Abstract

The renewed interest in landscape, promoted by the European Landscape Convention of the Council of Europe (2000) (CEP), has been incorporated into the political agenda and into the legislative and instrumental developments of Spanish public administrations, particularly those of the Autonomous Communities and some local administrations. Despite the topicality of the landscape issue, landscape as an object of protection has traditionally been present in Spanish legislation, both in the protection of nature and cultural heritage, as well as in urban planning and other types of sectoral regulations. The comparative study synthesizes the profuse and diverse treatment of landscape in state and autonomous community legislation. The last part deals with the advances and innovations introduced by certain specific laws on landscape approved by the Autonomous Communities for the protection, management and planning of landscape as an element of quality of life and territorial heritage in accordance with the CEP and within the horizon of the Spanish Urban Agenda.
