Abstract:
This article by Professor M. Brinchuk is devoted to the role of state in solution of ecological problems. As the author points out, the current state of Russian ecology can be characterised as the state of crisis and there is a number of reasons for it. The key reason in the author’s opinion is the grave lack of will of the state to solve ecological problems. The article contains evaluation of the role of executive, legislative and judicial powers, as well as of the President of the Russian Federation, in protection of the environment. Based on above-mentioned analysis the author comes to a conclusion of low efficiency of the state efforts in the sphere of nature management and protection of environment.

Abstract:
The European Union is the only region in the whole world, where protection of environment is recognized as a high-level goal, comparable to the attaining economical growth.

The authors then conclude that in spite of all the shortcomings, the european way to establish and apply ecological law seems to be the most constructive and developed model in the world, and, importantly, it overcomes the national boundaries, since environment knows no such boundaries.

Abstract:
Ecological policy in the production sphere is an essential element of a well-balanced system of ecological goals, since 80% of negative impact of mass products on environment is defined at the stage of development of such products. For example, many electronic devices are produced with the use of toxic elements, which seep to the environment after such devices are utilized. For some devices, such as freezers, negative impact of their dangerous elements on society still shows decades after their utilization. This article by T.V. Rednikova is devoted to the latest changes in the policy of the European Union, namely, to the study of the Environmental Action Program for 2002 – 2012.

Abstract:
China is much more than merely a geographical term. It stands for one of the brightest cultures of the world civilization. And the Chinese nation has understood the value of environmental culture as an element of human culture for ages and ages. While one can’t say that China is the first state in the world, where ecological legislation was formed, it still is one of the first such states in the world. This is an ongoing process and development aimed to bring Chinese legislation into accord with the international requirements and legislations of foreign states still continues…

Abstract:
The book by Nele Dhondt, which is reviewed in this article, is a detailed stuy of the problems of interweaving of the ecological policy with other policies of the European Union in the light of integration of the environmental needs under the Art. 6 of the European Union Treaty. This book provides us with the analysis of how ecological requirements may and should be considered when the policies in such spheres as agriculture, transportation, power industry (the spheres which account for much of the environmental polution, along with the chemical industry and metal industry) are implemented. Considering that this particular aspect was not sufficently studied in Russia the book is of much interest for the Russian readers.

Abstract:
The achievements in development and realization of the ecological policy in the European Union do not mean that the legal scholars can forget about this sphere of studies. On the opposite, the progress boosts their wish to find new forms of political and legal influence on the behaviour of various subjects of environmental use and protection: people, their associations, enterpreneurs and their unions, government bodies and municipal bodies. The book, review on which you may find in this article, is a fine example of such quest for new measures. It is devoted to the cooperative ecological policy…
