| dc.description.abstract | The proposed research intends to assess the possibility of applying the Transfer of the
Right to Build, provided for in the city's statute as a legal instrument to adapt to rising
sea level due to climate change in the Brazilian Coastal Zone, for private properties.
The importance is to determine the effects of climate change, especially the rise in sea
level, property rights, which the Brazilian law has not yet addressed. It can be seen
that the legal system or the Law needs to focus on adapting of the Property Law to
climate change because the rise in sea level is reality that will not be extinguished
overnight, even to cease gas emissions from Planet in the greenhouse. As a result of
this situation, the loss of property, or the affected right to build or build on private
property, especially in the Brazilian Coastal Zone, is still not current concern in Brazil,
despite the disasters that affect the Brazilian coast. The approach begins with the study
of the IPCC reports on climate change, focused especially on sea level rise, in addition
to the consequences already identified in the field of disaster, and an analysis of how
Disasters Law deals with climate change today. In order to contextualize the Coastal
Zone, the study points out its characteristics and the legal discipline on this space,
within the scope of the federation units, observing the legislation and instruments that
the Municipalities, state capitals located on the coast, are using the Coastal Zone
management. Finally, in addition to the analysis of the Master Plans of these
Municipalities on the adaptation to sea level rise, the study focuses on the Transferable
Development Right as a legal instrument to compensate the private owner, whose
property is affected by the increase in the level sea. American studies are presented
in the research, to support proposals to adapt through the Transferable Development
Right as a way to compensate the private owner, and at the end, it concludes by the
possibility of its application. | en |
