In Italy, after the introduction of the Code of Cultural Heritage and Landscape in 2004, the Regional Landscape Plan (RLP) has acquired a coordination role in the urban planning system, for the implementation of policies for landscape protection and valorisation. The case study of the RLP of Sardinia is a paradigmatic application to the coastal area of the island, which is considered most vulnerable and subject to settlement pressure. The objectives of preservation and valorisation of the territorial resources should be transferred into local planning instruments by adopting strategies aimed at the preservation of the consolidated urban fabric, at the requalification and completion of the existing built-up areas according to the principles of land take limitation and increase in urban quality. The paper investigates the state of implementation and the level of integration of landscape contents in the local plans that have been adapted to the RLP, using a qualitative comparative method. In addition, the results of the plan coherence checks, elaborated by the regional monitoring bodies after the adaptation process, have been analysed to identify the common criticalities and weaknesses. The results highlight the lack of effectiveness of the RLP, after more than a decade since its approval, considering the limited number of adequate local plans and the poor quality of their analytical and regulative contents in terms of landscape protection and valorisation. Conclusions suggest some possible ways to revise the RLP, focusing on the participation of local communities and the development of a new landscape culture.

Abstract Historical maps are a valuable resource in landscape research. The information gathered from them facilitates the cognisance of landscapes and may assist current landscape planning. This study focuses on the historical occurrence and spatial extent of man-made ponds in the Czech Republic. Based on the 1st Military Survey maps (1764–1783) of the Habsburg Monarchy, we use Historical GIS to identify 7,676 man-made ponds in the historical landscape. Compared to the 2nd Military Survey maps (1836–1852), 56% of these man-made ponds had been drained. Such disappearances mostly affected large ponds in fertile agricultural areas, but also affected small reservoirs in less fertile areas at higher altitudes. As the current maps and spatial datasets (Water reservoirs, Landscape water regime, Farming areas) show, a number of these agricultural regions have been affected by climate changes and face water shortages. The historical map information of former ponds has the potential to contribute to their restoration in areas where water retention in the landscape needs to be increased.

The objective of the present paper is to elucidate the practices performed by farming cooperatives regarding the tax, accounting and administrative management linked to the Tax Incentive for Innovation (TII). In this sense, the relation between the tax regime of cooperatives and access to TII was investigated. For a better understanding of this, a research of qualitative nature, whose investigation method was the single case study, was performed, in which the analysis unit was a Brazilian Agroindustry Cooperatives Central. Such Central comprehends a group of 30 agroindustry cooperatives and has the largest industrial park of powdered milk in Latin America. Besides that, such organization houses Research & Development (R&D) department. As a result, it was inferred that the policies that regiment the incentive for innovation confront the nature of cooperatives, decreasing the capacity such organizations have in the appropriation of this policy. Thus, there is a reducer factor in the participation of cooperatives in TII. Hence, it is suggested a debate involving the diverse actors in the innovation system, in which cooperatives are involved, to decide if such reducer factor must be overcome or accepted. Finally, the tax, accounting and administrative management that routinely operates in the Central was able to respond to the new specific procedures related to the use of the policy in debate, without the implementation of new processes.
