Resumen
Descripción
One of the most difficult issues to be
addressed in enabling, and conducting invasive control
measures, is simply the need to apply practical legislative
reasoning to the process. It is difficult because of the
fact that introduction of new species cannot simply be
prohibited; and, due to lack of current scientific ability
to know in advance which species will become invasive. The
report addresses these issues, and stipulates legislation of
invasive species issues must always involve a balancing of
interests-the interests mandating introduction, balanced
against the interests involved in protecting natural, and
agricultural ecosystems from destruction by such species.
This paper is designed to consider questions of
"motivation, capability, and reality," and to
consider possible legislative approaches for developing
countries. It comprises five parts as follows. Part I
provides a conceptual and scientific summary and
introduction, and Part II provides a very brief overview of
some of the key global developments in the field, while Part
III examines in greater detail the legislative tools
available for use in the control of specie introduction, and
invasive species. Part IV discusses some of the special
concerns relating to the process of building one, or more
legislative frameworks utilizing the legislative tools
described in Part III, and, provides, in some cases, a brief
identification of how the selection and use of those tools
might differ within the developing country context from
their use in other places.
