The Flood Risk Management Plan: An Essential Step Towards the Institutionalization of a Paradigm Shift

‘A dive into floods’: exploring the Dutch implementation of the floods directive

“…This paradigm shift from flood protection towards flood risk management is referred to by several scholars, for instance, Hartmann and Juepner (2014) conclude that the FD's flood risk management plans are not revolutionary, but an important step towards the institutionalization of this ongoing paradigm shift. The FD contributed to a clear and transparent visualization of flood risks, and a clarification of flood policies and measures ensued in the Netherlands.…”

Frontiers of land and water governance in urban regions

“…Spatial planning is thereby more comprehensive and meta-disciplinary than water management, which tends to be more specific and sectoral (Moss, 2009). Whereas water engineers aim to control and regulate the water sector, spatial planning aims for the coordination and integration of many different sector activities (Hartmann & Juepner, 2014).…”

Land for flood risk management: A catchment‐wide and cross‐disciplinary perspective

“…The three options are not entirely new. However, their appropriate combination and effective implementation on the catchment scale seem still to be hampered by a lack of knowledge on the site‐specific multifunctionality of land, catchment‐wide interrelations, and coordinated land governance (Hartmann & Juepner, ; Klijn, Samuels, & van Os, ). Many existing studies on flood risk management focus on selected hydro‐meteorological aspects, vulnerability with resilience of constructions, or management strategies and the governance context.…”
