Sinopsis

The Natura 2000 network of protected areasáis the centrepiece of European Unionánature policy, currently covering almost one-fifth of the EUâÇÖs entire land territory plus large marine areas. This vast EU-wide network, which aims to conserve EuropeâÇÖs most valuable and threatened species and habitats, has major impacts on land use throughoutáall Member Statesáof the EU. This book critically assesses the origins and implementation of the Natura 2000 network, established under the Birds Directive of 1979 and the Habitats Directive of 1992.á Based on original archival research and interviews with key participants, the book records a detailed history of the origins and negotiation of Natura 2000 policy and law, with the history of EU environmental policy provided as a framework. An historical institutionalist approach is adopted, which emphasises the importance of understanding legal and policy development as processes that unfold over time. Three phases in the history of EU environmental policy are identified and described, and the history of EU nature policy is placed within the context of these three phases. Informed by this history, theáauthor presents a comprehensive summary and assessment of the law and policy that protects Natura 2000 sites at EU level, andáreviews the nature conservation outcomes for the targeted species and habitats. The book reveals how a knowledge of the history of Natura 2000 enriches our understanding of key issues such as conflicts in establishing and conserving the Natura 2000 network, EU integration in the field of nature conservation, and the future of EU nature policy.
