Landa-garapen politika eta ingurumenarekiko harremana Euskal Autonomia Erkidegoan (1992-2008)

Abstract

Rural development policies, apart from revitalizating traditional activities and promoting socioeconomic restructuration within rural areas, have included a vision increasingly relying on land planning and environmental issues. The article analyzes just this, i.e. the environmentalization process that the rural development policy has undergone in the Basque Country. Apart from forestry and agri-environmental mesures, in this process must be paid attention on Natural Protected Areas policy, which to a certain extent merges with rural policy in terms of function and time horizon.
