Abstract
The techniques of environment impact assessment, environment planning and protected areas are manifestations of the of western society with its growth of rationality, bureaucratisation and the centrality accorded to science. Environment impact assessment and planning techniques are also part of a growing international perspective on environmentalism that is moving towards common environmental standards and policies. The concept of formally protected areas is being subsumed into this globalist perspective, part of a scientifically-based discourse that argues loss of biodiversity is a global issue requiring a global solution.
