Center for Coastal & Marine Studies
A new book on MSP has been published
Maritime Spatial Planning - past, present, future
Editors:
Prof. Jacek Zaucha
Dr. Kira Gee
ISBN 978-3-319-98696-8
This open access book is the first comprehensive overview of maritime or marine spatial planning. Countries across the globe are beginning to implement maritime spatial plans; however the authors of this collection have identified several key questions that are emerging from this growing body of MSP experience. How can maritime spatial planning deal with a complex and dynamic environment such as the sea? How can MSP be embedded in multiple levels of governance across regional and national borders – and how far does the environment benefit from this new approach? This book actively engages with the problems encapsulated in these questions, and explores possible solutions.
