Management of Natural Spaces. Nature is not made up of closed, independent Systems, but of a variety of specific natural entities linked to each other in space and time. One must move beyond a System of management that revolves around the protection and conservation of natural spaces towards one that involves forward planning. Man should no longer be considered the center of nature when he is only a tiny part of it. The relationship between nature conservation and economic growth should be redefined, as should the allocation of responsibilities, in order to integrate nature conservation into a comprehensive approach, which alone would provide a genuine basis for altering management practices.
