自然文化遗产资源与经济发展

在全球化的进程中,自然文化遗产的经济价值明显地提升了,其经济价值和其他价值之间的矛盾也变得越来越突出。如果能够有效地利用自然文化遗产资源的比较优势来发展旅游业,就可以实现自然文化遗产所在地经济良性增长的目标,并使环境资源冲突与环境代价降到最低限度。因此,我们必须重新认识自然文化遗产保护与经济发展之间的关系。既要重视自然文化遗产资源在经济与社会可持续发展中的作用,更要在开发与利用的同时,充分认识到这种珍贵而稀缺资源的脆弱性及其不可再生性,切实采取有效的措施保护其安全和延续。

Natural and Cultural Heritage Resources and Economic Development

In the process of globalization, the economic value of natural and cultural heritages is distinctively augmented, so is the conflict between this value and the other values. If natural and cultural heritage resources can best be used to develop tourism, economic growth in the related areas can be maintained in a virtuous circle, and the conflict between environment and resources and the environmental cost as well can be greatly minimized. That is why the relation between the conservation of natural and cultural heritage and economic development must be reevaluated, so that the resources of this kind can be of great help in the sustainable social and economic development. Measures should be taken so that the vulnerability and non-renewability of such resources can be fully realized, and their sustainability, maintained.
