Summary: | The legislation on specially protected
natural areas is currently being reformed to ensure
tourism development. New territories emerge,
within the boundaries of which, on the one hand,
there are unique natural sites, including geological
ones, corresponding to the criteria of specially
protected natural areas, and on the other hand,
these areas are not given a special protection
regime and they intersect with the previously
established specially protected natural areas. This
raises concerns about the proper preservation of
unique natural sites and necessitates the definition
of a set of legal means that could ensure both the
economic development of such territories (primarily
active tourism) and the preservation of natural
sites of special scientific, cultural and aesthetic
value, that means sustainable development of
territories. Based on the intersectoral, instrumental
and formal-legal approach, the article considers
theoretical foundations of the legal regime of
specially protected natural areas (option – to
give this regime to geoparks) for the purposes of
ensuring and preserving unique geological sites and
economic development of the territory, including
tourism; alternative legal means of ensuring these
purposes, including legal institutions for territory
planning and integrated territorial development;
advantages and disadvantages of the considered
options for the application of these legal means.
The article proposes a system of legal means and
legislative changes for the development of geoparks. |
