Abstract/Description:

The chapter aims at setting up the legal notion of environment in such a way to include landscape and to consider as a unicum the harmonious integration of urban development and what surrounds it. On this basis, taxes and para-fiscal levies implementing the relationship between urban contexts and environment are analyzed, focusing on “minor” measures such as road pricing, vehicle taxes, tourist taxes – urban perequative instruments.
