  Article:   WHEN THE CITY MEETS THE SEA: A GLOCALIZED COASTAL ZONE MANAGEMENT MODEL.

Authors:  YARON KLEIN. 		 
       
         
  Abstract:  Increased awareness of the environmental complexities of coastal cities has led to a variety of management strategies. However, there is still a knowledge gap in how global strategies are locally implemented, and how tensions between stakeholders affect outcome. The author, the CEO of the municipal corporation managing the development and planning of the Tel Aviv-Yafo coastline, explores the historical development of coastal policies over time and frames the Israeli context. The important impacts of globalization and the variety of different tools used to manage the coastline are illustrated with global examples of spatial plans and projects that are compared and critiqued. With this framework in mind, this paper introduced a decision-making model for coastal cities. This is an important topic for municipal stakeholders given ever increasing coastal pressures, and the necessity of finding a sustainable balance between societal and ecological needs.
