THINK GLOBAL — ACT PROBLEM-ORIENTED AND LOCAL: CAN AN EXTENDED VIEW INCREASE THE POWER FOR INTERDISCIPLINARITY

Kofler W.

Abstract

The year of ecology in Russia is an opportunity to reflect the global environmental problems and to integrate the related conclusions and the demands of inhabitants and tourists on the geographical and related ecological characteristics for health-oriented recreation into the concepts for natural management. This would be a strategy for a comprehensive sustainable development. But not all fundamentals for such a concept are available. There is a special lack in the relevance of subjectively attributed aspects: «Some know the price of all but the value of nothing». So it is relevant to integrate perceiving, beauty, esthetics etc. into the characterization of ecological and manmade geographical units — thanks to an Extended View as well on the person as on the environment.
