| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立政治大學 === 地政研究所 === 96 === Urban landscaping is a public good enjoyed by all. However, cluttered buildings, billboards, and people’s lack of awareness of landscape protection have distorted Taiwan’s city skyline. As a result, cramped conditions not only impair quality of life, but also undermine tourism, city competitiveness and Taiwan’s national image.
Taiwan implements a number of laws and other mechanisms to govern urban design and landscape planning, but these laws are incapable of tackling actual problems. Even as efforts are underway to prepare drafts of the Landscape Act, there remains vagueness and disputes over the contents. In general, the landscape management systems in Taiwan leave much to be desired.
In contrast, Japan is experienced in administering landscape laws despite similar landscape complications. They not only enacted the “Landscape Act” which integrated with the preceding laws, but also imposed several regulations so that local residents and government can observe according to their real life situations. Using this as the backdrop, this thesis mainly examines Japan’s landscape protection laws, landscape protection measures, and landscape litigation, through which Taiwan can refer to for the purpose of her landscape lawmaking in future.
