Abstract

Abstract The author addresses the evolution of environmental cooperation in the Mediterranean region by surveying the Mediterranean Action Plan framework and recent initiatives by UN specialized and funding agencies promoting sustainable development. The author notes that an initial concern with marine pollution in the 1970s led to greater attention to integrated planning of development of coastal and marine areas since the 1980s. In concluding, the author draws attention to growing complexity, the limits of regionalism, the continuing lack of popular constituencies for regional arrangements, and problems of implementation.
