This has led some conservationists and social scientists to highlight the need for enhanced knowledge on the complex interrelationships between cultural and biological diversities if successful conservation strategies are to be achieved. In this work we show how the long-term coevolution between peasants and their environment sustained habitats and species that are now declining along with rural exodus in a mountainous area of the Mediterranean, a region where the maintenance of diverse landscapes is very much related to the presence of traditional rural activities. We provide an account of agrosilvopastoral practices once performed by the local peasant community and show their embeddedness in a particular set of institutions and worldview within an adaptive social–ecological system. We argue that such practices constitute an essential social–ecological heritage entailing valuable insights for the conservation of Mediterranean landscapes under conditions of global change.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>7</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Naveh, Z</style></author></authors><secondary-authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">RUNDEL, P</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">MONTENEGRO, G</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">JAKSIC, F M</style></author></secondary-authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">FROM BIODIVERSITY TO ECODIVERSITY – HOLISTIC CONSERVATION OF THE BIOLOGICAL AND CULTURAL DIVERSITY OF MEDITERRANEAN LANDSCAPES .</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">LANDSCAPE DISTURBANCE AND BIODIVERSITY IN MEDITERRANEAN – TYPE ECOSYSTEMS.

In this chapter I will point out currently prevailing trends in Mediterranean landscapes in the context of our global environmental crisis. This will lead to a discussion of the close interrelations between biological diversity, ecological heterogeneity, and cultural diver- sity, or in one word, total landscape ecodiversity in the Mediterranean Basin, and to recent advances in landscape ecology in the evaluation of this issue. I will conclude by offering some new approaches and tools for holistic ecodiversity conservation as an integral part of the urgently needed environmental revolution</style></abstract></record></records></xml>
