The analysis, dissemination and adaptation of good practices have been a reality for a long time, carried out by various sectors of the public and private sectors. In the case of Integrated Coastal Management (ICM), this scenario is incipient and lacks conceptual and methodological development. Good practices in Integrated Coastal Management are fundamental for the sustainability of these areas. Although Brazil has a legal and executive framework for GCI established over 30 years ago, there is no instrument to identify and share these good practices. In this context, this article presents and analyzes the development of the Integrated Coastal Management Best Practices Assessment Model, which was tested in three assessments of specific management processes. The first two evaluations were carried out with the managers of the ‘Costa Sul’ Program, an integrated management experience on a regional scale in the South of Brazil. The third evaluation of the model was carried out at the Federal Conservation Unit ‘Estação Ecológica do Taim’ and analyzed the management of this protected area from the perspective of Integrated Coastal Management. Priority was given to the elaboration and application of the model, where its results were presented and analyzed as the main locus of the research, leaving the analysis of the results of the management processes (specifically) in the background. The Good Practice Assessment Model is a pioneering initiative in terms of systematic assessment of good practices in ICM in Brazil and can contribute to the definition of integrated strategic bases for decision making and support for adaptive management. Keywords: Conceptual modeling; Integrated coastal management; Good practices; Management Instruments; Good practices; Evaluation processes.

In response to increased pressure on coastal systems, integrated coastal management and planning has emerged as a comprehensive approach to involve multiple users within decision-making. The deliberative spaces in which public participation occurs consist of complex social processes where the "wickedness‟ of integrated coastal management problems can be observed. Using Cultural Theory, conflicting rationalities within an in-class roundtable exercise were identified to expose the "wicked‟ nature of coastal problems. In response to these conflicts, students within the roundtable exercise incorporated multiple perspectives into decision-making to reach "clumsy‟ but integrated solutions. Observations of the roundtable exercise indicate that "wicked‟ problems and "clumsy‟ solutions offer an appropriate framework for navigating the deliberative spaces of integrated coastal planning.

This paper is concerned with Korean farmers who were transformed into laborers during the Korean colonial period and migrated to Japan to enhance their living conditions. The author’s research adopts a regional scale to its investigation in which the emergence of Osaka as a global city attracted Koreans seeking economic betterment. The paper shows that, despite an initial claim to permit the free mobility of Koreans, the Japanese empire came to control this mobility depending on political, social, and economic circumstances of Japan and Korea. For Koreans, notwithstanding poverty being a primary trigger for the abandonment of their homes, the paper argues that their migration was facilitated by chain migration and they saw Japan as a resolution to their economic hardships in the process of capital accumulation by the empire.

Indonesia has a lot of potential for nature tourism in the form of mountains, sea, and beaches. This is also an attraction for tourists to make Indonesia as the preferred natural tourist destination when on vacation. Especially West Java, West Java is one of the provinces that are in great demand by local and outside tourists.Besides being famous for its local culture and its unique culinary variety, West Java is also known for its cool air, especially in some parts that are still preserved in nature, the natural potential that is still good and is maintained as an attraction for West Java to attract tourists. One of the famous areas in the city of Bandung which is a tourist destination is the Lembang Region.From the last five years the lodging area in Lembang has increased, currently in Lembang sub-district itself has 13 lodging units in the form of resorts. The amount itself is influenced by the high demand for lodging accommodation especially when the holiday season arrives. But of that number, resorts that have complete and well-maintained facilities and conditions are still not completely even. Based on this fact, the purpose of designing this resort is expected to be the best tourist area in the region to be able to adjust to the conditions of the land conditions, be able to use and not damage the existing land on the design land.The study used in this design is based on the description that occurs today with the support of the literature that supports the theory and analysis that is done. Implementation analysis was carried out using macro and microanalysis methods. Macro analysis is an analysis on a regional scale. While microanalysis is an analysis of the design site, which includes activity analysis, function analysis, space analysis, site analysis, shape analysis, and display and structural analysis and utility.The concept of site and building in this design will produce a conceptual relationship that will later become a guideline in making a design. This concept includes the proposed concept of site design, form, structure, and utility.
