Geopark is a tape of natural parks,which is advanced by the workers who have been worked in the study of geological heritage protection for a long time. UNESCO defines the Geopark that a Geopark is an area with a geological heritage of significance, with a coherent and strong management structure and where a sustainable economic development strategy is in place. A Geopark creates enhanced employment opportunities for the people who live there bringing sustainable and real economic benefit, usually through the development of sustainable tourism. In the framework of a Geopark, geological heritage and geological knowledge is shared with the broad public and linked with broader aspects of the natural and cultural environment, which are often closely related or determined to geology and landscape. The purposes that UNESCO stressed Geopark establishment are:①protect the geological heritage and its environment;②promote popularization-education on earth science and research;③distribute geological heritage resources rationally to promote continuable development of the region socio-economic. The establishment of Geopark on the one hand realizes the protection of geological relics,on the orther hand successfully promotes local tourism development, enhances local economic strength, increase the employment opportunities of local residents, accomplishes local environmental, economic and cultural development of coordination.The concept of a Geopark aroused the attention of Governments because of its significant comprehensive benefit. There are 138 National Geopark and 141 Provincial Geopark Across all mainland provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions with the approval of Ministry of national land resources since 2000, of which 20 have become World Geopark..Construction of Geoparks in China started relatively late, therefore the research on the Geopark construction and management has lagged behind, and the construction is short of theory guidance. Meanwhile, some problems occurs during the Geopark management oprations such as operating mechanism efficiency is not high, management system is not smooth, relative law and regulation is not enough healthiness. Using the public goods theory, this paper explains the possibility of privately production of public goods beginning with the Geopark property rights. feasibility of the Geopark Property Right Transfer has been revealed and provide a theoretical support for the establishment of efficient operating mechanism .On the basis of learning of the advanced foreign management experience, and combination with china's actual situation, with stakeholders theory as the guide, we are constructing one integrated, authority, unified management system framework of Geopark construction in China. The building of Geopark laws and regulations are discussed, and the various problems in the course of property right transfer are encountered by a standardized from a legal perspective to ensure efficient mechanism and reasonable management system implemented effectively.The dissertation is divided into 6 chapters.Chapter 1: introduction at the core of Reviewing the dynamic research of Geopark at home and abroad ,this chapter Expounded on the origins of this paper, research, the scope of the study, research theory and the purpose of the study, the significance of major and difficulty, the expected results, research methods and the technical route.Chapter 2:Study on Geopark operating mechanism. On the basis of Analysis of geological park in China's property rights situation and existing problems, transfer of property rights become an inevitable choice for China's Geopark . on the guidance of this idea, the feasibility of the transfer of property rights and the problem in the transfer process has been discussed.Chapter 3: Study on Geopark management system. Analyze present management situation of Geopark and the existing problems, with stakeholders theory as the guide, to construct the Geopark management framework by using foreign mature management system for reference .Chapter 4: Chinese Geopark on the legislation. Analyzed China's legal situation of Geopark, summed up the inadequacies of its existence, and put forward legislative proposals on the specific operating mechanism and management system.Chapter 5: A Case Study of Yuntai mountain world Geopark. Intrudoction and evaluation of Yuntaishan Geopark on the present situation and management system, some proposals and methods in perfecting its management are presented.Chapter 6: The main conclusions of the article, innovation and lackness.The main conclusions:①The production attribute which depending on the resources is not the resources attribute itself. The geological relics resources with the state-owned nature, but the Geopark has provided a variety of attributes of products, according to the properties can be divided into public products, private products and quasi-public goods products.②Public goods is not necessarily produced by the Government, they should mainly depend on the efficiency of production. Due to various reasons in the process of the production of public goods, there will be "government failure", on the other hand, because of the particularity of Geopark products, some of the private production of public goods is feasible;③In the development of Geopark, the Government's attention is the key, mainly reflected in the establishment of smooth management system, the displaying of government's service function. The smooth management system should be integrated, authority and unified so as to provide good external environment for the Geopark development;④In view of the question which existed in Geopark legislation, the article proposed that the fundamental law "Geological Park Protection method" should be constructed to make up the legal fault. Aiming at the question which exists in the actual operation, several relative suggestions explicit the property rights ownership of the Geopark, the management right transfer system, the management system, the fund safeguard-control system, the plan system, the supervision system as well as other protective measures suggestion are put forward in this paper;⑤The reason of"Yuntai Effect"is mainly in its efficient management system and government's important attach.But in the operating mechanism"Zhengqibufen"problems still exist in, the law can not exist Follow the situation, hindered its further development, and take the path of the market, separating government from enterprises, strengthen the legal norms, will further promote the development of Yuntaishan.The main innovation of the thesis is that :①The use of Products Theory in the analysis of geopark and the products that Geopark different attributes amend the traditional values that the "state-owned resources are public goods;②In the process of the transfer of property rights, I have proposed to establish two property rights trading market for tourism enterprises and to supervise the measures,all these have a constructive meaning to specific property transfer ;③Stakeholders based on theory and Geopark in China with the actual characteristics, propose to establish leading group in tourism development in the provincial ,under one room, set up a think tank (very body) and six offices, the Office of members and the development of tourism-related departments in charge of the staff component in the establishment of municipal development of the tourism industry, the main city and the development of tourism related departments in charge of the composition of Geoparks by the Tourism Industry Development Board dispatched an independent management body; land and nature resources, land and nature resources department (bureau) is responsible for the operational agencies to send guidance and supervision of the development of Geopark provincial and municipal levels of coordination, interactive, integrated management system;④In the laws and regulations of geopark, clearly put forward that we must protect the property rights in trading market position in the form of law and ensure the progress of property rights transactions smooth and optimize resource allocation.
