Resolving Conflicts between Conservation and Recreation in Protected Areas: A Comparative Legal Analysis of the United States and China

چکیده
Public land-use patterns have undergone tremendous transformation across different jurisdictions in recent years. Two dominant features of this transformative process include an increase in public awareness of nature conservation, which can be seen from the prevalence of the designation of protected areas (PAs), and an increase in recreational needs that accompanies the blossoming of the nature-based tourism industry. The effective management and resolution of conflicts between conservation and recreation that arise from the designation and management of PAs have become a common task for PA managers and PA law. By adopting the methodologies of classic legal analysis, comparative legal study and semi-structured field study, this research aims to answer the following question: how are conflicts between conservation and recreation in PAs managed and resolved in the legal regimes of the US and China through institutional interactions among legislatures, agencies and courts, and how should these conflicts be managed and resolved?
