摘要
En 中文
The literature about forest fire legislation is extensive, highlighting several perspectives, different methodologies of analysis and considering diverse parts of the world as the basis of study. In these frameworks the discussions about the legal and policy instruments are not always consensual, what calls for more contributions in these fields. This study surveys the literature available, using the Web of Science platform and focusing on the subject of forest fire legislation. About sixty documents were analyzed covering the twenty-years period from 1997 to 2017. The objective is to contribute to the debate about this contested topic, specifically in terms of whether forest fire legislation is reactive to catastrophic occurrences or proactive, if it is sufficient for policies' designing, if it is complementary and whether some instruments are in conflict. The literature review shows that several authors argue that forest fire legislation is reactive to large occurrences, where government focuses primarily on the extent of the burnt area rather than the forestry development. Additionally, forest fire legislation is interrelated with other aspects, including legislative instruments' effectiveness or forest management and planning. Finally, the conflicts or complementarity among the legal documents are addressed. The findings presented here could be interesting insights for the several stakeholders related with the forest fire legislation, namely for the policymakers.
