In order to grasp and understand the changes occurring, the need emerges for new, con- ceptual approaches that make it possible to combine the different factors that shape spaces. Recent, literature on the multifunctional character of rural spaces and their transition pathways shows the, need for spatially based approaches, where the natural characteristics of a landscape are combined, with the socio-economic and cultural drivers that affect its changes. Experience shows how practical, questions on the changes affecting the rural, addressed by society to the scientific community, are of a, new character and require novel research approaches. This paper argues that landscape based, approaches can be useful basis for the required conceptual innovation. The paper presents and, discusses a set of examples of prac- tice driven research developments, in contrasting regions of Europe. And it proposes a conceptual model which aims to contextualize empirical research driven by, problems set up in practice, and combining the ecological and structural dimensions with the socioeconomic, and cultural ones, all converging in the rural landscape, at multiple scales. The landscape, as, the spatial entity, in its material and immaterial dimensions, is presented in this paper as the most, comprehensive basis for the required step forward. This does not mean a disciplinary landscape, analysis revisited, but a new multi-scale and multi-domain place based approach, where the place is, the rural landscape</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>47</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Oliveira, R.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pinto-Correia, T.</style></author></authors><secondary-authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Light, S.</style></author></secondary-authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">An interdisciplinary approach for integrating landscape management in the Common Agricultural Policy: Application to the municipality of Mertola, Southern Alentejo, Portugal</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ROLE OF BIODIVERSITY CONSERVATION IN THE TRANSITION TO RURAL SUSTAINABILITY</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2004</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2004///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">I O S PRESS</style></publisher><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">41</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">254 - 260</style></pages><isbn><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1-58603-395-6</style></isbn><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">This paper seeks to present the methodological approach of a case-studyat a local scale, in the south of Portugal, where the European Union
Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) has significant impacts in terms of
environment, socioeconomic and landscape aspects.
The municipality of Mertola is located in the south-eastern part of the
Alentejo Region, in a marginal area in relation to socio-economic
parameters and agricultural production. As in the region as a whole, the
dominant land use system is the Montado in a diversified pattern, which
has in the last decades been subject. to successive significant changes,
raising questions as to future landscape quality, identity and the
required management. As in other European rural areas, the
transformations in agriculture and the productive function resulted in
changes in the landscape, which have impacts also on other functions
such as conservation, environment balance, recreation, life support and
preservation of cultural identity. These other functions attract each
day more attention as a possible set of alternatives uses in marginal
areas of Europe, such as Mertola. This actual context requires thus a
landscape management based on integrated policies for the rural world,
following the new perspectives of the CAP but also based on a deep
knowledge of local landscape dynamics and requirements for preservation
of identity. This project intends to evaluate and understand:
(a) the changes that have occurred in the municipality in the last
decades; and
(b) how they have affected landscape pattern and also people's
perception and connections to this landscape identity.
The intent is to build up proposals for a more integrated and locally
adapted formulation of CAP objectives and instruments. This paper will
present the changes in landscape pattern and character registered in the
study area for the last decades, the interdisciplinary methodology
adopted, as well as the results of the first phase of the project.

Nowadays only few of them are still vital. Their complex farming systems secure at the same time a multitude of other functions than just agricultural production, such as support for recreation, amenity, cultural identity, preservation of natural resources and environmental quality. Some of these unique, old Mediterranean landscapes are discussed. They cover a broad range from near-tonature high mountain landscapes and terraced small-scale submediterranean polyculture landscapes to dry Mediterranean agro-silvo-pastoral landscapes. All these are changing, either spontaneously due to changing socio-economic and cultural conditions, or as a result of conscious policies, with the Common Agricultural Policy as a main driver. Even measures created to support specific traditional land uses and their landscapes are often not successful as they focus on only a part of the system. These policies and measures will not hold the valuable traditional systems from collapsing and subsequent vanishing. Some other policy instruments, such as those in forestry, are not meant to support them, but to transform them in favour of new monofunctionality. New strategies and instruments ought to deal with these multifunctional landscapes in a more integrated way, if some of them are to be maintained or transformed into others with similar qualities.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;periodical: The New Dimensions of the European Landscapes</style></notes></record></records></xml>
