permettant d'instruire les demandes de permis. L'auteur, fort de sa double compétence de juriste et de praticien de l'urbanisme, identifie clairement l'ensemble des questions que se posent les différents acteurs de l'instruction et du contrôle des autorisations d'urbanisme afin d'y apporter les réponses adéquates : A quelles vérifications faut-il procéder préalablement à L'instruction de la demande ? Comment déterminer les règles applicables et vérifier la cohérence d'un dossier de demande de permis ? Comment gérer des demandes de permis modificatifs ? Comment procéder au contrôle de conformité des constructions aux autorisations délivrées ? Ce guide pratique est rythmé par de nombreux pictogrammes (" conseil d'expert ", " suivez le lien ", " à retenir "), fiches de procédure, tableaux synoptiques... Il permet aux différents acteurs de concentrer leurs efforts sur le projet lui-même ou sur la construction réalisée et non sur les contraintes juridiques les encadrant.
