Economic Nature

Due to their natural resources the coastal areas are one of the most populated and exploited places on earth. Economic activities are carried out in such areas most actively, as they have a special appeal for humans. The advantages of coastal areas provide an opportunity to implement a variety of economic activities, and also determine their potential for development. However, active economic activities in coastal areas, in most cases, contribute to environmental degradation and leads to depletion of natural resources, and as a result, may cause a loss of the capacity for sustainable development of coastal areas. In this regard, it is these territories that have the most acute environmental protection issues, as a result of man-induced impact on coastal areas. The given paper considers foreign experience of management of coastal areas development through an integrated approach which is the main vector of the territory development. The studied foreign experience revealed that an integrated approach to coastal area management as a tool for sustainable development can change the attitude of people to the environmental problem, as the balance between tourism and environmental protection promotes the conservation of natural resources. At present, problems arising from the rapid development of economic activities in coastal areas, faced by management structures at all levels require timely decisions based on the concept of sustainable development. In this study, the authors found out that one of the factors of sustainable development of coastal areas is an ecological and social development, which is seen as closely interrelated aspects, not as separate directions of sustainable development. Currently, you need to create a management system for coastal territories, based on continuous planning and monitoring with regard to the specific features and problems of natural, human and socio-economic nature of such areas.

The Relationship

Coastal erosion is the process of land erosion in coastal areas due to waves and ocean currents which reduce land and can adversely affect socio-economic activities in coastal areas. Coastal erosion risk assessment in the estuary is a development of previous research, because the erosion and accretion processes do not only occur along the shoreline, but also on the side facing river water bodies, due to the confluence of fluvial and marine processes. The landward shift of the shoreline in the Muara Asam Asam coastal area has reached 90 meters in the last 28 years, and has been detrimental because the area is a densely populated area with major economic activities in the fisheries and agriculture sectors. This study aims to determine the coastal erosion risk level zones based on the relationship among vulnerability and consequence parameters, through distance decay weighted based method. The results indicate that Muara Asam Asam has high risk zones of coastal erosion, especially in densely populated residential areas and dry land agriculture on the west side of the estuary, due to the lack of implementation of preventive measures through hard coastal structure and coastal zoning policy to protect socio-economic activities and coastal ecological environments.

Motto: “We cannot prevent disasters ... What we hope to do is to be more proactive, to be better prepared so that we can react better, faster.” Winston Choo, 2006The exigencies of environmental protection must be concomitantly achieved both at micro and macroeconomic levels, at individual and national states and international communities’ levels. No matter the scale we refer to, there should be taken strict actions meant to modify the present tendencies of environmental deterioration in order to permanently maintain an equitable balance between satisfying the more and more diverse necessities of present society and protecting all components of environment. Although it is difficult or, in some cases, even impossible to establish their appearance within time and space coordinates, the majority associates them with the period of industrial revolution, because the man’s wish of a better, more sustainable life has uncontrollable effects on the environment, or the climate. Thus, the change with its multiple faces and components remains a priority for the protection of the environment and of the sustainable development, and people face the most important choice of their long history.One with paradigmatic values – having rational, ecologic, protectionist, emotional, educational valences – generated by the troubling metamorphoses like: the exhaustion of natural resources, “baby-boom” beyond any control, the ecologic unbalances, the inequality of chances when education, health and carrier are concerned.

AbstractSoutheast Asia has come under scholarly focus for the contradictions of rapid development and environmental protection, and the ensuing politics. Most give Singapore a miss because it is a "strange" case that does not fit into a region where affected local peoples, "middle class" activists and developmental states struggle over the exploitation of natural resources and environmental degradation. This paper claims that analysis of the "quiet" politics of environment in Singapore is instructive, and can correct the materialist bias evident in the understanding of Southeast Asian political economy/ecology. It argues that urban "middle class" environmental activism is a manifestation of resistance to enlarging systems of governance allied with capital. Environmentalism can be seen as a response against the encroachment of the system into the intimate living places of the lifeworld. This response is embedded within an international public sphere that enables environmental politics. These activists derive their motivation and political strength from public moral discursive actions. Environmentalism is a contemporary reflection of a fundamental sociological theme, the discontents' moral struggle for the good society, not necessarily reflecting parochial class interests.

Environmental protection has become a burning issue which plays a more and more important role in the world. The aim of this study is to give a picture of the constitutional regulation of environmental protection which is the highest legal source of a nation. Besides the Hungarian Fundamental Law, the German, Italian and Belgian constitutions were examined in the study. On one hand, we looked into how environment is regulated in the constitutions, as a right (right to environment) or a state task or objective (protect the environment). On the other hand, we analysed how related regulatory subjects appear in the constitutions, such as natural resources, future generations and sustainable development.

Environmental litigation expands into economic activities that contribute to global warming and promotes inequitable distribution of natural resources. In the context of climate change litigation, international courts have consistently held that governments need to act on climate change and strive towards sustainable development. Courts are expected to act proactively and provide long-term solutions to environmental problems and address climate change impacts by ensuring compliance of legislative norms. Courts exercise discretionary powers when granting injunctive relief that provide a threshold for courts to intervene and guide economic activities of a nation towards sustainable development. Courts need to protect the legislative intent of the executive, preserve fundamental rights of parties not present before the court while preventing any injury to the defending party by protecting their rights under law or in equity. In the absence of statutory prescriptions for testing environmental harm, courts have established standards for granting interim relief, to ensure there is no abuse of powers to grant injunctions and that such orders are not set aside on grounds of abuse of judicial discretion. This paper prescribes a single, uniform and sufficient standard that calls for ‘Natural Capital’ accounting by federal agencies and private businesses that exploit natural resources for commercial purposes.

Abstract The current plans of the Russian Federation to intensify significantly economic and other activities in Russian Arctic include the widespread exploitation of Arctic natural resources. At the same time, however, high vulnerability of the Arctic environment has been recognized in the country’s legislation. The plans for development in such a vulnerable region as the Arctic give rise to concern as to how it can be realized sustainably. For this reason, it is useful to examine one legal tool of environmental protection, an environmental assessment (EA) procedure, since this institution at least provides the possibility to enable the exploitation of Arctic’s natural resources in a way that protects the environment. Yet, as the article will point out, the conditions for effective EA have been in recent years severely limited, which can be seen in the current legislation. It is hence justifiable to be concerned of the future of Arctic vulnerable environment and, as the article proposes, restore some of the elements of the past EA legislation, which enable a stronger EA mechanism.
