Construire à la montagne

"Building in the Mountains" is a specialized book that addresses the legal framework and challenges of construction in the alpine regions of Switzerland and France. It discusses the impacts of the new constitution and federal legislation on the construction of second homes in tourist areas. The publication brings together contributions from experts who participated in an event at the University of Lausanne in 2021 and offers a comprehensive analysis of the applicable laws as well as various aspects of urbanization in mountain regions. The authors highlight not only the legal provisions for new construction projects but also the existing structures and their legal protection. The book is a valuable resource for professionals dealing with the complex issues of construction, environmental, and nature conservation law in the mountains.
