Über dieses Buch
As a key element of individual and social well-being and quality of life, landscape plays an important part in human fulfilment and in reinforcement of European identity.Adopted under the auspices of the Council of Europe, the European Landscape Convention aims to promote the protection, management and planning of landscapes, and to organise international co-operation in this field. It applies to the entire territory of the contracting parties and covers natural, rural, urban and peri-urban areas. It concerns landscapes considered outstanding, as well as everyday or degraded areas. Certain "dimensions" of the landscape are presented in this publication, which addresses key issues for its future, including democracy, education, economy, leisure and advertising. Landscape management processes – and even the term "landscape" itself – are also analysed. This book forms part of a process of reflection on the major themes concerning the living environment.
