초록

Islands are often habitats to unique species because they have different environmental conditions from the mainland and other islands. Another characteristic of islands is their limited natural resources, which has led island residents to heavily rely on traditional ecological knowledge (TEK) and use resources sustainably. The so-called “Maeul landscape” shows the interrelationship of biological species and people’s use of natural resources. Shinan-gun is an administrative district located in the southwestern part of Korea that forms an archipelago with huge tidal flat areas. Since long ago, people’s use of these tidal flats shows a high degree of biocultural diversity. Maeul landscapes also show humans’ adaptation to the natural environment. For instance, strong winds blowing mainly from the northwest have led people in Shinan-gun to create “Ushil,” a windbreak forest with stone blocks to block wind from their villages and agricultural fields. At pres¬ent, the transfer of TEK to future generations is at stake due to socio-economic changes that cause island populations to shrink and age rapidly. Islands are often regarded as good destinations for tourism, but attention should also be given to sustainable development due to the environmental characteristics of islands. International organizations are making efforts to curb the threats of global environmental problems especially on small islands. Their activities are aimed at seek¬ing solutions that stress the central role of biocultural diversity in establishing the sustainable use of natural resources on islands. Joint efforts oflocal people and government authorities to protect and conserve the Maeul landscape should be encouraged.

Abstract

Islands are often habitats to unique species because they have different environmental conditions from the mainland and other islands. Another characteristic of islands is their limited natural resources, which has led island residents to heavily rely on traditional ecological knowledge (TEK) and use resources sustainably. The so-called “Maeul landscape” shows the interrelationship of biological species and people’s use of natural resources. Shinan-gun is an administrative district located in the southwestern part of Korea that forms an archipelago with huge tidal flat areas. Since long ago, people’s use of these tidal flats shows a high degree of biocultural diversity. Maeul landscapes also show humans’ adaptation to the natural environment. For instance, strong winds blowing mainly from the northwest have led people in Shinan-gun to create “Ushil,” a windbreak forest with stone blocks to block wind from their villages and agricultural fields. At pres¬ent, the transfer of TEK to future generations is at stake due to socio-economic changes that cause island populations to shrink and age rapidly. Islands are often regarded as good destinations for tourism, but attention should also be given to sustainable development due to the environmental characteristics of islands. International organizations are making efforts to curb the threats of global environmental problems especially on small islands. Their activities are aimed at seek¬ing solutions that stress the central role of biocultural diversity in establishing the sustainable use of natural resources on islands. Joint efforts oflocal people and government authorities to protect and conserve the Maeul landscape should be encouraged.
