This article examines methodological developments in integrated zoning, which are used in the environmental planning and land use in Brazil. In particular, it focuses on Ecological-Economic Zoning (EEZ), a methodology that has become the primary instrument of territorial planning in the Brazilian government. Throughout its historical development process, EEZ has become an interdisciplinary zoning method, which incorporates various environmental and socio-economic themes. However, there are still several central issues in constant discussion and many challenges to be resolved. Various sides of this discussion are analyzed, and new methodologies are suggested from other research areas, which may contribute to the efficiency of integrated environmental studies.Downloads
