Wilderness Protection in Polar Regions
Springer Polar Sciences, 2017
Wilderness protection in Antarctica has received attention at various previous Polar Law Symposia... more Wilderness protection in Antarctica has received attention at various previous Polar Law Symposia. Generally, these discussions and resulting publications have shown the tension between, on the one hand, the broad societal appreciation of wilderness in Antarctica, and, on the other hand, the limited attention for this concept in law and policy making in the Antarctic Treaty Consultative Meeting (ATCM). Although there have been attempts to place wilderness protection higher on the agendas of the ATCM and the Committee for Environmental Protection (CEP; an advisory body of the ATCM), no substantial progress on the topic has been made. Against this backdrop, Antje Neumann and Kees Bastmeijer will discuss the question to what extent various domestic legal tools (available under domestic legal systems) to protect the European Arctic wilderness might be of value for wilderness protection in Antarctica.

Thus, for example, measures to preserve and conserve living resources in Antarctica, as laid down by Article IX (1) of the Antarctic Treaty (AT), such as the “Agreed Measures for the Conservation of Antarctic Fauna and Flora” of 1964, or the designation of Specially Protected Areas (SPAs) in the following years, provide evidence of these early acknowledgements of wilderness values by Antarctic Treaty Consultative Parties (ATCPs). The planned paper will provide an overview of the evolvement of wilderness protection in Antarctica from a legal point of view, and by doing so; argue that the valuation of wilderness qualities has been a common concern of ATCPs sin...

This supports the conjecture by Wang [Australas. J. Combin. 54 (2012), 59-84]: if G is a graph of order at least (2d + 1)k and the minimum degree of G is at least (d + 1)k with k ≥ 2 then G contains k disjoint cycles of length at least 2d + 1.

Against this background, a PhD-project on the relevance of wilderness concept for managing tourist and other non-governmental activities in Antarctica will be presented. The project is funded by NWO and had been launched in the beginning of 2014. It investigates the central research question: “To what extent can the concept of protecting Antarctic wilderness values constitute a basis for regulating tourism and other non-governmental activities in Antarctica, taking particular notice of experiences and ‘lessons learnt’ in other wilderness areas in the world?” In doings so, first results will be introduced, comprising, among other, a preliminary working approach that has been developed to investigate the subjects of research and an outline of the main motivations for protecting Antarctica’s ...

The Federal Urban Planning Code 2004 provides the legal basis for these regulations. Recent efforts for its amendment, which also include the introduction of strategic environmental assessments of plans and programmes, could strengthen the consideration of environmental issues in spatial planning. The first part of the article presents the main regulations concerning spatial planning in Russia. The second part will describe the most important legal instruments for taking into account ecological issues. Last but not least, it focuses on approaches to improve the integration of ecological issues into spatial planning decisions as well as on deficiencies and regulatory gaps.
