Sonderheft "Protected Areas and Biodiversity Conservation"

Date of publication: 04/30/2008

In the words of IUCN – The World Conservation Union, a protected area is »an area of land and/or sea especially dedicated to the protection and maintenance of biological diversity, and of natural and associated cultural resources …«. Can protected areas live up to these expectations? And what determines success or failure in protected area management? This issue seeks to tease out answers to these questions.
