DUVAL, Valeria Soledad y BENEDETTI, Graciela María. Natural heritage conservation policy in Argentina. Finisterra [online]. 2019, n.111, pp.101-118. ISSN 0430-5027. https://doi.org/10.18055/Finis17108.
Natural heritage is a set of goods essential for collective identity and necessary for society to enjoy. Studying it enables the generation of adequate public policies for its conservation. The management instruments must be generated at different scales and be assimilated by the social actors involved. The aim of this work was to analyze the conservation of natural heritage policy in Argentina. To achieve it, a study was conducted on the current situation of biodiversity and geodiversity as key concepts associated with natural heritage and legal management instruments were characterized at different scales. In the case of the Argentine territory, the protected areas of national and provincial jurisdiction were selected as spaces for the protection of natural diversity. The presence of these concepts was analyzed in the legal framework of the protected areas system. The results showed that in Argentina, the strategies are focused on the preservation, restoration and maintenance of biodiversity. Instead, geodiversity has an incipient development. The legal vacuum in the care of abiotic elements and the lack of updating in the existing environmental legislation are some problems that the country faces.
