V.A.Vasilenko

Journal "Region: Economics and Sociology", 2008, vol. 1

Abstract: The paper summarizes the foreign and home practices of how communities participate in discussion of projects of ecological importance. The author shows identical and distinguishing features of public participatory procedures in different countries. The author also presents some real examples of how public opinion does influence on the assessment of projects in Russian regions, and the role of new legal instruments which they play to improve national legislation in the sphere of public participatory decision making. The ways of how world’s best practices in this field could be applied in Russian practice are discussed in the article.
