9781781951910 1781951918 'Craig, an environmental law scholar, reviews the history of managing and governing coastal and oceanic systems after providing an extended abstract on historical and current stresses to these areas. She concludes with an extended section detailing emerging management philosophy and practices. The author's writing style is clear and remarkably lively. . . the book is a good introduction to an emerging topic - managing natural systems as the climate changes.' - S.R. Fegley, Choice 'This short book provides a fascinating window into a vast subject.' - Sally Ramage, The Criminal Lawyer Comparative Ocean Governance examines the world's attempts to improve ocean governance through place-based management - marine protected areas, ocean zoning, marine spatial planning - and evaluates this growing trend in light of the advent of climate change and its impacts on the seas. This monograph opens with an explanation of the economics of the oceans and their value to the global environment and the earth's population, the long-term stressors that have impacted oceans, and the new threats to ocean sustainability that climate change poses. It then examines the international framework for ocean management and coastal nations' increasing adoption of place-based governance regimes. The final section explores how these place-based management regimes intersect with climate change adaptation efforts, either accidentally or intentionally. It then offers suggestions for making place-based marine management even more flexible and responsive for the future. Environmental law scholars, legislators and policymakers, marine scientists, and all those concerned for the welfare of the world's oceans will find this book of great value., �Craig, an environmental law scholar, reviews the history of managing and governing coastal and oceanic systems after providing an extended abstract on historical and current stresses to these areas.
