Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Transition to Sustainability 'details how all nations are repositioning their economies, their societies and their collective purpose to maintain all life on Earth, peacefully, healthily, equitably and with sufficient wealth to ensure that all are content in their survival.' From the Preface The governments of Europe are committed, in principle, to the implementation of sustainable development policies. What will this mean in practice? Most importantly, how compatible is such implementation with other commitments to economic growth and competitive markets? Can it be achieved, and what are the implications for all other policy areas? This book looks at the implications for government, business, taxation, planning, measures of change and local communities within the European Union. Country case studies include Germany, Norway, Greece, Portugal and the UK. The Editors conclude by giving an overview of progress so far, and offer pointers for the future. Policy makers, researchers and students across the range of social sciences will find this a valuable and groundbreaking book.
Book Synopsis EU Environmental Policy by : Nigel Haigh
Download or read book EU Environmental Policy written by Nigel Haigh and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-12-14 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At a time when Europeans across the continent are focused on the EU's future direction, this book provides an important contribution to the current debate. Created for reasons quite unconnected with the environment, the EU has been given a compelling new justification by the success of its environmental policy. A number of factors – including a number of threats that came to prominence in the 1980s, and the new concept of 'sustainable development' – are responsible for pushing environmental policy to the forefront of its agenda. Nigel Haigh, a leading authority on the development and implementation of EU environmental policy, traces its evolution from obscurity to centrality. Drawing on a range of articles and lectures, he demonstrates how the EU has not only adapted itself to take on entirely new subject matter, but also has contributed to solving problems which individual Member States could not have dealt with on their own. The book goes on to contextualise the issues throughout its history and offers insight into the future role of the EU in environmental matters. This book is a valuable resource for academics and scholars as well as professionals and policy makers in the areas of environment and sustainability, politics, international relations and European affairs.

Download or read book Wine and Identity written by Matt Harvey and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-01-10 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an increasingly competitive global market, winemakers are seeking to increase their sales and wine regions to attract tourists. To achieve these aims, there is a trend towards linking wine marketing with identity. Such an approach seeks to distinguish wine products – whether wine or wine tourism – from their competitors, by focusing on cultural and geographical attributes that contribute to the image and experience. In essence, marketing wine and wine regions has become increasingly about telling stories – engaging and provocative stories which engage consumers and tourists and translate into sales. This timely book examines this phenomena and how it is leading to changes in the wine and tourism industries for the first time. It takes a global approach, drawing on research studies from around the world including old and new world wine regions. The volume is divided into three parts. The first – branding – investigates cases where established regions have sought to strengthen their brands or newer regions are striving to create effective emerging brands. The second – heritage – considers cases where there are strong linkages between cultural heritage and wine marketing. The third section – terroir – explores how a ‘sense of place’ is inherent in winescapes and regional identities and is increasingly being used as a distinctive selling proposition. This significant volume showcasing the connections between place, identity, variety and wine will be valuable reading for students, researchers and academics interested in tourism, marketing and wine studies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Um estudo imprescindível para para os nossos dias. Sobre o autor, escreve Cristovam Buarque: “... de Ignacy Sachs, recebi a mais forte influência na descoberta do valor da Natureza e, sobretudo, na compreensão de que esse valor não pode ser pensado desvinculado do papel da tecnologia. Como seu aluno, no final dos anos 60, aprendi a abrir meu universo de reflexão para uma heterodoxia crítica, sem cair nas armadilhas do preconceito e comprometida com o tempo real; assumi o ditame do rigor das análises e a necessidade de casar minhas preocupações universais com o entendimento do local. Aprendi o valor da generosidade que todo aquele que se diz humanista deveria aprender de Ignacy Sachs.”

Human Capital and People Management in the Tourism Industry is a crucial reference source that reveals groundbreaking human resource policies for tourism destinations, revolutionary human capital managerial business approaches in tourism, innovative tourism training perspectives, and new tourism qualification prospects.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Sustaining Sustainability is an inside story on the state of the art of national strategies for sustainable development in nine EU member states, with a particular focus on the role of national councils for sustainable development (SDC) in producing and implementing SD strategies (SDS). Such councils have been created by national governments, stimulated by the Agenda 21, with the purpose of fostering dialogue for SD among stakeholders, and between stakeholders and government, as well as monitoring progress and encouraging initiatives. The study was financed by the participating councils and supported by EEAC, the European network of advisory councils for environment and sustainable development. All 6 countries in the European Union with a well-established SDC participated (B, D, FIN, IRE, P, UK), plus three countries with environment or other councils engaged in the SD agenda (HUN, NL, S). 7 countries have a SDS and one is currently developing one; some have already seen at least one revision phase. With an in-depth approach the study attempts to look behind the curtains of SD processes."--Executive Summary.
