<span><span>Collaborative Land Use Management: The Quieter Revolution in Place-Based Planning</span><span> discusses the less-regulatory approaches to land use management that have emerged over the past 35 years, analyzing the collective value of such place-based planning approaches as land trusts, open-space ballot measures, watershed conservancies, ecoregional plans, and smart-growth initiatives. </span><span>Collaborative Land Use Management</span><span> appraises these trends from physical, social, economic, civic, and environmental justice perspectives. Mason seeks to answer such questions as:<br><br>· What are the environmental justice implications of smart-growth efforts?<br>· How is the property-rights movement affecting collaborative planning?<br>· What is the significance of newly created planning regions?<br>· What do these approaches mean in the larger context of the future of the American landscape?<br>· How do we begin to evaluate and assess these efforts?<br><br>Robert Mason pulls together a wide array of land-use planning initiatives into a synthetic and critical story. Incorporating many insightful case studies, </span><span>Collaborative Land-Use Management</span><span> is intended for planners, practitioners, policy-makers, geographers, and students with interests in environment and landscape.</span></span>
