| Research Abstract |
The coastal zone is a complex natural system consisting of a marine and a terrestrial environment. It is used excessively by a variety of coastal users because of its important resources and its unique environment. Thus, the need for successful coastal zone management arises. However, there is no best solution for users involved in the coastal zone because the goals of coastal zone management vary for all users and the authorities concerned. A large number of attempts have been carried out in many coastal states to build optimal coastal zone management. Nevertheless, little attention has been given to why and how a successful coastal zone management has developed in a particular region or district. Therefore, this study attempts to analyze the development of regional coastal zone management system based on several case studies carried out in Japan. Several development stages are observed and their characteristics are described. The mechanism of the transition is also analyzed. The author also proposes a circuit model that explains transformational changes in management system by focusing on knowledge creation. The model can provide a useful evolutionary design for adaptive management by creating, transforming and introducing knowledge autonomously. The author believes that the model can be a unique and useful tool for designing a local coastal zone management system. This study may be the first to document a knowledge-based approach to coastal zone management.
