ResumenEl objetivo de este trabajo es analizar la participación ciudadana en el proceso de planeación del ordenamiento ecológico del municipio de Juárez. Esto es mediante la evaluación de las capacidades de los actores sociales para establecer los criterios que llevaron a conformar las unidades de gestión ambiental (UGA) y establecer la política ambiental que corresponde a cada UGA del municipio de Juárez en Chihuahua. Esta participación se dio a través de los talleres de planeación participativa. Los resultados indican que los talleres participativos son una herramienta efectiva para establecer un diálogo reflexivo sobre problemáticas comunes en donde los diferentes actores tienen la misma oportunidad  para externar sus ideas y propuestas.AbstractThis paper shows the analysis of citizen participation in the process of ecological land use planning. This is done by evaluating the skills that actors have to stablish the criteria that led to the shaping of environmental management units and its environmental policy. The results indicate that the participatory planning workshops are an effective tool for setting a thoughtful dialogue about common problems where different actors have the same opportunity to express their ideas and proposals.

Active Involvement

Citizen participation in the planning and decision-making process in the European post-socialist context is much debated. Still, the involvement of excluded communities in the urban planning process remains understudied. This paper presents and discusses the application of an innovative participatory approach designed to ensure active involvement of an excluded ethnic minority, the Roma community, in the process of formulating and adopting land-use plans for informal settlements in Serbia. By analysing the development of land-use plans in 11 municipalities, we observe that the applied participatory approach enhanced the inhabitants’ active participation and helped build consensus on the planned solution between the key actors. Findings also suggested that further work with citizens, capacity building of planners and administration, and secured financial mechanisms are needed to move citizen participation in urban planning beyond the limited statutory requirements.

Planning Discourse

This paper contributes to the growing body of work on planning discourse. In the context of the current ‘greening’ of British land-use planning, it poses the question: “How is the term ‘environment’ articulated within planning discourse?” With the use of material from development plans and development-control decision letters, an analysis is made of the term ‘environment’ which distinguishes ‘mundane’ and ‘sublime’ interpretations. The function of the texts analysed is then related to the dominant meaning given to the term, This raises further questions concerning the current preoccupation with using the land-use planning system to implement environmental policy and identifies the problems of moving between strategic planning and detailed development-control levels, a problem reflected in and compounded by the distinct operation of planning discourse at the two levels.

Definition Of

The objective of this work is to define and base the principles of environmental management through the introduction of regenerative (restorative) and productive methods of environmental policy. The problems were solved with the help of such general and special research methods, such as generalization, systematization, analysis, synthesis, and the empirical method. It is argued that the operation of industrial enterprises without a balanced set of appropriate environmental measures always has negative consequences. The formation of environmental awareness of entrepreneurs, assigning to environmental management the status of a mandatory component of the policy to achieve regional environmental objectives, requires greater attention and effective methodological developments. The strategic directions of ecological development of one of the regions of Ukraine are indicated. The essence of the concept of "environmental management" is defined. The definition of "regenerative method of ecological management" and "productive method of ecological management" is offered. In conclusion, scientific ideas on the feasibility of implementing environmental management in companies are presented. The need for ecological measures for the implementation of ecological policy is based.

Use Of Resources

The reasons of the degradation of agricultural land, the innovative tasks of optimizing land use and the prospects for scientific support of agricultural environmental management are considered. The necessity of technological agriculture modernization on the base of the adaptive landscape systems development and high-tech agricultural technologies is justified. Further development of adaptive intensification of agriculture and land use is associated with the design of optimal agricultural landscapes (agricultural landscapes, livestock, water, residential and others) in the system of ecological frameworks of the territory integrated with field infrastructure. As a toolkit for landscape design a structural functional landscape analysis is proposed. The Land use regulation, land relations, land market is aimed to the development of government land policy; introduction of a land use control system; limiting the maximum size of land in the property; prohibition to the acquisition of land by foreign citizens in various forms; a progressive increase of land tax on the increase of land area in property; restoration of state land management; the creation of a State Land Service. As the most important condition for optimizing the use of resources and environmental management in general the need to adjust the economic course, the formation of government land policy based on strategic land use planning and the solution of a number of legal, management, organizational, personnel and educational tasks are considered.

Administrative Framework

This chapter examines the environmental law system of Singapore, with particular emphasis on the role of an effective environmental management system (EMS) in the city-state’s successful management of the environment. The EMS of Singapore consists of an administrative framework, comprehensive land use planning, and the implementation and enforcement of effective pollution control laws. Before analysing the central features of the EMS, the chapter provides an overview of Singapore’s legal system and sources of law. It then considers the structure and substance of environmental law as it applies to pollution control (air pollution, pollution from stationary sources/industries, pollution from vehicles, emissions from other sources), water pollution and water management, waste management, contaminated sites, noise, nature conservation, and climate change. The discussion concludes with an assessment of the administrative framework for environmental management, focusing on the role of government agencies and strategies for land use planning, including judicious siting of industries.
